To use this for anything serious, you have to know exactly how these images are built. In fact, you should just build them all from the source yourself. Consequences of using unvetted compilers/toolchain are severe, and pulling build tools from Docker Hub is something you should often try to avoid.

I like the idea in practice. Assuming you're already on a cross-compiled project, this could vastly make your job easier and you can script around this very easily.
Make no mistake, Nazi is still being hated, it is just that people aren't that sensitive about its presence. The Nazi costume had appeared in various cosplay exhibitions in China before, and people who aren't aware of the context think it is just some good looking uniform.

Until the photos spreaded, controversy follows, then it gets banned.
> Rust skips (or almost skips) some of those steps. If you can write code that compiles, you can also write code that works. It forces you to be very specific about your intentions, which isn't possible in language with less-thorough type systems and compile-time checks.

Forcing new programmers to be specific about intentions they may not even know they are supposed to have doesn't necessarily work.

> I agree that the curve is steeper at first, but it's arguably impossible to write code that "works well and is readable" in C/C++ (which is why we have Rust in the first place). That makes the latter part of the learning curve an asymptote.

I don't agree with your analysis of "works wells and is readable". It's not too to write C code that works well and is readable. Sure, your code might occasionally break–but the point is that it works most of the time. This isn't necessarily a good mindset to have as a software engineer, but with regards to the specific claim that Rust is easier than C: it's not, because it enforces better practices, which is mental overhead and complexity that C doesn't need to deal with.

I use mullvad. But even if I ran my own I’d not have full control over everything there’d always be some chance I could get snooped on. I use it mostly to get around region locks.
I’m not seeing how water is relevant here. OP seems to think decreasing demand is better than increasing supply. I’m not convinced that it is, though another reply comparing it to painting deserts back does raise a fairly good point.
I agree they aren't universal, so it's not so useful for first-time users, but once you get to learn them I find they help a lot with scanning and recognition.
The whole takeaway from that is "it's difficult and I, the author, doesn't think it'll work because it's difficult". With lots of hand-picked examples of shortcomings of implementation loosely collected into a semicoherent justification for nuclear energy.

I'm all for nuclear energy, if it can be done safely. (The cost might be too high for it to be commercially viable, but if it's worth doing the state can subsidize for the good of humanity).

But that blog post does not succeed in making any sort of case for why solar and wind won't be enough.
Interesting point. I’m not sure there’s really any way I can estimate the difference there.
"The policy approved by the supervisors prohibits utility-oriented renewable energy projects — defined as projects that would mostly serve out-of-town utility customers, rather than local power needs"

Well they don't seem to be banned. And seemingly they would be in favour of renewables for their own use. So disconnect them from the grid, add renewables and battery storage, that would seem to please everyone?
Change working directory seans like the most stupid idea i ever heard... That would make:

This will probably stop working.

From the bottom of the article:

"There is one way the timing is odd, though. In order to treat incognito browsers differently, a website needs to be able to determine that they’re incognito browsers. Earlier this month, it came out that Google Chrome, the web’s most popular browser, was working to prevent sites from doing just that. Code that blinds servers to private browsing has already been added to the current Canary version of Chrome (a version used for early developer testing). New features in Canary, if all goes well, typically roll out to the standard Google Chrome in three or four months — so this sort of tactic will likely break by summer in the browser that currently has 63 percent market share.

By the way, I tested this out: Running the current Google Chrome Canary (74.0.3718.0) and turning on the internal setting for the change (#enable-filesystem-in-incognito in chrome://flags) meant the Times suddenly lost its ability to detect incognito mode."
Perhaps we should think about how to promote renewable power, e.g. new business model which gives direct benefit (may be short term) to the people.
That's not how journalism is supposed to work. One of the first lessons in Journalism 101 is if one source says the weather is sunny and another source says it's raining then a competent reporter should look out the window!

It would help if you disclosed your budget and the name of your preferred wireless carrier.

A used Google Pixel XL in good condition is currently priced around $100-$130 on eBay, and supports all U.S. carriers. This model is on LineageOS 15.1, but should be upgraded to 16.0 once a technical issue is resolved. The Google Pixel XL's PassMark rating is just over 40% higher than that of the Samsung Galaxy S6, and it packs a good camera and an above-average 3,450 mAh battery.

If you're looking for something more recent, a used Moto Z2 Force is in the $100-$150 price range, but comes with compromises. Its PassMark score is about twice that of the Galaxy S6, but its camera is weaker than the Pixel XL's and it only has a 2,730 mAh battery. On the other hand, the Moto Z2 is a modular phone and is compatible with a range of Moto Mod accessories, including extended batteries. The Z2 Force already supports LineageOS 16, and the unlocked version works on all U.S. carriers. Its screen is shatterproof, but susceptible to scratches, so a screen protector is highly recommended.

OnePlus phones are also good options, but they're mostly limited to GSM carriers. If you're in India, South Korea, or another country with compatible cellular bands, the Xiaomi Pocophone F1 offers excellent value with a fast processor, a good camera, and a large battery.

I mean that it's not an absolutely set necessary conclusion that stuff can't get funded equally well without paywalls. It might require different cultural norms, different ways to organize people or many other solutions, but IN PRINCIPLE the resources are available and could be available without paywalls.

And other than securing funding, there's nothing else positive about paywalls (although I'll admit there's potential arguments around ideas like people appreciating things more when they have to pay for them — things that still don't anywhere near outweigh all the negatives that paywalls have)
That's only for the most obvious of cases lacking any nuance. Further in such cases the lawyers take much of the recovered so the plaintiff collects pennies on the dollar - while risking their professional reputation.

Its a matter of degree, Companies know they can screw employees under a certain amount where its not worth it to challenge them in court. With court costs as high as they are that amount is in the tens of thousands of dollars.
That's not an accurate description of Triplebyte, which isn't affiliated with YC beyond being funded by YC, just like numerous other startups trying to fix hiring have been. Presumably they work with tons of non-YC companies since they'd be dumb not to. (Also, I'd be shocked if they did the kind of data sharing you're talking about, because it sounds like a bad thing to do and also a dumb one). You might be thinking of YC's Work at a Startup program? That is a bit closer to what you describe, though hopefully not bad (or dumb) either!
Why? Other than an academic exercise, what's the point? One could make plenty of arguments for why Rust is a better language than C, but...if it ain't broke, etc. This seems like an enormous exercise with little if any payoff, and unless the core Emacs community decides to jump on board, it's just a pointless fracturing.

>If the company's BATNA is forcing you through cheaper binding arbitration rather than a more expensive lawsuit, you're not going to get as good of settlement offers in lieu of the formal dispute resolution process.

That's only because of the bias in the current system. Ideally, given a set of facts and law, a damage calculation should be fairly objective. Thus both the arbitrator and the judge should come to similar outcomes. Because of this, settlement in a fair arbitration system should come pretty close to settlement in the courts.

The reason pre-arbitration settlements are ineffective is that the arbitration system is broken. It's being used as a rubber stamp court by the institutions that pay the arbitrator's salary. Thus there is little incentive for them to settle at any reasonable amount. In a fair arbitration there would be an incentive to settle because the employer would not control the arbitrator and thus the outcome.

I grant that perhaps settlements in arbitration may still be a bit lower than settlements in the courts because the huge time and cost investment are no longer a factor . . . but that's hardly a bad thing.

Like many issues there is not going to be a black and white yes or no answer. It's going to depend on the exact locale, the nature/type of terrain in the region, the type/specification/quantity of panels being installed, and a million other variables. When newspapers start getting into topics like this it invariable just ends up with corruption and bias as the conclusion is often whatever the executive team decides the newspapers' stance should be, which is going to be driven by politics, advertising, etc.

Ask somebody who wants to claim that solar farms can cause dust storms and he'll be able to make a sound logical case for it. Ask somebody wants to claim that solar farms do not cause dust storms and he'll be able to make a sound logical case for it. Even if the person reporting genuinely wanted, and was able (e.g. - not prevented by the newspapers 'official' stance on an issue) to do that, they simply would be grossly unqualified to do so. Reporters rarely have any sort of scientific background whatsoever.
This is clearly a redesign done by someone who doesn't use GitHub, and doesn't look at anything but the main screen or why it is the way it is - especially when you start digging into the rest of the UI.

The tabs they want to take away from the "code" screen have little or nothing to do with the other main tabs, that's why they're not cluttering up the main nav bar (which doesn't fit into the author's screenshots.

No one cares about the description of the repo if they're trying to interact with the wiki or the issues modes, that's why it's in the code/main section.
What I have found with any relational database that has this kind of JSON storage option(MySQL, PostgresSQL) is that you can take some kind of data that arrives via 3rd party as JSON and just dump it straight into the db as JSON as opposed to having to create a schema for it.

It's nice to have the option for the data to still be queryable without having to make it a first class schema with all schema setup involved.

It isn't for 1st class data that is used frequently. But when you might only need the data on occassion its nice to have productivity-wise.

>That means statements like “black people are monkeys” and “Koreans are the scum of the earth” are subject to removal. But then, so is “men are trash.”

>See the problem? If you remove dehumanizing attacks against gender, you may block speech designed to draw attention to a social movement like #MeToo. If you allow dehumanizing attacks against gender, well, you’re allowing dehumanizing attacks against gender. And if you do that, how do you defend other “protected” groups from similar attacks?

I'm not sure if the author is taking a pretty objective approach to the problem and therefore considering all possibilities, or if they really unironically believe what's stated in the second paragraph, but in any case, especially the latter, I am shocked about this line of thinking.

The dissonance between how you would like to treat men, and how you would like to treat women and how you believe all genders should be treated the same versus the second paragraph should be the end of the argument.

The fact that a conversation like this even takes place is absurd. It's lawyering a way apply restrictions on one group while making another group exempt from the rule. The motivations are clear, how can a company even entertain these ideas, let alone implement them.

Well here it’s more a self published pdf than a book. It didn’t pass a publisher screening nor got an ISBN so it’s hardly a "real" book.
Deserts are often teeming with life. The term refers to rainfall, not population. There are plants and animals equally deserving of protection, and it is worth protecting for the same reason any other biome is. If you look for beauty and balance there you might find it.

Covering them with solar panels disrupts the environment and displaces it’s inhabitants.

Low expectations, soft bigotry. The elites who are calling these shots have every opportunity to educate themselves, even regarding 6/4, but certainly with regard to the rest of human history.

Rust is not a good language for new programmers. Neither is C for that matter. You shouldn't start learning Rust before you have solid intuitions of programming concepts like ownership, scope and mutability.

What is your 1W of electricity going to do though? It going to power something, lets say a phone, so the phone needs building in a factory, with materials mined and pumped from the ground.

Electricity use implies 'stuff'. Our production of 'stuff' is nowhere near being environmentally sound.

So 1W hitting the desert floor is nothing like 1W hitting a solar panel.
The point of the article is that unreliable energy like wind and solar with 35% and 25% capacity factors is extremely challenging to scale beyond those numbers. Large-scale low-carbon systems that are 24/7 reliable regardless of how windy or sunny it is may be more effective.

Lots of people are promoting 50/50 mixes of intermittent/unreliable renewables + nuclear.

The author of the article thinks the renewables are problematic and our money would be better spent just going for 24/7 reliable clean energy sources.
On the other hand, the latest two OnePlus phones (6 and 6T), the older of which was released 9 months ago, still aren't supported.

True, but when writing a 2D card game, aiming for an engine capable of doing 3D VR at 120fps is probably a bit too much.

Exactly. Can the dust be mitigated? Maybe via replanting afterwards? Or maybe the panels need to be farther apart to encourage regrowth of plants? Is a square field of panels more destructive than a longer line of panels? Are there construction vehicles that can cause less damage to the existing plant life?

If journalism can't be bothered to do research maybe the rise of AI created factuals is well deserved.
Tangentially related: PowerShell offers something similar for XML and JSON.

# XML:

$Data. <tab> # browse the file with <tab> and <.>

# JSON:
$Data = (Get-Content Data.json | ConvertFrom-Json)
$Data. <tab> # browse the file with <tab> and <.>

Similar in concept and certainly useful. I'm happy to see this project!

Most of the debuggers I use would be fine with a line printer, at the level of sophistication I'm capable of using them. A pager would be ok, as long as you're using more and not less.

I use plenty of interactive tools in a terminal, but almost all of them are screen oriented, very few are line oriented.

I would say the distinguishing thing to make something usable on a printer / a real teletype is that the paper only moves in one direction.
