The Paris Metro was inaugurated in 1900, and the RER in 1977, so this is unlikely. (It would be possible to run pipes through tunnels before the inauguration, but works on the Metro started no earlier than 1898).

> Certainly, using such categories for job and housing advertisements should not be allowed. But if I'm reading Facebook's announcement correctly targeting on race and gender is being completely removed

The problem is "such categories" is squishy. What about elective medical treatments? What about vacation deals (often partially sponsored by real estate interests)?

There is a broad, broad spectrum between "elective frivolity" and "hidden opportunity" in advertising, and who are you to make that decision? Step out of the obvious counterexamples and scary edge cases abound.

I mean, yeah, advertising "soda for women" or whatever isn't going to harm anyone who doesn't see the ad. But would you say it's OK if I pitch my startup camp to asians only?
Thanks for the feedback! I'll be adding it to the list.

Do we think this is maybe more of a mom trait than a dad trait? I know I have posted maybe a couple images of my children (2, 7, and 11) over the last 11 years. My wife on the other hand posts at least twice a day with images and quotes. I wonder if woman sort of use Facebook as a sort of "shared" baby book for their little cubs?
I accidentally put mine through a wash cycle, the buds not the charging case, and amazingly they survived! The sound was muffled for a while. Would not recommend as a solution to your cleanliness problem them.
A couple of guesses:

a. The web server hosting the tilde directories is very much likely older than the main site.

b. As any uni user can put any HTML on these directories Perhaps not supplying their certificate is an attempt to lower the success of phishing attempts for the main site logins.
Agreed, this almost seems geared towards enhancing spying in that sense.
I though 'secure' here is misleading. The feature here actually sounds more like an accident prevent tool to prevent your coworkers from accidentally forward / share the contents to someone it should not to. And does not provide any sense of 'security' at all.
Thinking it is 'secure' actually open up a big security loophole instead provide any extra security to you.

As the other person says, exercise in the form of lifting weights has helped me. I always thought it was not for me, but lifting something heavy several times until you're tired makes me feel good.

I also focus on finding the source of my stress symptoms and resolving them. That's of course easier said than done. I decided to not pursue an advanced degree and currently work not a high amount of hours.

I notice I am becoming less anxious without alcohol as well after being sober for a year.
An anecdotal but first-hand data point: I was accepted at three top-tier schools (MIT, Stanford and Caltech) but decided to go to Virginia Tech because they offered me a full scholarship and my family did not have deep pockets. I ended up as a Principal at NASA, an early hire at Google, and selling a startup I co-founded to Richard Branson (among other things).

I will always wonder how things would have turned out if I'd gone to a top-tier school instead. No doubt it would have been different. But I cannot imagine how things could have turned out any better for me than they did.

Nowadays I care much more about an applicant's github repo than I do about their diploma.

>I also love my Sony MDR 7506 headphones and I'm unwilling to trash them for wireless earpods that cost a good bit more than I paid for my Sony headphones. No thanks.

I used to carry a couple of iPod Nano's paired with Shure SE215 to the gym until a few months ago. Despite my intial hesitation against wireless earphones and self-imposed rule of never taking a phone to the gym, Jabra Elite Sport + an iPhone 7 has replaced that setup for now. The sound on the Jabra is far superior, the heart-rate monitor is fairly accurate and there is also basic Strava integration, but more importantly - I am cable-free!

On the other hand, I continue to use ATH-M50x with the iPad Pro 10.5 (which has the 3.5mm jack) due to the comfort and no lag with video content.

It is not about relinquishing or discarding your trusty old gear, but making it work with new tech, wherever and whenever you can, regardless of the ecosystem.

Kind of like how we could implement the death penalty for marijuana possession?
Loved my old AirPods until I lost them after about 18 months of use. The addition of touchless Siri is a nice add-on though I was hoping for a little more. Even so the only tough choice is whether to get the wireless charging case for $40 more or stick with the base model.
Mine went through the wash and the case died but not the buds.
LLD just added support for that architecture with this release, so I assume it's still being actively developed.
While I think this 14 year old and story is authentic, I think this will be misused as a motivational story to fuel Zuckerberg's new white-knighting of privacy concerns. It's really important that Facebook be held to account for their negative influence, and not be allowed to distract with lofty future promises, and co-opt innocent peoples stories for cheap publicity.
Considering the username of the person you are replying to, you might consider that they are very likely to have implemented macros in a lisp.

In common lisp, defining a macro defines a function that receives as its arguments the unevaluated forms passed to it plus (optionally) the lexical environment. This part is indeed "essentially a lambda without argument evaluation."

The magic isn't there, the magic is in the interpretation of the value it returns. It can return any arbitrary lisp forms. This allows macros to do far more than just delay evaluation. Pretty much anything that involves code walking is not possible with lambdas, for example. Some setf expanders would be impossible with lambdas as well.

I committed my dependencies until recently too, and I've been trying to figure out a better alternative. Are you doing something else now rather than committing dependencies? (Right now I'm just using a hodgepodge of npm scripts to lock things down.)
I (and judging by the torrent trackers, thousands upon thousands of others) viewed the video. I can only speak for myself, but I did so precisely because the government cracked down so hard on it. I have never viewed videos of any other mass casualty attack, save for historical events like the 9/11 attacks. It's like Rushdie's The Satanic Verses: one way to ensure that lots of people want to view something is to try to ban it. The fact that doing so in a liberal democracy like New Zealand could land me 14 years in prison is orwellian.

I can speak from direct experience that the video is awful and has essentially no redeeming value save for serving as proof that these events occurred. But if our goal is to dissuade people from watching the video I do wonder whether threatening people with prison sentences is the best way to go about it. General sensibilities and removal from major platforms will prevent people who don't want to see it from seeing it. Those that do want to see it will be able to do so regardless of government censorship with a VPN and a torrent client. The ban had moved a lot of people from the former category to the latter.

Not to mention this censorship feeds into extremists' belief that the attack was staged, say, to prompt the government to enact more restrictive gun laws. This was one of the reasons why the Sandy Hook shooting had a lot of conspiracy theories surrounding it.

The comments seem pretty back and forth on wether AirPods are good or not. I just got some anyhow, for my wife. She uses her iphone, her apple watch, and an iPad. She isn't very techy, doesn't care about the sound quality or anything, but she does use a lot of apple devices. She also likes to talk to her family in the mornings on the phone while getting ready for the day (curling her hair etc.). To me it seems like headphones that allow her to be ultra mobile and also swap between the devices that she uses make sense. It fits her use cases well

That is a good question, but as I understand it (from reading only) emscripten does a few other things, such as convert opengl calls to webgl, as well as use special integrated versions of SDL and GLFW so that native programs that use those libraries can be compiled directly.

Both of those would include input and I think audio is dealt with in a similar way.
Okay, so first, I completely disagree with your conclusion; there's absolutely things from my childhood that I wouldn't want on the internet even today as a grown adult. Not because I imagine they're uniquely embarrassing and would somehow damage my "current persona", but simply because they're a part of my childhood and my person, and it would be an encroachment of my privacy if they were publicly available. It's one thing to show your relatives and neighbors pictures of your children and their drawings; it's another for them to be irreversibly published on the most public platform in existence.

Second, which I'd argue is in fact more important, do you realize how damaging it can be at age 14 to experience this sort of betrayal of trust and elimination of privacy? It's as if the bully in your class got to read your diary aloud - times 100x. The content doesn't really matter, the transgression of boundaries does. And of course you might laugh about it once you gain the distance from your past self and its worries and pains, but it doesn't make the event any less exposing and possibly traumatizing. Adolescence is a brittle time in the development of a personality, and the kind of experiences one has aren't any less impactful because they're "just kids".
Maybe, but I’ve also never met another person who wanted to go back to regular headphones after wearing AirPods.

awesome tactic. thank you for sharing.

in my life I did a "normal" buy, did a FSBO, and latest did a buy via Redfin.

I can see a place for buying agents, as they can/should do a lot of the legwork scoping out potential homes for their buyers. I did that myself when I did Redfin, which is what I wanted, but I can see how most people wouldn't have the time (basically house shopping was my fulltime job for 3 months)

I only did my FSBO sale at the peak of the last housing boom, so with that caveat in mind, I don't really see a place for normal selling agents.

As someone who develops primarily on Windows and occasionally uses a Mac Mini to build iOS binaries, I feel vastly less productive when I'm using macOS. I've also come to realize I use my Home/End keys a lot since my Magic Keyboard doesn't have them.

It's not that macOS isn't "developer ready", it's that I'm used to the Windows way of doing things and have those keyboard shortcuts in muscle memory.

The main reason I like Windows as a development environment is Visual Studio. I wouldn't trade my data breakpoints, variable watch list, memory views, and Intellisense for anything. Then again I'm working on games, i.e. multi-million line C++ projects that run on 4+ platforms. Most of that stuff is unnecessary in other situations.

Also good luck getting any of the console devkits/SDKs to run on anything but Windows.

You've got it completely backwards. You would never, ever subscribe to a creator unless you're already completely familiar with their content. I'm one of the top-paid creators on Patreon and every pledge is like pulling teeth, just as demanding as selling people stuff out there in the 'real world' in the traditional sell-content model.

The difference is, on Patreon I can also give the content away to all and sundry, open-source it, and spend zero time or attention trying to police the digital copying of it.

People only being interested in Patreon as a mechanism to send me the money is 99% of my entire userbase, and everybody else's that has a significant revenue from Patreon. That mechanism is NOT as easy or trivial as people make it out to be on Hacker News, and I value it. But you've got it totally backwards, and your type of expectation is what's damaging Patreon and getting them to have dozens of managers and marketing staff. A lot of that headcount is about getting them to do the unwanted, unneccesary and unhelpful.

I have too many computers at home, some verrry slow ones, and they all pop up the start menu within a second or two unless I've just booted the PC.

I work with a lot of people who use Windows 10 all day long, and I've never heard one of them ever complain about a slow start menu. Complaints about search results? Absolutely.

I suspect it's something you're installing, and I'm sure you'll deny that (and you very well could be right, I don't know) and these things are time consuming to diagnose, unfortunately.
It’s only a fixed cost if the computers must be running at all times. That’s not the case. GPUs consume power, and require energy to cool. They also burn out over time and need to be replaced.

For similar reasons, you’re not just going to rake in the money mining bitcoin because you bought a bunch of computers.

Or maybe to make the point even stupider, you could make a game about training neural networks same as you would on a real cloud service provider.

I never thought about it until yesterday, when my daughter asked that we take a "selfie" together; I thought it was a great picture and put it on Instagram. Later she wanted to browse through my pictures and asked me, shocked: "You put that on Instagram?!"

I had never really considered it to be an issue (I have a private account, pictures only get shared with friends family), but thinking more on it- she really should be asked to consent to share it, even if my account is locked down. I've been telling her (for as long as it's relevant) that anything on the internet stays there forever, and we've had talks about privacy when they want to install some cheap knock-off F2P mobile game that wants access to your entire phone, but this is another aspect I need to consider.

I agree it is a training problem, but it also seems the case that some pilots understand the fundamentals of flight and how a plane operates than others. So when a plane misbehaves, some pilots may have an intuitive sense of what to do, while others are stuck pattern matching and running through checklists.

To make a terrible analogy that trivializes the complexity of flying a jet (because I can't think of a better one), it's like the difference between a chef who knows how to combine ingredients to get the desired result and a cook who only knows how to follow a recipe.

> The user should never have to take extra steps to not use autocomplete.

This is so annoying in VSCode. Often it has a really dumb autocompleter (if the language is hard to autocomplete for - Rust or Python for example), so there are always autocomplete options no matter what you type.

Also, pressing enter is the way you pick an option. Which means if you are typing something quickly followed by a newline like this:

// This is a comment.[press enter]

You will actually get some nonsense like this:

// This is a comment.operator+=()

Very frustrating.
I was referring to AMD's graphics cards. They have a binary firmware blob that basically must be loaded, but the loading itself is done by Free software. I don't see how this is any different from a RYF perspective than if AMD had put another flash chip on the BOM for storing it cold. That is, assuming a competent signature scheme for both.

So the card itself doesn't RYF, but it can be used to display the output from a RYF computer. And unfortunately barring a better graphics option based on open firmware, these are the compromises we have to make. RMS recognizes this - I just think the manner in which he framed the compromise is a bit unnuanced and out of date. Rather than finding reasons to ignore least-worst blobs, we should be talking about boundaries between Free/non-free components.

SSDs are an interesting case, because the hard drive interface abstraction is so simple and longstanding, we just kind of assume it's a good boundary. But if you want to pop back into abstract Freedom land, imagine what the market would look like if vendors weren't able to market around decommoditizing software features. For example, if the FTL were done by Free software (perhaps on the main CPU), there would be no worries about certain lines of drives getting corrupted due to power failures!

(And yes, totally agree about FDE. I actually just changed my router back to being a general purpose Linux box, and it felt quite odd installing that with no FDE).

For me, old enough is "when you can demonstrate meaningful understanding of the negatives of the platform". "I want to because my friends use it" isn't enough. "I want to but I'd only use [Snapchat-style ephemeral data] so people can't make fun of me with it" is much closer, as is "I want to because I want to talk to my friends but I wouldn't connect with people who aren't my friends".

So it's not a hard number, but my guess is that it's going to be about 13, like others have said.
