Moderation is important in today's world, compare the massive work twitter, instagram et al have had to do as a result of the Christchurch massacre.

How does this scenario work with pixelfed? I take it that the content is hosted on a specific server and that the pixelfed app is just a frontend that knows how to find that server. Is abuse reporting built in to the app somehow? How does the end user know that action is being taken? How can law enforcement close down pages?

Note that legal liability for hosting illegal content may be huge. There is one 18-year old in NZ who is being charged and threatened with 14 years jailtime for sharing the terrorist video from the mosque massacre. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&object...
Use some Prolog embedded/implemented in Ruby/Python, then you can import all the host language tools/libraries.
Maybe the tribal identity is muted in good times, when the greater, more complex societal organization offers advancement and the reasonable hope of attaining goals.

But when inequality increases, when a grim determinism seems to hover over all fates, then the tribe is more appealing. So people make them, or draw into them. And tribal allegiance requires demonstration.

Here, students who already suspect they'll get the short end of the stick in the years ahead signal tribal allegiance, as it becomes a growing power in the world. Smart, I guess. But sad if you believe(d) in the complex society.
> What if HN, Twitter, Reddit mods, etc. were asked by the company to stifle any dissent against it, and obliged, where would you go?

Huh? Why would you expect any of those entities to oblige such a request? Other than perhaps some Reddit mods, depending on the subreddit.

I see that they had a goal of 10% by volume[0], I'd really like to see the numbers behind how they'll get that, compared to where there are at now on that. I have my doubts on that number or on any serious execution, sounds dead on arrival:

"By 2020 China wants all gasoline sold in the country to contain 10% ethanol by volume, which is what the United States currently mandates with its Renewable Fuel Standard. Building an ethanol industry is a necessary first step to building the Chinese bioeconomy, but there's a long way to go. China currently produces about 800 million gallons per year (mgpy) of ethanol, with about 500 mgpy derived from corn. Based on expected gasoline demand of 45 billion to 50 billion gallons, to meet the 10% ethanol blending rules in 2020, the country would need between 4 billion and 5 billion gallons of ethanol per year.

It will be nearly impossible to site, build, and ramp up enough new production capacity to supply demand from domestic production alone by 2020. That's why many industry experts expect the Chinese government to turn to ethanol imports to fill the gap -- and only the American market has enough spare capacity to cash in on the opportunity."[1]

>It is such a horrible programming model, though.

It's an honest programming model that can deal with real life. A lot of modern systems converged to Kay's OOP model, except the implementations are implicit and created by continuously tripping over problems that were already solved in the 80s.

JavaScript is SmallTalk minus elegance, minimalism and orthogonality.

Web pages with JavaScript are self-interpreting data in the exact same sense Kay's objects are.

Microservices are crude, bloated objects that communicate through routed messages.

Containers are a validation of Kay's idea that sharing encapsulated objects is easier than sharing data.

Most people commenting here about SmallTalk either never watched any of Kay's talks, or simply are too dumb to understand what he is talking about.

>But in-process?

Most of the real programming problems these days are not in-process.

If trade school were truly competitive with college and University in terms of offerings, I don't imagine the Escalator Mechanic program would require more time or work than our lower and middle-class could afford.
For now at least it is a "web first" experience.

I think more things should be "web first". Today even Reddit keeps tirelessly pushing an app - for a web site!
so... properties that require a steeper learning curve, a system that's worse far worse than JPA+Spring Data (or you could use the hibernate in both languages - a java development), another word for var/let, I'd disagree about generics, var/let again, I wonder what rust devs would say about these null inline conditionals that require more knowledge, and... yield is actually neat if also not another non-traditional baggage thing to learn. Anyhow, I guess my take is that Rust is a better language than C# in all the ways that C# might be better than Java and more... Except that C# is a lot like Java and is the language of choice if you use Unity - so it does have a big awesome ugly library that Java does not have. Really we should feel sorry about all the Unity baggage C# devs get to deal with. Then there's Microsoft land, which has not inspired me of code quality and can't get out of VB think.
Welders and Mechanics in training are allowed to take English or History classes, they just have to go to a different school for that because trades are not integrated into most traditional colleges.
If all you really want to do is sequester the sand, why not deploy some large solar concentrators to roam the desert and fuse the sand into larger grains? It would obviously take a while, but you could have relatively unintelligent, solar powered drones just gliding over the sand and sticking it to itself. Bonus if you can figure out how to fuse the sand into bricks, or 3d print walls of fused sand.

So, here is the thing. Modern browsers (at least Firefox and Chromium, haven't tried the others in a while) have AWESOME autocomplete widgets for their URL bars.

They incorporate multiple data sources (URLs and page titles from history, bookmarks, the search engine's keyword autocompletion, probably more), build statistical models (when I start typing "y" I want to go to Youtube 95% of the time, so suggest that first), don't clobber my paste buffer even though they pre-select some text, and so on. Awesome all around.

Could we PLEASE get this exact same widget with pluggable data sources available as a HTML <input> element or similar?

Every time I build a web app, I feel that the user experience could be so much better if I had such an awesome autocomplete widget available. None of the javascript implementations come even close.
I get Java needs it because some uses need the performance gain in terms of less ram and less pointer interdirection. I'm glad library authors of like servers or caches will be able to improve performance without weird things like unsafe byte buffers and native memory leaks.

I suspect I won't ever use value types in my code though unless it's drop in to refactor from AnyVal=>AnyRef (or w/e the java equiv is).

* Does accepting a value type parameter accept it by value or by ref?
* How does this play with GC? Can I get dangling ref with value type?
* How does value types play with inheritance e.g. will it be like c# and struct and they will be boxed any time treated as ref?
* How safe will it be to convert a class from being value type based to Object (w/e AnyRef equiv is). Will I need to inspect all methods that deal it now?

This can probably just be resolved with a style guide like c++ can be mostly sane if you're starting a new project today with an aggressive style guide, but I just appreciated not think about this and just count on escape analysis + gc + hotspot tricks like monomorphize code paths with some counters to be good enough.
Are there any building management firms that have full time mechanics? Given that escalators and elevators are transporting people it seems like it would be easy to justify having someone directly responsible with its operation (like a tram driver).

That's a great goal, but I'm not sure how we get there.

Trade unions have a delicate balance between safety/compensation and cheaper labor alternatives. Developers want to maximize the efficiency of their capital and in construction, human resources are fungible.

Europe does a much better job of OH&S for tradespeople but if you look around there isn't nearly as much being built. America is the economic powerhouse it is in part because of the typically-low cost of human labor and other economies are going through the same thing now.

I don’t really see how, if you sincerely believe something, you can be afraid to listen to an argument in case it dissuades you of it. That seems to me to be a blatant disregard for whether what you ‘believe’ is actually true.

Furthermore it is also a blatant disregard for whether what you think someone means is actually what they are saying. That really is bad faith in a pretty raw form.

>”Suppose your law firm wants a summer associate. A law student with a doctorate in philosophy from Stanford applies. What do you infer? The applicant is probably brilliant, diligent, and willing to tolerate serious boredom.”

I feel dedicated people with an above average IQ could achieve similar things, but this sort of pedigree tends to speak more towards socioeconomic class than sheer intelligence. Where intelligence and high socioeconomic class seem to be a signaling with degrees from impressive schools.

Makes me wonder how many smart working class kids we are missing out on. The high IQ kids who went to schools not ranked in the top 100, those that would have excelled at MIT but for whatever reason never applied and now does who knows what, not performing to their potential. We have so much inbreeding, where we continually get the same kids from the same backgrounds missing out on an entire segment of the population.
So many of them, all so good...

UBI would have the same effect as raising minimum wage always always always meets with- a raised cost of living. Cap maximum wages instead, and force revenue back down to its origins.

Books have been great, the more difficult the more nutritious. But the more nutritious they are, the harder they are to digest, so I don't recommend trying to read too many at a time.

Books themselves are also a great resource to find other great resources. Generally things that attract your attraction are the ones which give the best ROI. Books are a great place to find this, as you can trace a source and really consume it. Books like Tools of Titans are better off as a directory for discovery rather than read end to end.

Classics are worth reading when you find yourself pacing over an idea a few times. Discussing a lot of capitalism? Pick up The Wealth of Nations sometimes. Need help getting into the flow? Read the original book on Flow, by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi.

I do want something that highlights good new tools and trends. Product Hunt feels a little too sponsored. HN is great, with good critical feedback, but it's biased towards the older crowd.

Facebook has been the source for 80% of my discoveries, but it's got a terrible signal-noise ratio. Only about 5% of FB is actually useful. But it gives a lot of anecdotal information about the rest of the world around me. I'd love to quit FB if possible though. A big part of my frustration with it is that dangerous misinformation is so abundant and spreads more easily than actual information. I don't see myself using FB actively in the next 5 years.

Reddit is fun, but I picked up nothing useful from my time there.

Browsing foreign job ads is a good way to see what's going on in the rest of world, and where the trends are flowing. There's a tendency for people to cargo cult tech that's just popular in their area, but this is a good way of seeing patterns.
The matching should probably be case insensitive unless there are two options that differ only by case. In that case (pun intended), prefer the one that more closely matches the user’s input.

I find "smart case" is a nice solution here.
The filtering should only be case-sensitive if the input has an uppercase letter.
It is too bad that so many people are so quick to put an -ism label on anyone and anything which they do not agree with, without giving a moments thought to whether that label is really applicable and whether such overuse of the terms might end up doing more harm than (supposed) good.

It is even worse that this attitude is so prevalent in institutes of higher education where an open mind to a different view is essential for the institute to achieve its intended purpose.

Were this all confined to the realm of digital communications I'd suggest implementing rules around the misuse of -ism labels so that the negative effects of a misapplied label would backfire, something akin to a moderation system. As it stands now it is totally free of consequence to heap someone with a bucket of -isms in the hope that some of them will stick.

>adtac has succeeded in reducing download to just 11 kB and isn’t done yet

Someone raised an issue to support Brotli in Commento (which I wasn't aware of) [1] and I did a quick test; it'd decrease the JS+CSS payload even further to under 8-9 KB. Nearly all modern browsers support Brotli [2], so I'm really looking forward to this.

I now realise this could be a modern take on the famous C10K problem, just with a different meaning: developing web services with under 10 kilobytes of payload :)

You can call Spring (boot) over-engineered. I call it feature full and extensible.

Whereas in the modern JS world, you start out with a lean project and then add small libraries from NPM that all work slightly different for every feature you need, in the Spring world where the framework has matured for 10+ years most of the things you will need are in the box or are available as external libraries that all work on the same defined interfaces.

Spring Boot with Java 11 or Kotlin are still my preferred backend stack for that reason. It’s solid, has aged well and makes me super productive.

An irrelevant one in this case. This report needs to find out the technical/training/... reason, not why the other pilot needed a ride. I'm sure they'd have included it if they wanted to recommend having three pilots on every flight.

This appears to answer the question of why, given that there is a "memory item" for dealing with runaway trim that would have helped, it wasn't followed by the crew:

> “They didn’t seem to know the trim was moving down,” the third source said. “They thought only about airspeed and altitude. That was the only thing they talked about.”

If this is true, not only did the pilots not realize the trim was the cause of the dive and try to fix it, it seems that they didn't even realize the trim wheel was moving.

"Runaway trim" would be something they trained for, but has a presentation so vastly different (of a visibly spinning trim wheel causing quick descent) as to not be recognizably the same emergency to these pilots.

Of course, this crew had no way of knowing that there was a system on the plane that could slowly make erroneous trim changes over a long period with autopilot off, and it makes sense that they might miss it happening while focusing on their stall alerts and speeds and trying to come up with an explanation and also trying to retain control.
