So did they ban comments as the headline indicates or just default disable them. Default disable seems much more reasonable to me, let creators decide if they want to moderate comments but keep them default off so family videos don't have to deal with that.
This assumes the KPIs were created and "promised" by those responsible for them rather than handed down from above. Which seems unlikely given everything else I've read about this company.
This is very old news. Apple has explained why they collate this data, how it is used and the tight security surrounding it. And they make it simple to switch off. The article stupidly implied that the setting is buried—no, not having any interface at all is burying it. Apple was under no obligation to surface this data in the UI, let alone with the clarity and detail in which they did.

If you're a privacy paranoid—well you shouldn't have a smartphone at all—but if you have an iPhone, at the very least I'd expect you to comprehensively circumnavigate the privacy section in Settings. It's all quite clearly organised and labelled. If you're serious about your privacy and you didn't do that, you're not very good at being a privacy paranoid.

This is the type of decision-making the authors of the Green New Deal need to grapple with. E.g., the Green New Deal calls for high speed rail everywhere. But when you actually try to build HSR people in affected communities file lawsuits and force decisions that increase the cost, slow down trains and delay construction. For the Green New Deal to actually happen, the federal government would need to override local decision-making.
Had me curious as to which dev domains are still available.

The domain search for ".dev" domains on Google is broken for me: https://domains.google/tld/dev/ I go there, enter a proposed domain, and click the search button.

It asks you to sign in, then just shows me a header with a blank page. Like this: https://imgur.com/a/7MgLQx1

Edit: Hmm. Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?[long query cut out]' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

They choose to be ignorant of it.

The federal government even publishes per mile total costs for most vehicles that makes it fairly trivial to do.

It’s a bullshit metric. They could honestly present the information in a way that looked good for them as well... or even use it as a cross sell for solar.
I'll upvote any article that contains the term "electron hydrodynamics".

More seriously, it's the viscosity of electron flow which is fascinating. "In previous work, our group found that electron flow in graphene can have a viscosity as high as 0.1 m2s-1, which is 100 times higher than that of honey" [0]

Cringeworthy quote

"Through the power of natural selection, its descendants developed traits ..."
I agree with the first part of the title, the only thing I've read.

I completely disagre with the second part: full stack developers are not stuck because full-stack is bad per se, they have chosen to not master one single skill, preferring instead to learn many of them, with a varying level of confidence, from master to "I can learn it, if needed".
But who is promising it? It's not like the individuals that work in the teams tasked to work on the weekends is the same individuals that promise these KPI-numbers?

Even so, can you really claim that they are not pushed towards nearly impossible goals? It's very common to not reach a goal for a gazillion of reasons, forcing people to work weekends while you yourself get all the money from it is being an asshat.
So... how else would that even work?

In my experience null pointers and unassigned variables were a big problem in C an C++. But in java? They were never something that really caused a major issue. Most of them turn up in tests and are really easy to fix because you get an exception stack. Very few turn up in production and often it is because something else failed at runtime to cause it. If the null pointer wasn't there you would have had to deal with that other failure anyway.

Here you're defining syntax around your orthographic definition of what a word is.

The opinion words "really" and "in your opinion" added into that syntactic structure parallel the manner that opinion word "bloody" is added into a lexical structure to become "abso-bloody-lutely".

If you expect to be a generalist by somewhat half heartedly knowing how to use a number of technologies you're doing it wrong. What makes you a generalist is not just being able to use tools, but rather understanding how they work. That means for web frontend work you should rather step towards understanding how the dom and v8 works instead of jumping on the newest hyped framework or instead of just learning react's api maybe also understand how and why they are building their own virtual dom. If you do backend work you eventually want to look into compilers and understand the difference between interpreting, compiling and jit-ing code. If you do database things you may want to start thinking about how you would implement your own and touch on things like transactions, consistency, how a query optimizer works or what structures data is stored in. Not that you will ever be tasked with building your own frontend library, language, compiler or database; but all that helps you immensely to understand and evaluate the tradeoff space and also quickly jump on the newest hyped thing if it actually is a good idea.
Yeah it's like the developers don't even know how to lobby. They should take a lesson from e.g. Foxconn, who had everyone important in Wisconsin wrapped around their finger.
This is a weird nit, and I might be wrong, but isn't the "pl" extension usually used with Perl scripts?
To start, I would choose systems and languages that have, so far, stood the test of time as there's no reason to think those won't be around for 100 more years. I would write the code to solve the exact problem and not try and create some application framework that would allow for any feature request because you don't know what is going to happen in 2 years much less 98. I would do the absolute simplest thing necessary to solve the problem. The goal is to minimize the surface for bugs to manifest. I would use plain text for storage. I would strictly avoid anything "flavor of the week."

This is old code, but it has sparked a great discussion here.

In the 1980s I spent months writing a prototype planning system in Common Lisp (which is a primary language for me, and I wrote a CL book for Springer-Verlag back then). Even though I was a Prolog novice, I was able to rewrite my entire prototype in Prolog in one week. Admittedly this was because the second implementation of something is always easier, but also because Prolog was such a good fit to this particular problem.

I remember reading The Fifth Generation Computer about Japan’s AI efforts - enjoyed the book but it didn’t really click for me, mostly because I had a Lisp Machine and considered that the `one true path` for AI development at the time.

I’d write it in math. The entire thing as close to pure mathematical notation as possible. As truly annoying as it could be to complete the process, depending on the project size and software complexity. It’s the only thing I’d trust to survive ANYTHING the next 100 years could throw at the work.

The availability of software designed to “compute math” is something I am prepared to bet on lasting the next 100 years.
I see no reason why a backend web developer wouldn't know html/css and pure js to an acceptable level. You don't have to be a Node.JS ninja on the frontend but definitely have a good grasp of what's going on on the frontend. People who can only do one thing will have a harder time leading teams or going to management.

Easily readable and based on text files is a good way to last a long time. Yes, you can make bad code in php, but you can also do that with any language. It's also easy to make simple, useful code in php which is why it stays around.
This looks really interesting. How does it compare to something like spacemacs? I'm confused by all the different "flavors" of emacs. I think I would prefer something like doom to spacemacs since, from the looks of it, you stay inside the terminal. If I want a gui, I'll just use VS Code.

Thank you for the recommendations!

Well written article (or is it an excerpt from Montgomery's book, itself discussing an excerpt from another book? I can't quite tell). My ADHD didn't stand a chance and I couldn't stop reading.

From my experience, I am certain that animals' feelings are intuitively compatible with those of humans, and concur with the suggestion that "anthropodenial" is more of a fallacy than anthropomorphism is typically thought to be.

I've raised many creatures and interacted with them throughout their lives, as have many people. I am confident most people who have experienced this would agree that interspecies communication can happen intuitively (I didn't receive any particular training yet managed strikingly complex communication with creatures as small as a sparrow). I wonder if this is an instinct, and whether it corresponds to some evolutionary advantage that would kick in after basic needs (read: self-defense, hunting) are met.
Stuart Geman (one of the inventors of Gibbs Sampling) always used to say, “Parameters are the death of an algorithm.”
I have a master in interaction design and I'm being critical of my own field.

EDIT: Also, no, I did not misunderstand what skeuomorphism is, your own definition of it is what is too limited. Using fake depth and shadows on a design element to give it a 3D look like a real-world button is a form of skeuomorphism, because it relies on an understanding of real-world buttons that can be pushed.

2 jobs ago there was 2 senior techs and 4 junior techs for about ~7000 user/device MSP. The other senior tech quit and was never replaced. I worked 60-80 hour weeks from that point forward. The boss was a micromanager who publicly put me down on a regular basis saying I'm not working hard enough or my work was substandard.

How did I get out? There was a day that virtually everyone was out of the office. I was working on a project and the junior most guy was sinking on his phonecall so I dropped what I was doing, even though I would take shit for not getting it done, and helped the junior guy.

While I was helping him, we missed a phonecall and the IT manager cunt goes to the boss and tells him that I was looking out the window.

The boss brings me into his office and starts chewing me out bigtime. Tells me monday morning I have to come in and beg for my job and if even 1 person doesn't want me on the team. I'm fired.

Well, no, so I wouldn't say that, but, OTOH, saying that might be problematic from an employment noon-discrimination standpoint.

This looks really neat! I noticed that it talks about how to call command line programs from my own webassembly program. Does it talk about techniques that could be used for package management, where someone publishes webassembly binaries and people consume them in their own webassembly binary? If so, does that work even when the webassembly "packages" are written in different languages?

As a general rule, the Emacs faith does not proselytise.

That being said, welcome to the GNU side, oh brethren! Your official Texinfo manuals and GNU Emacs reference cards are already in the electronic post.

If it's the same situation as for pharma in the US (the US spends a ton on it, medical expenses are way higher than in most of the world), my "ignorant" comments are still warranted.

It doesn't matter. It didn't matter for all the people in East Germany the communists took away and tortured and often murdered. It certainly didn't matter in the Soviet Union, either. Your silence and self-censorship won't matter in the end. The Soviets often just targeted random people because it chilled dissent overall.

Silent or not, party member or not, you will be dragged from your home in the night and never seen again. This is the reality of what it was like.

>Here you're defining syntax around your orthographic definition of what a word is.

No, I'm not. As I said, there is no unit in English (regardless of whether or not it is written as a single word) that both behaves like a verb and has a distinct future form.

>The opinion words "really" and "in your opinion" added into that syntactic structure parallel the manner that opinion word "bloody" is added into a lexical structure to become "abso-bloody-lutely".

You seem to have missed that fact that even if you remove "really" and "in your opinion", the unit you identified as a verb is still broken up in the example I gave. In "Is he to see her tomorrow?", "is-to-see" is not a contiguous unit. Although the idea of treating the subject pronoun as a verbal infix might be charming (English as Mohawk!), the subject could be a much larger phrase, as in e.g. "Is the man in the red hat to see her tomorrow?"

It is simply not true that adjunction of adverbials has the same properties as expletive infixation. Even if there is some loose analogy between these two processes, I fail to see how it's relevant to units defined in terms of a single "beat in speaking".
Now that’s some hacktivism!
If Israel and the united states have the right to invade into other countries because those countries are training and sponsoring terrorism, India has full right to attack Pakistan's terrorist bases whether those are close to Islamabad or not (remember US Seals killed Osama in Pakistan). Historically it is proven that Pakistan is the breeding ground all of the world's terrorism problems.
It is a lisp, with visual similarities to clojure. Library access is irrelevant. The features that differentiate clojure are not there.

- Immutable and persistent data structures as the default

- Functional programming (no early returns or mutable bindings) as the default

- Reader literals for those data structures

- Concurrency primitives (including core.async)

- Protocols for polymorphism

From the hy docs: "Hy derives a lot from Clojure & Common Lisp, while always maintaining Python interoperability". Borrowing nice features where you find them is great, but it doesn't make it either a common lisp dialect or a clojure dialect. It just makes it a lisp with some similar stuff.
