Sure but you're attacking the problem from the wrong vector: the partner has physical access to the device and control to install malware, and is abusive. Turning off the microphone or camera is going to trigger retaliation anyway - it doesn't help in this scenario because the problem is the abuser.

Helping the victim out of that relationship is what needs to happen - no amount of technical cleverness is going to make it better. Improving our laws certainly would (i.e. taking that sort of device compromise as a serious crime would be extremely useful in this context).
I remember playing this a while ago and I just introduced my 4 year old son to this game (a couple of weeks ago).

I use it since some weeks and so far I noticed the following.

PRO:
- best desktop calendar app I tried on Linux (which is really fed up - it's 2019 and there really isn't a good calendar???)
- easy appointment typing feature is very nice and helps me to get appointments into the calendar easier even when typing and not speaking

CON:
- minor glitches (sometimes just doesn't save my appointment)
- cool features only available to people who give their data to everyone (that's just not me). It would be nice to have something like that without a potential whole for entities to spy on me

I'd love to have something like this as an open source desktop calendaring solution with integrations to all important services / data sources and export functionality (incl. print).

Learned by using it:
It's 2019 and Linux doesn't have a decent calendar- & contact- solution :-(
* mineTime even with it's bugs is by far the best (which is unsettling)

So thx for providing this app - it already helps me to stop using my nextCloud web calendar in the browser (which sometimes sucks).

Red hat = IBM, so that doesn't make any sense.

Firefox is probably the only one. But they can only hire a limited amount of people and their resources depend on their market share of I'm correct.

A big part of that is the "default search engine setting" ( paid based on market share), so open-source still doesn't pay the bills at the end of the day.

My argument is still valid.

Agreed. Most algorithmic puzzles are looking for very constrained ways of solving problems, that's why those so-called good solutions are fast. In real-world applications, this could be an anti-pattern because of most of the business model are dynamic. In contrast, general strategies like logic programming are underrated for a long time.
Started playing around with Darwin this week. It has great potential as an Inbox by GMail replacement. Looking forward to seeing a mobile version hopefully in the near future.

Biggest thing missing rightn now is Reminders integration with Google Calendar and Home/Assistant. For some reason Gmail is using Google Tasks instead and that is useless without complete integration with the Google Ecosystem, so Reminders is the right way to go.
In Dortmund, Germany, on Good Friday, a commemoration ceremony took place in the afternoon at the Bittermark memorial (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahnmal_Bittermark ).
300 POWs and resistance fighters were murdered there just weeks and days before the end of the war.

This ofcourse depends on time of day. An early morning somewhere around 2 am - 5 em we were driving from Sweden down to south-west germany, somewhere after Hamburg. We have a small car, top speed is about 200 km/h in downhill, wind in the back. I had the gas pedal to the bottom for several hours, most of the time it was four lanes and the only thing you saw was a truck every few kilometers. This was a few years ago so not certain if this has changed. Last time we drove down we ended up on the wrong highway and stuck behind a heavy transport for the same ammount of hours doing 70 km/h tops, when we weren't standing still. Friends told me the heavy transports blocking the whole roads have gotten a lot worse in the nights, the last years.

SuperTuxKart is one of the best examples of how open source software can be on par and even superior to commercial software.

> Look at the products that got copied from Kickstarter by China before they launched, those people really got their dream crushed.

Ideas are cheap. These Chinese companies are supposedly taking pre-validated (via crowd funding) ideas from Kickstarter and then manufacturing them. How is this a bad thing? It introduces a desirable competition for the best ability to execute on those plans.
Agreed, microservices is literally a last resort in my book.

It's the thing you reach for when you're hiring a new team worth of developers every other week and can't avoid developer blockage any other way.

It's not even a good architecture for most of the things it ends up being used on.

There are very few problem sets that a microservices arch actually excells at.

Almost always a monolithic with some SOA and clear domain boundaries is going to work better for static/slow growth teams.

It might be exciting for some but I wouldn't wish it on anyone.
Yeah, that's unfortunate, because someone can easily mistake them for Yubikeys. They're basically WebAuthn keys.

I've never seen a concrete or comprehensive description of the Georgist scheme.

Say I own 5 acres of undeveloped forest, valued by the market at $100k. Can I immediately know what my tax bill will be, given the tax rate in my district?

What happens to my tax bill if I cut down the forest and build a factory? Or a grocery store? Does my tax bill remain unchanged?

What if I do nothing with my woods, but the guy owning the adjacent lot opens a supermarket? I'll pay more then, right? How is it calculated?

Is there a Georgist story about incentives to preserve natural ecosystems?

Equity is literally a scam at this point because there's the stock options that they give you, the private stock they give themselves, and the stock the VCs get. You're literally last on the list to get paid and first on the list to get shafted. It's not like it used to be where stock meant everyone shared risk and reward.
The last line resonated with me a lot "In every case of documented refusal to obey orders to exterminate people, the coercive powers of the Nazi system proved to be impotent or ineffective."

I would have expected the opposite. I guess this means, the structures of society and rule of of law were actually sort of still working, but that most people feared going against the zeitgeist.

So can any lagrange polynomial, Fourier series, ...

The real question is whether the approximation is a good one:

- can you prove error bounds ?

- can you bound the maximum error?

- is it efficient ? (low storage, low computational effort)

- is it fast to build? (low computational effort of coefficients)

- derivatives: how well does it approximate gradients, what's the error on the gradient, is it bounded? can one bound it, how fast can one evaluate them, etc.

- there are many other interesting properties: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximation_theory

From pretty much every single aspect of approximation theory, neural nets are one of the worst methods to approximate a continuous function. If you were to make an analogy with sorting algorithms, they would be worse than bogosort. There are no error bounds, you can't bound the maximum error, computing their coefficients is very slow (training, needs GPUs, ...), they require a lot of storage and computational power to evaluate, ...
Well it points out that they certainly aren't suffering from ability and don't need to try to skimp on the licensing. There are limits but it points out that trying to keep the price down wasn't necessary.

Now the true definition of 'overpriced' in this context is 'can they have some alternative that can do a better or cheaper'? Both will try to maximize their own profits and it is possible Apple made a penny wise pound foolish plan to try to cut costs.

It sounds like a good thing: 'we passed so many tests successfully!'

But it also sounds like kind of a bad thing that it's the last test: 'holy cow - that was close - thank god we had the last test in there.'

Without knowing the specifics of what they were testing every time that might be irrelevant, but if it was multiple test fires of the same engine and only the last one caught the problem, that's scary.
Explosions tend to disperse material in uncontrolled ways, so I doubt the two substances got mixed perfectly. Chances are not all monomethylhydrazine reacted with the nitrogen tetroxide.
> if you have different rates of change you simply need a good separation of concerns with clearly defined boundaries and interfaces. You can do this equally well in a monolithic application, with none of the distributed computing issues.

Exactly my thoughts - all of the benefits discussed are centred around source code management, specifically, things tied into the source code management which have poor separation of concerns: ungranular tests, ungranular CI...

This doesn't have anything to do with it being loosely coupled code that aught to have an API and then _maybe_, _potentially_ is amenable to being run as a separate service and is worth the cost of that complexity.
Wow! Thank you for those suggestions.

I've looked into Fathom before. I quite like what's offered. And the fact that's it's open source is the cherry on top :)

Thank you very much for the suggestion and for giving me a direct link to check out more.
How is $150000 a little money? Even if you somehow save $50000 a year it still will take you three years of continuous saving to get there. Life is already easy if you already have a lot of money.
After the success of the Falcon Heavy a couple days ago, I'm actually surprised there weren't more hiccups in SpaceX activity. They are pushing the limits of spaceflight technology, there are _bound_ to be setbacks like this. A roadmap with no errors like this is highly improbable. Amen for rigorous testing.
I basically agree, but if modern sexuality is impossible without feminism and feminism is impossible with modern technology (the pill, good infant mortality) and dense urban life, it’s silly to blame Christianity for not having had a modern sexuality. If anything, Christianity is the religion that adapted to the new circumstances the fastest, and most thoroughly. It’s just hard to see that if your context is “I grew up evangelical and it sucked” (which is a fair thing to think!).
> You're literally last on the list to get paid and first on the list to get shafted

Isn't that a given with equity? You're literally saying that you're a residual claimant in the enterprise. Yes, with stock options and such things you might be even "more" residual than others in the capital structure, but it's not a "scam".
Hey Scott! :)

Thank you. I too use Google calendar quite a lot. To add the reminders I create in DarwinMail to Google calendar would be an amazing lift in productivity.

Thank you for your suggestion.
What if all the other services using the old API are doing the wrong thing because the old API was wrong? The bug isn't fixed until they all use the new API.

As an extreme example, just to highlight, what if you have a login service where you only take the username and hand back an access token. This has the exploit that anyone can get super user access by simply passing the right name. So you patch the login service to take a password as well.

But the exploit is live until all the other services is using the new API... so wouldn't you want to prevent the old API to be used, breaking any service that hasn't been updated yet?
Yes, maybe like +200 (which is what I've set it at as a mod in severe cases of brigading), not thousands. Most of the subreddits don't require anything but positive karma, and you can achieve that with less than a dozen manually created bots upvoting the comments that new bots make.

There are no subreddits with a spam algorithm counted in the thousands of karma, that would prevent them from growing.

Hell, I've literally asked for a non-pay title increase and been shot down before. I was doing significantly more than the job description and literally doubled my salary at the next place. I was not paid well and didn't realize my worth. Now I'm on the other end and despite 3 people accepting offers they all back out on the hire date for a reason no one seems to want to share. There's things I can fix, things I can't fix, and things I just plain don't know about.
It's always frustrating when this happens. See also Cormac McCarthy and how he seemed to think he was the first person to think about the emotions of people in a post-apocalyptic wasteland in "The Road", despite that being a very common trope in SF for decades.
If you have multiple teams, a well structured monolithic application where each module is it’s own service and only exposes functionality via an interface, how does being a microservice help? If each team also writes unit tests, when the other team makes changes, they can easily see if their change affects the other team.

If you are using a statically typed language, you can make a change in the signature of your function and automatically see where the change affects other parts of the code and do and automatic, guaranteed safe refactor.
1 thing I never understood is this obsession towards jobs growth. Every month, when this number is released, everyone wants this number to be better than the last month.

Yet if everyone who wants a job eventually gets one, this number will eventually go to zero. And if it goes to zero, that would be a good thing. Yet everyone panics if the number of jobs created that month goes down.

People are freaking crazy.

1) Applying notions of ownership to systems 1000 years ago - is totally arbitrary.

2) The Sovereign's holding are, and always have been something different than a regular person's holdings. They have always beens somewhat matters of State.

3) Today, the monarchies are constitutional. They do not 'own' the land as you and I would 'own' land.

4) Most wealthy people today did not inherit their land from people 100's of years ago who got it from plunder - this is ridiculous. About 1/2 of the wealthy people today are 'self made'.

5) Almost everyone in modern civilization has access to opportunity, and as you'll notice from this thread, 90% of Canadian land holding for example is by the government, i.e. commons - there is plenty of land and resources to go around. Everyone can participate.

Inequality today is not even comparable to what is is even 100 years ago. People receive free healthcare, almost free banking services, cheap water, cheap transport, cheap entertainment, cheap clothing, cheap access to information, free social solidarity.

My fear is that if the VPN connection is severed, you're locked out of your environment.

I typically have a public bastion and just shut it down. In AWS you aren't paying for it if it's turned off and you have an "escape hatch" if you need it.

If someone manages to launch another instance or start the stopped one then they would have access, but that's another can of worms.
> From pretty much every single aspect of approximation theory, neural nets are one of the worst methods to approximate a continuous function.

What about scalability? I don't know of many approximation methods that can routinely work with the amount of coefficients, datapoints, dimensionality of data etc. that neural networks are coping with. (Though AIUI compressed sensing methods might come close; compressed sensing can be seen as a kind of approximation as well.)

Countries east of Germany were not signatories of the Geneva Convention as of WWII. The civilians of these countries were basically considered as and treated as cattle, including when they were kidnapped to inland Germany as slave labor. I don't think the Geneva Convention would change anything though...
This will only be true if the bug fix had local impact.

If instead the discovered bug was more fundamental in nature (i.e. a problem was found in the actual design/implmentation of the signature/api itself) then every service using that api will need to change.

It's a vague term because they don't know what exactly happened yet and anomaly is a technical term that those in the industry know.

Explosion has a technical meaning too, and many things that look like an explosion aren't. AMOS-6 for instance was not an explosion, even though it really looked like one to a bystander.

This isn't excessive pedantry, it's jargon meant for an audience that will understand it and not take more away from a statement than they intend to say. Better to use the word that means "something bad happened" rather than a word which means something specific only to have to follow that up with "sorry, we were wrong, it wasn't that, it was..."

Yep: "Although the Tesla Roadster was built in the 1970s by American manufacturing and manufacturing companies, it did not have an electric motor. At the time, it was a mechanical motor. And the Tesla Roadster was a motor on top of a gas gas cylinder. When the Model S was built, the electric motors had no electricity to charge them. The Model S had no electrical chargers; the Roadster had no electric motor to charge the electric motor. It was a gas car."

In fact, the Nazis had perverted the law and its rule but retained the structure of a lawful state, as chaos and anarchy were pretty much out of fashion in Germany after the 20s. Think of the Nazis as a gang of uneducated mobsters winning some decent hotel in a game of poker. They had to retain the reception, the service personal and the kitchen. But they behave disgustingly at every opportunity.
