Also, at the time- it couldnt get much worse then stalin, for most invaded countries. The ukraine had the holdomor and enthusiastically joined the german "liberators" in driving sovjet forces back.

Of course, these "national" liberation movements where double betrayed when the german racism became obvious.

Trauma generally involves either violence, or the credible threat of violence. The three greatest factors underlying trauma are the fear of imminnat death or grievous injury, and/or the loss of control and resulting sense of helplessness, and a destruction of bedrock assumptions such as “I am a good person” or “I’m safe at home.”

It’s not common for PTSD to emerge in the context of purely psychological abuse, although it does happen. Almost inevitably abuse resulting in PTSD has a component of either physical harm, or the threat of physical harm (including witnessing violence or threats of violence).
Ok, this is definitely a low-content comment, but I feel compelled.

"Increasingly less sense" is just "decreasing sense". Or maybe "decreasingly more sense" if you're feeling fancy.
This isn't even about paying. People viewing videos you made on Youtube is already lost revenue, since none of the ads FB shows go to you. They only go to the person who stole your videos.

And be definition this can be seen as a loss since the viewing itself is the revenue generator.
The AMP Project actually maintains it's own code of conduct, which is what was being referred to in my comment: https://github.com/ampproject/amphtml/blob/master/CODE_OF_CO...

I don't have any inherently issue with CoCs, though I find it irritating when threat of "enforcing the CoC" is used as a method to silence legitimate, reasoned criticisms.
Because it is the right thing to do. First, you shouldn’t brake the web. Second, you shouldn’t be mean to people. Some people do stupid things (perhaps they don’t know any better), accommodating for them and helping them do the right thing, is a far better option, then to ignore and shame them.
Hi CyborgX7,

Thanks for the comment. What exactly do you mean about incomplete information through hashing? Saito comes with a lot of backend cryptographic tools so it should be possible to do almost anything. One current feature that uses hashing is when players pick cards simultaneously -- they share their picks in hashed format before revealing the secret that prove their picks were made independently of the other player's -- not sure if this is the sort of thing you mean or you are thinking of something different.

The underlying game engine handles data transfers, abstracts away the complicated cryptographic data exchanges and makes sure that the game "stack" is the same. Once a new move is broadcast all of the players/observers add the received move to their local stack and then execute the instructions step by step until more input is required, at which point the game halts while everyone waits for the active player to provide input by "playing their turn".

In terms of game features, right now the core engine focuses on things like provably fair deck shuffling and card dealing and random number generation. Other features we hope to add which should benefit from the blockchain layer include things like decentralized leaderboards (everyone can see who won / lost public games so we can have distributed rankings), the ability for players to stake other cryptocurrencies on games (if people want they can even pay for games move-by-move), and the fact that game modules will be genuinely decentralized, which avoids the problems with distribution channels like Steam and/or the App Store, etc.

XMPP integration is a really interesting idea. What exactly did you have in mind with it?
All that really matters is the effect on the bottom line, not the what you call each line item. Some debits map very logically to services like public utility bills, you pay for what you use, so it's convenieng to think of it in terms of usage fees instead of taxes. Some things don't map that clearly, like real estate taxes or sales tax, so it's convenient to think of them ad taxes.

Optional is Java's impoverished version of Maybe:

https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/12/docs/api/java.base...

Of course, an Optional reference can still be null because it's still Java. There are also other implementations of Maybe-like types, and implementations of Either-like types, etc in the Java ecosystem.
It was even worse for CKEditor:

> From these thousands of businesses and millions of downloads, a very small group (less than 0,5%) decides to enter into business relations with CKSource.

Source: https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor5/issues/991

However, the difference is that all CKEditor 4's plugins were open sourced and licensed under a permissive set of GPL2+/LGPL/MPL licenses. So the project was funded by a combination of support, SLAs and commercial licenses.

With CKEditor 5 (a completely new project) we chose GPL2+. I will be able to tell you how it worked for us in a couple of years

I still haven't figured out the hierarchical channel structure/channel linking.

The use case I had was if I wanted teamchat/allchat done via different hotkeys, like if I were playing with some friends on an RTS and wanted to talk crap on all while strategizing on team.

Edit: my two cents: I've been running Mumble for a long time, and though it isn't as multi-tooled as TS, I love its simplicity and its quality.
Which is like saying that Subaru is dominant in the market for new cars sold at Subaru dealerships.

That completely ignores the fact that there is intense competition for developers and users between Android and iOS, and renders the point moot.

Sure, you can always define an arbitrary market for which a company will have dominance, but that's irrelevant from an economics perspective.

Maybe you should go read on what a monopoly actually is...

“As Rome took over, it surged in popularity because it was the one system of ethics that worked well for the rich and powerful.”

Is this really true? Were Epicureanism or middle Platonism really adverse to being wealthy and powerful? I haven't gotten that impression.
I'd say working for an employer is making less sense in general, especially if you're a developer. It's becoming way easier to make money through other means, and you can devote your time to pursuits that are actually meaningful to you.
The quoted Dr. Palmer’s novels caricature a far future SV ethos well. Start with Too Like the Lightning and believe the narrator when he tells you he’s a bad dude.
If you are going to look a startup as an investment, then you have to evaluate a startup as would a VC. If you are going to look at a startup as a place to learn skills and develop a network, that's another matter. Rarely will these two views coincide.

I still have friends from my first startup. I had lunch with a couple of them last week. I took that job on slightly more than a whim. I learned a ton and got to know some good people. I did some interesting work. In fact, at the time, I didn't even know how to evaluate a startup as VC might. So add that to the skills you might learn from a first startup.

As for the article, I disagree. I think there are a lot of crap startups, lifestyle startups, that you should avoid. However, I personally still believe but you have to be brutal in your selection, as a VC would be.

Time to abolish copyright then :)
Well nothing is a universal truth, but I think my point is generally accurate.

IMO a bad team at a good company is way way better than a "good" team at a bad startup where nobody knows what they are doing. At the very least the company will have lots of resources outside of your team to learn from (company-wide infrastructure and processes, tech talks, etc).

I also am not saying all startups are bad, and in fact I know that many startups are full of very talented people who are certainly more talented than the average person at a big company. And it is possible, and maybe even likely, that a good team at a good startup is better learning environment than a good team at a big company.

But I think the median team at a big company has a pretty good technical level, and the median team at a small startup (for example one that is just graduating from YC) is fairly bad. If you are young engineer who doesn't know any better, you are much much safer taking a job at a big company if learning about good engineering is your chief priority.
I'm not German, idk what are you talking about.
I've worked everywhere from small startups, to big FAANG companies and big enterprise companies. I am in the very same opinion as op.

1. Financially the exits weren't worth it. The amount you actually learn is incredibly questionable.

2. Working at bigger companies I learned a hell of a lot more, from the mere fact that there are a bigger pool of resources with a lot of experience to go get help from. This is just not technology, but even from improving management and soft skills. You'll learn a hell of a lot more on your career path moving up to Director and VP level from a big company than the equivalent title at a startup.

3. Everything else is really dependent on you as an individual. I personally thrived at a big company. As the writer suggested at a startup its all about shipping and things are pretty much laid out for you. At a big company, it really gives you time to take advantage of resources and people .. you just have to be very aggressive and pro active in your pursuits.
Another more depressing assessment: Google is placing a bet on annexation, as the PRC has repeatedly insisted it will do by any means necessary

Unlikely. Taiwan is really no closer to annexation now than it was in 1972. The situation with Taiwan has always been left intentionally vague. The CCP doesn't have to suffer the humiliation of acknowledging their own impotence and illegitimacy in bringing a 'rogue province' to heel, and the US doesn't have to maintain troops in Taiwan. No one is happy, but no one has to go to war either.
> Tencare provided my health coverage, my 6 year old received free lunch, I had reduced rent, and I had assistance for groceries.

What does that have to do with Walmart? Was anyone else offering you a job? Walmart didn't make you poor, they offered you and other people like you a lifeline.

> A good chunk of Walmart’s workforce were scheduled to work part time hours to avoid receiving any benefits

Not great but not terrible - how many competing offers do Walmart employees have exactly? And again, how is this Walmart's fault?

I lived in a town in the 90's that was host to a new Walmart that everyone thought would decimate the town. 25 years later and the town is larger and more robust than it ever was when I lived there. The only businesses it seemingly hurt, was the struggling and very lame department store across the street.

I'm not sure what you mean by "involvement"? He was with the agency for 2 years from 2001-2003 and for 2 years in the 1980's. I understand that e.g., prosecutors become defense attorneys and vice versa, but in those cases they have clients or bosses to ensure they're working in good faith. I'm skeptical that anyone in the Trump administration will exert pressure on Simon to run the FTC as an advocate for US consumers.

This skepticism is the product of an administration that hires people like Ryan Zinke and Tom Price. None of his hires get the benefit of the doubt.
This is not non-violent communication. If the subtext is “figure out what unstated thing I want you to do and then do it or I will fire you”, then that is quite violent. Making both the demand and the threat explicit would probably be better.
Court fees are proportional to the cause, like 10%. At least in Germany, only that has to be payed up front; Paying the lawyers comes later. So the cost should be within income,and in cases where it isn't, procedures are in place to excuse the plaintiff. Filing should be relatively straight forward, safe any catch-21s that require a lawyer, that I not being a lawyer don't know, but even a lawyer could not foresee with certainty right now.

A real problem would be the usually long wait.

However, taking into account several more circumstances, either side might not be keen on a court case, and thus provide to avoid it. That hinges on morals and technical details.

The problem with copyright's blurry edges around the originality threshold hasn't changed at least. The Olympics organisation is famous for suing, and loosing often enough, over its trademarks, for example.

> take on a major media company in court

In court or outside? And why the media companies? Laws can be repealed by supreme courts on constitutional grounds. That's an even bigger judicial hurdle to consider. If lobbying or legislative orders are involved, it would be a superset of the problem, as the court is to an extend bound by the lawgivers interpretation of the law, disregarding any side effects that are implementation specific. That's the undefined behaviour of the law. The service nulled all your bits after you passed ownership? The content wasn't registered initially and you assumed it was licensed to null? Ohohoho, none of those side-effects were mandated.

People are complaining about Radar tickets not being fixed while new (half-baked) features keep shipping on iOS as well, and it is somehow for the same reason inside Apple.

Working on improving the quality of the software is not always easy to measure in terms of impact, and hard to get recognition for in the same as shipping a new feature.

Where Google differs, maybe, is that its promotion system is well codified and rewards the "difficulty" of the deliverable. This is skewing the balance to reward adding more complexity in the system for the sake of solving it (you create difficult problems artificially, they aren't intrinsic to the nature of the user needs you should solve).

Checker framework [1] can be used to add compile time checks on such annotations. Unfortunately I found it non trivial to setup (that was some time ago though, I'll have to check again). I noticed also that a recent version of Wildfly application server can do those check at runtime, but I haven't investigated it enough to see if it is configurable and the performance impact of the checks

i don't think you understand the premises of how one ends up on the bad list.

"owing" money means you borrow from secondary lender, using it to buy risky assets. you essentially played with fire and got burned. lots of cases like this where these "businessmen" loses money and then declared bankruptcy, refusing to pay anyone back.

sounds a lot like wallstreet doesn't it? are you okay with what they did?

this is government way saying enough is enough.
Let me spoil it a little then :)

I use the word "participatory" because it seems like a lot of complaints about the current state of free and open source software hinge on a lack of reciprocity. You have the individual maintainer of a small project, who feels burned because there are people out there making money on her back. You have companies like Red Hat making life harder for CentOS because Oracle are a big pile of freeloading jerks (old news, I know). You have other companies like Google strategically open sourcing some of their technologies for commercial advantage. We have complaints about maintainers who orphan their projects, and we argue about whether it's OK to complain about not getting something for nothing any more.

It seems like all of this strife comes from disagreements about what expectations we should have for all of the stakeholders -- owners, users, contributors, and maintainers. Not all of this can be spelled out in a license, as we've seen in the rise of CLAs and COCs. And so I use "participatory" in the sense that participating in third-way open source would impose some obligations in addition to the entitlements enumerated by the license.

I like...

Want to include the site as part of my daily consumption of news but no RSS feed link to _articles_ or _show_. Page source indicates that RSS is only available for comments.

/irkModeOn: Not a fan of the "request an invite in order to have a voice in our exclusive club". It irks me. I find it judgemental, elitist and a recipe for censorship: not unlike a social credit score. Ironic when the site itself is about (historically) the free written form. /irkModeOff

But... I understand the moderation issue everyone faces.

Having said the above: the site doesn't seem so active now that I'll be missing out on much without RSS. I can check in every once in a while. The submitted articles look interesting and many are high-quality - so this part (the most important part) is working well.
I don’t know. I sometimes manufacture physical products. I could state publically that I won’t. I could also not buy products made in China personally.

In general we ought to try to change things we don’t like. I can’t imagine the people of China like this system do they?

Yeah, you can deploy any type of NTP-alike time synchronization you like. That could be ntpd, chrony, hypervisor-guest synchronization tools, etc etc.
I'd wager a medium-sized amount on the 1,500 inflection point. It's based on a vague feeling of being in a 1,200 person office, and feeling like things were likely to change soonishly.

Also, for large companies, you have separate social dynamics for offices. I've seen the 200/500 point happen in offices of much larger companies. You then layer the "too large to comprehend" dynamics on top of that, for added fun :)

(Also, you can get 1,000 people offsite. It's just a lot of work. That might be another of the 1,500 size problems)

Either way, social dynamics at large institutions is a fascinating problem. I wish I could find decent literature around the topic, because it's a fun subject :) (Corollary: All the things I said above are anecdata, I don't know if there's a theoretical foundation)

I think the famous 'lorem ipsum' text (the English translation of it) is very instructive on this topic (see Wikipedia for full translation):

The US is competing with China not just economically but socially as well. If China succeeds in creating a more 'productive' and 'complacent' population with its policies, expect the US government to do the same.

Remember the US still has the largest surveillance apparatus in the world. All they would need to do to implement a social credit system is to flip a couple of switches.
Has it ever? I’ve worked for a bunch of unsuccessful startups and it never “made sense” to work for them. I loved it and learned a lot and still was able to meet Maslow’s hierarchy.

But it seems like an odd message since working for startups is pretty much never the sensible thing to do.
Their position in China is not offering iCloud at all is no better than offering iCloud where the data is managed by a Chinese company. Importantly, this does not affect anyone outside of China. This compromise to follow the law sucks, but it doesn't fundamentally weaken protections for anyone else. And of course iCloud is optional and can be turned off by any Chinese citizen who doesn't want their data stored on Chinese servers.

Altering the OS to install a backdoor is a much different beast. It's non-optional, fundamentally weakens the security of the entire OS, and affects all customers everywhere, not just Australian citizens.

Also, if Apple did withdraw from Australia, any Australian citizen who wished to use an iPhone could still acquire one from overseas (though this is admittedly a fair amount of effort) and they'd continue to have a secure computing experience.
Having lived in MA and every New England state north of it MA is highly, highly variable when it comes to what happens on your property being your business and nobody else's.

Basically anywhere that was incorporated back when they were still burning witches is going to be downright terrible. Of the areas that were developed later some were not blind to the mistakes of the past and these tend to be pretty good. My own town's bylaws are pretty libertarian. They even enumerate the right of the self employed to run a business out of their own home (so long as you don't park too many commercial vehicles over 26k in a residential zone) and are sprinkled with all sorts of great language that limits the government's ability to control the individual. It's almost as good as not living in MA.

That said, while the legal and procedural side of things may be ok, the cultural side is not that great. MA (in my anecdotal experience) is light years behind northern New England when it comes to cultural respect for property rights. Being that busybody who calls the cops because the neighbor's kid won't stop yelling or reports your neighbor's non-permitted driveway repaving to the town is far more tolerated in MA. That kind of stuff is not considered socially acceptable in northern New England for the most part.
Perhaps the algorithm used to discover the solution may be of application. As is often the case in pure math, the methods used to find solutions to otherwise inconsequential problems later find use years down the line.
