I've said it before, and I'll say it again: If the PRC can't control individuals, it controls the platforms, either directly or through proxies. It started with mass media (https://freedomhouse.org/blog/media-control-china-model-comp...), social media, the Internet (https://www.bloomberg.com/quicktake/great-firewall-of-china), and telecommunications in the PRC, expanded to "overseas Chinese" communities in Southeast Asia, Australia, and North America (https://www.rfa.org/english/news/china/monitoring-0327201811...), global tech companies (https://money.cnn.com/2018/04/05/news/economy/china-foreign-...), and now global social media communities (https://mashable.com/2016/11/22/facebook-censor-china/#PGexF... and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19121882).
That would be a huge failing on behalf of the airline. There was an emergency airworthiness directive which should have brought this to the attention to all pilots of these aircraft even if they somehow missed all of the other coverage.

Not to take a jab at you specifically, but the fact that someone that can make websites like these is ignorant enough about privacy (law) to casually drop this line marks a worrying development in the accessibility of AI tech.

For impactful technologies, we probably want the required domain knowledge to come with some structural social disciplining so that we can collectively steer that impact in the right direction (whatever that is). Clearly AI libraries have become so easy to use professional ethics are not part of the curriculum.
Let him learn his way and don't micromanage that. Don't go out of your way to search for videos for him either. When you have good text that cowers what he needs, sent that text.

Why is it clearlinux always wins in every comparison? Seriously I wonder Intel can squeeze everything out of their chips.
What you are suggesting seems so obvious that I'm assuming they couldn't do this. Android Permissions on older targets essentially "grandfathers" in apps since older versions didn't need to write code to ask for each permissions at runtime (they asked for the entire set of permissions at install time). I imagine there was no way Google could effectively permit apps targeting older versions to run safely inside the new OS. So, they just took the hard path for developers and are forcing those that really need the permission to update their apps. I'd be unhappy too, but I wouldn't be entirely surprised, and I'd only be furious if I was doing something bad and couldn't anymore. There is going to be the new permission READ_CLIPBOARD_IN_BACKGROUND which will give me whatever I need, and let users know I'm using it, so if I'm willing to write the code, I have everything I need.
IOCP is particularly strong when you compare it to select, poll, epoll, kpoll, and all of the other attempts to make asyncio work in Linux.

How is that related to the network's brain-dead/bananas blocking of completely irrelevant discussion, blog or art sites 25% of the time, or not blocking sites or subreddits that are often just as iffy as any xxx site?

Regardless of view on whether "for the children" blocking of porn is good or bad, everyone doing so seems to have proven utterly hopeless at it. Hopeless for those who prefer to see it, and those who prefer not to. It's inept all around.
I'm often curious to what everyone (dev types, I'm assuming here) us a lot of trackpad for? I"m typically using "space bar" to scroll web pages, and often option-up/down for paging up and down.

Mini-AMA, anybody? For me myself, left as an exchange student 12 years ago. Been back for a few months after being kicked out of Canada in 2016, almost got robbed the first time I went out late.

Back in 2007, it was very certain that the country was bordering on turning North Korea any day. As somebody faring from a more or less privileged background, my parents heard of credible rumour of Kremlin looking up to "quick, clean war," and that was the last straw for them.

I saw tons and tons other far-easterners from Russia in China, Vietnam, Malaysia, South Korea. Some leave for jobs, some move permanently.

Back in nineties, there were mostly engineers leaving for plumpy jobs in Chinese state companies, but in this wave I see far more regular people.

Yeah, long require forms, long namespace keywords, protocol methods... but they are all necessary so Fulcro can figure out a lot of things itself. It pays off really well because things that are often hard in other frameworks such as forms and server-client communication suddenly become easy as a result.
Ah, so that indicator would have been abnormally in the "nose down" area after MCAS over adjusted it. Interesting. Information overload, and nobody looked because that amount of auto adjustment wasn't anticipated. And also means they didn't correlate the fairly noisy/visual turning off the wheels to get it in that position.
If they had a pie fight in the Commons, much like the alternative ending of Dr Strangelove then I think that dignity could be restored.
The EU has stated that they need to hear by close of today if any extension beyond the 12th of APril and they said they would only do that if the UK agreed the deal May got offered in which nobody of any voting stance likes.

In short, the EU is dictating Brexit direction more than the UK now.

So unless they agree May's deal, any other extension has to be voted upon.

However technically the UK could cancel article 50, then resubmit it and give an extension of upto 2 years as article 50 covers a 2 year period and in that time the end date can be earlier. Whilst technically they could do that and the EU would be powerless to stop them, it would be a complete and utter gaming of the political and legal system.

But does that vote carry any legal weight or is it just indicative? Don't you still have to have an actual Aye/No vote on a specific question for it to become law? I easily see many scenarios where a motion clearly wins a Condorcet vote but still cannot get a simple majority in parliament when put to a vote.

Yes. He is very much for "no Brexit", ie not doing Brexit. Not to be confused with "no-deal Brexit", which is doing Brexit without a deal.

Where did I say "they learn better"? I almost said the same thing it's how their brain works "aka enjoys/likes to receive information"

I really hate the "throw a research paper at them" approach we are talking about a human... a preference of watching vs reading if someone is not comfortable with reading you don't hate/force them.

Yes being very much for ‘no brexit’ means you’re against brexit.
The April 12th deadline is conditional on the PMs deal, if that doesn't go through then May 22nd is the current date at which no deal exit will occur if nothing else happens, i.e. that's the current letter of the law. So the vote(s) on Monday are about finding an alternative to no deal before May 22nd. Even if they agree on an option, the EU can still refuse and stick with no deal on the 22nd.

You're thinking too small.

Yes, stealing individual secrets is best done with old school tradecraft. Spies in suits, photos of scandals with dominatrixes.

But what if you want build a system which can identify homosexuals based on textual conversations? You buy Grindr.

Or what if you want to get a backdoor for future exploitation on almost every computer in the US? You buy Fortnite. Because one of those computers will belong to the child of someone important. It only takes one slip by them to get Stuxnet from their home PC to their work PC.

You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger darling.
lftp can be handy too, as that can automatically parallelize transfers.

eg, instead of one connection (eg rsync), lftp can transfer each file using n parallel streams.

Very useful with large files, when there's some kind of bandwidth limit per TCP connection.
Yes exactly. They want Brexit not to happen at all. Your reply seemed to be talking about "no deal Brexit" which is essentially the opposite scenario.
Someone's spreading an MBR-trashing copy of the Christchurch killer's manifesto
The question is if this chinese id is requirement from gov to enter the market... how many corporations would refuse (EA for example)? Especialy with Fortnite which is sure to be super profitable.

I am not saying Epic/Tencent is good or anything just that you don't need to be partialy owned by chinese company for this to happen. It is financial capitalist decision. Similar to why other companies want to enter china market.

It would be more suspicious if Epic was doing it even when Fortnite woulnt be profitable in china.

Lyft debuts trading; stage set for other unicorns like Uber, Slack and Pinterest
Imagine if Florida wanted to leave the US and renegotiate their trade and governmental relationship with China/Brazil/Iceland, etc?

- Why would a country give Florida a better trade deal or more rights than the US?

- How do Floridians benefit from suddenly being unable to freely cross the border to the US?

And this is why Brexit is so screwed up: the promise was "all the benefits you have now plus we'll renegotiate and get a bunch more when we aren't being held back anymore", but it's really hard to fundamentally see why/how that could happen.

EDIT: bunch of replies to this that maybe miss the main thrust of this question which is "Why would a country give a better deal to Florida in this scenario?"

I just don’t see how Uber and Lyft survive past autonomous vehicles going mainstream over the next two decades.
> If this is for legal/constitutional reasons (it most likely is)

It's not. It's for completely pragmatic reasons.

The bind they're in is that, even if they select a winner, the process doesn't stop there. There will be subsequent votes on primary and related legislation to pass before we're completed.

Unless there is a majority for a way forward, or enough MPs are willing to concede that their objections aren't actually principled, much of that legislation is likely not not pass.

And, to my understanding, there were discussions about priority voting for the alternatives. It is conceivable that that will still occur. But it just moves the intractability to a different stage (much like splitting out the political declaration is doing).
You have it backwards.

With a deal, the deadline is May, allowing time for some of the necessary domestic legislation.

This works to some extent, but does not account for consciousness. A mind, at the very least a moment of experience, is a coherent whole. Your left and right visual fields are bound together. Thinking of neurons as entirely discrete units makes the binding problem insoluble.
120 is an "uncomfortable" heart rate though; you'd feel it at rest, it would somewhat get in the way of concentrating or sleeping. (Although it's easy to dismiss as resulting from anxiety or infection.)
Tinfoil? To imply that the driver for political decisions is financial? I think it’s safe to say there is a financial incentive, that’s how the world works. Is it to drive volatility in the currency markets to help hedge funds? Is it to drive deregulation to help corporations, for example to spy on employees for improved productivity, say? Is it to help restore sovereignty over financial laws to restore british offshore banking, to help launder sanctioned cash, and hide wealthy individuals’ cash, for example?

There's alot of stuff in there. Personally i think that's not good. It's amazing for creating many simple apps in a short amount of time, but not for long term complex websites.
can you do the extraction client side, and only send the vector ?
Ouch. POSIX did an awful job when it wrote the API for "makecontext". You can't even pass a pointer to the context's function in the natural way, because only 'int's can be passed, and on any real computer, sizeof(int) < sizeof(void*)!

And anyway, POSIX removed makecontext in POSIX.1-2008 so new code shouldn't be using it. This is too bad, as there are legitimate reasons to use these kinds of cooperative threading abstractions. I guess we still have gnu pth, which hasn't seen a release in 13 years, but it also has a much bigger (pthreads-like) interface compared to the mere 3 functions in POSIX for cooperative threading.
I've always been a reader but for the last couple of years I've found that the videos on Pluralsight do a far better job of introducing a new framework in a concise way when compared to the best rated books.

My experience learning compilers and automata theory was similar. I had trouble slogging through the Dragon Book but I flew through the Coursera compiler and finite automata courses. After that the Dragon Book was an easier read (although I never finished it as there are better modern books on the subject).

Once you're up and running the documentation is usually better.

I assume that this is because most books are either targeted at inexperienced developers or are purely API reference material.
Oh I see there is already a version. More fool me.
Based on the OP’s comments and word choice, it seems like the OP needs to work on his communication if he wants to work effectively with the junior dev.

Have you directly told and then shown the junior dev that reading documentation might make implementing a 2-line code change easier or quicker than watching a video?

Do you want to know what a library function returns for your own benefit? If so, look it up yourself. Why ask the junior dev?

As a senior dev, if the point of asking what a library function returns is to help the junior dev grow, why not just explicitly tell them what they need to look for (different outputs, errors being raised), explain why those things are important, and then show them how to find/use those things? Maybe the junior dev seems sad because you just randomly send them a link without providing any guidance in how to parse it? Maybe they seem sad because you’re communicating to them in ways that show to them that you doubt their abilities.

You said that you have a strong bias towards reading and the junior dev has the opposite. But you said that the junior dev does read in the previous paragraph. Hmm.

Can you imagine this same post being written from the junior dev’s point of view?

I guess I understand to some degree. It's a lifestyle choice. I don't go to some places that would require specialized vehicles and skills like high-clearance 4WD. And traveling internationally I certainly default to itineraries that don't require me to rent a car.

On the other hand, I know a lot of city dwellers and even those few who don't own cars because they don't need one day to day are constantly using either short-term or longer-term rentals to get around the surrounding area for various activities. (Or doing those activities with people who have cars though that tends to become more difficult as your circle of friends gets older.)

I don't think the net failed us ... I think the 'net is maybe the only thing that's slowed this disaster down. Yes yes whatever about the disinformation campaign that allegedly influenced the vote, but misinformation has always been a tool in the political toolkit. What's different this time around is that the net provides the means to route around the official narrative and dig into what's going on. Yes, you might dig the wrong way and come up with bullshit but anyone that can evaluate information can figure this out, and once the honest and educated manage to get to grips with the non-official details then the net provides a means to mobilise.

If anything it's politics has broken the 'net, not the other way round. But the net provides a means to save politics.
