I don’t see that reflected in the article. If the problem is that management is not paying market rates, the article should be about how to have honest discussion with management on compensation.
This is all band-aid style stuff. The real issue is that personal cars don't need to be driven in Inner London, petrol or diesel. It's simply unnecessary, public transport here is fantastic and more buses could easily pick up the slack.

A blue-badge style disabled exemption, and more frequent inspections for things like emergency services / trade vehicles. Done.

The diehards can use electric cars if they wish.

Lewisham/Hither Green, where this girl lived, has frequent trains into Central London (15-20mins), buses all over the place, and Google Maps' current estimate to cycle in to London is 33 mins (vs 36 mins for driving).
The thing I learned the most from my French studies was about English. Namely how difficult it must be for non native speakers. And how dominant English is as an international language. So it made me better appreciate being a native speaker.
Yes capitation is already being tried in some areas as one approach to shifting the market from a fee-for-service model to value-based care. However provider organizations still struggle with it because most lack the data, tools, and expertise to properly price the risk.

Medicare administrators and lawmakers already do set iron-clad rates for service. The rates are relatively low, which is why there's a shortage of doctors willing to treat Medicare patients.

And being nitpicky on claims isn't so much a matter of pricing. Instead the insurers are trying to prevent waste, fraud, and abuse.
When the changes are unexpected, yes, further explicit authorisation is required. Just because you installed a photo-album app doesn't let the distributor delete all your photos, say.

Besides that, this sort of "but we hid something in the t&c-s so now we can shit on you" is the sort of thing I expect from over commercialised companies, not from what was once a paragon of the FOSS community.

FWIW class-actions don't exist in UK.

Your comment is a hasty generalization combined with a red herring.

As is the article. In my opinion, of course. That was sort of my point.
As I understand it, you agree to the terms of Studies as part of the ToS agreed to on installation. You can disable it later. And--while it was a ridiculous mistake--they didn't make any "unauthorized changes" to your computer. They just let a certificate expire and your computer, running the same code it always had, stopped trusting it.
Not sure when, but the spanish learning tree has been re-worked and thankfully there are no more sentences like that.

Those weird sentences make for a good laugh though. I was asked if I speak spanish, I've answered with a confident "El gato beben leche"
Kaiser Permanente already acts as both a provider and payer in a single organization. The rest of the industry is gradually moving toward that model. But patients probably won't pay based on an income percentage.
It's a well established fact that PostgreSQL is superior to MySQL in just about every category that appears in any comparison. Sometimes MySQL is just plain broken, e.g. that schema changes cannot be rolled back in a transaction.

No less safe until it the code is running in production on a Tuesday at 3AM and a library pukes up an exception it has never thrown before and your code doesn't handle it.

I prefer exceptions to be declared, just like types. Having exceptions declared gives me more information about the operation of the code I am calling and that is useful. To treat exception declarations just as annoyance seems like lazy punting.
Interesting followup. Re repetition - it's a sign but only after a couple months do you notice that all these pleasing utterances you keep hearing are expressed with one of the same three emotional notes. Sociopaths have no real theory of mind, I agree, just a lot of stimulus-response mimicked behavior, lifted from those who do have a theory of mind. Negotiation is a very interesting topic in this regard. I like your research program proposal. I've noticed a lot more pleading or demanding than trading from sociopaths; good trading/negotiation pretty much requires a theory of the other's mind, needs, etc.
In this case you have to trust whatever oracle you are using. The images need to be verbatim so everyone would have to use the same centralized source, which means it is not the same as a more decentralized source.
Yes, we are all quite advanced enough to footgun ourselves with abandon :) For everyone else, the fix is magically healing their browser without any intervention at all, and some of my high-skilled tech friends haven’t even noticed yet because they’re weekending and this all resolved itself before they realized it.

Have used RRDtool in the distant past. It's a fascinating project from a time when things were designed with hardware limitations in mind. https://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/

RRDtool stores its data values in a circular buffer (or many buffers, at different resolutions) so performance is constant - it doesn't degrade over time. Also resource usage is constant. The price you pay is that older data is stored at coarser resolution. I assume it also made the data points fixed in time for performance reasons, which is fine in my opinion.

I don't know if there are modern integrations or reporting tools built on the database.
> I will not associate with any business or person who is Chinese.

I agree it's not right and everyone outside of China from governments all the way down to consumers ought to be doing more but I think we need to be careful with statements like the one above. The Chinese government is committing atrocities. Some Chinese citizens and companies are surely complicit but I don't think it's fair to judge an entire nationality based on the actions of those in power. I'm certain there are quite a lot of Chinese who disagree with what's happening but understandably cannot voice their opinion on the matter.
Thanks for info.

> is there a reason to duplicate the work ?

I don't know yet. When the time comes to implementation we'll look whether we can re-use either the code or ideas or maybe instead integrate Roc into GStreamer as a network transport (actually I was thinking about it already and there is an item in the roadmap for it).
To provide additional context, on GitLab.com, we maintain two weeks' backups. The last time we restored a single project repo, it was a significant effort that utilized many hours of an SRE's time to complete.
Modern diesel cars are not economically viable if you reduce NOx emissions down to acceptable rates. That’s exactly why all the manufacturers cheated, to be able to claim lower emissions while maintaining engine reliability and MPG performance. If you actually reduced emissions properly, the resulting engine wouldn’t be economically viable compared to their gasoline alternatives.
Autoscaling is both simpler than this and more complex than this.

For predictive autoscaling, boring old-fashioned forecasting techniques appear to work fine and are very fast and very cheap.

For reactive autoscaling, boring old-fashioned control loops appear to work fine and are very fast and very cheap.

There's still no substitute for understanding your application's design.

If you tried to design and build a factory the way folks propose to rely on autoscalers and ML ("we'll ignore what's in the building and rely on a thin, unintelligible gas of floats!!"), you would be fired.
You would have said the opposite if an expired signature had caused your browser to be compromised!!!

The default behavior seems desired to me.

The problem was that the certificate was allowed to expire.

A have ton of respect for the fact that it was enforced!

Certificate expirations show up on causes of outage lists so frequently, yet little has been done to address the underlying issues of how PKI works to address it. The core issue of time limits on trust and no specs and requirements on how to handle the most common case of saying “yes, this is still trusted” is oddly absent.

Could we have for example a publicly verifiable ledger that can be used to verify a cert chain with not only a defined workflow to answer if a cert is still trusted but also a requirement for the workflow to be fully implemented? Seems quite doable, vs sort of hacks of auto-renew which are hit and miss depending on the CA.

In other words, when do we fix the sport rather than the players here?

China's Mass Surveillance App Hacked; Code Reveals Criteria for Oppression
You are putting words in my mouth, please stop that.

Instead of disabling this historically working feature which normally works great against hostile attacks such as MITM and malware this problem would've been avoided by a simple cron script which runs daily, and checks for expired certificates used within the infrastructure (both interaly used and externally used).

The main competitor you mention, Google Chrome, is a terrible privacy hazard. This situation does not change that.
Thanks for the link, though the exact nature of the inquiry into Galileo was not my point. It was accepted _as truth_ that the sun went around Earth by a great many people back then.

Going back up the chain in this thread, pesmhey said:
> Gender and sexuality and identity and really all of reality is fluid.

To which you replied:
> Truth is Truth. Reality is not fluid, our existence is very real, and so are the laws of reality just as real as the laws of physics.

I can't speak to what pesmhey intended with "all of reality is fluid", and I don't agree with that as phrased… What we perceive as reality is limited by our understanding of it. If you look up and watch the sun travel across the sky, it's easy to think that the sun goes around the Earth, just as the moon does.

It would be folly to say that humanity collectively hasn't learned a ton about human biology over the past 100 years. When it comes to gender, sexuality, and identity, we're continuing to learn and what may be seen as "truth" today may prove to be not quite right with more knowledge.

Just this week, in fact, there was the news about Caster Semenya and how the olympic folks think her testosterone levels are too high for her to compete as a woman[1]. 100 years ago, they couldn't have tested for that (testosterone was apparently discovered around 1890[2], so I don't think they would have had tests for levels of the hormone then).

To be clear, I'm not trying to make a point about the Catholic Church, but rather about truth and reality. The Catholic Church can move forward with time. I wish more people in this country would get on board with Laudato si[3] and see "climate as a common good" that we need to take seriously. (Of course, most people in the US are already on board with respect to the need to address climate issues, but those holdouts are a problem.)

FWIW, I acknowledge that progress is not always forward and that there are, indeed, aspects to our current time that will prove to be objectively problematic when we look back at them from some time in the future (just as there always have been). I don't know how common it is in actual practice, but I think stifling contentious discourse at universities is likely to be harmful for the advancement of knowledge over time.

Anyhow, this has become a ramble, and it wasn't really my intention to write an essay. Given that, I'll just stop rather than write a proper conclusion. Sorry :)

It's important to understand the context for such actions. Right or wrong, heavy handed or not, there is always a context. On HN and other social media, users always seem to think there is some kind of inherent malice and genocidal intent in every Chinese action, which is utterly absurd.

In this particular situation, the context was 200 Han Chinese being ethnically cleansed in Xinjiang, dragged out of buses and cars and executed on the street while coming home from work, with 2000 more injured.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/July_2009_%C3%9Cr%C3%BCmqi_rio...

There are videos of this readily available.

It'd be like if hundreds of white people were butchered by thousands of anonymous black people for the sole reason of being white in Detroit. What would be the appropriate government response to such an event? Mass incarceration? I mean, in such a context, can "re-education" camps not be viewed as a relatively mild response? This is not to say that it's an ideal response, but certainly it's not the worst an authoritative government could have done.

In response to your point about surveillance, the Urumqi riots began because a false rumour about the rape of two Uighur women in a Han Chinese factory spread on WeChat, fuelling hate, outrage and unrest. Because this is how things work in an uneducated population. Just look up the number of lynchings, burnings and stonings in rural Indian villages based off of false rumours spread on social media.

This is not the same country as your country, these are not the same people as your people. China is a developing nation with an uneducated but heavily interconnected population, a combination heavily conducive to destabilization from both internal and external actors. For this reason, their government will not hesitate to stamp out, censor, surveil whatever it is they need to in order to preserve stability. You can't judge China by the same standards as modern, highly educated western democracies - any attempt to do so is simply naive and misguided.
Same. Structured news consumption to keep in the loop off what is going on.
From the article:

Unfortunately, despite the many proposals in industry and academia to fix the RowHammer issue, RowHammer failures still seem to be observable in state-of-the-art DRAM devices in a variety of generations and standards (e.g., DDR4, ECC DRAM, LPDDR3 and LPDDR2 DRAM).

I think newly produced would mean DDR4.
What? Tabs belong on the side. In a tree. ;-)
Which is the opposite of a "deep, abiding peace", would think it's more like a hole that can never be filled.. one might even call it a deep, abiding suffering from which people seek temporary refuge by hurting others.
Sorta related: yesterday I was on the phone attempting to communicate with a colleague and I looked through my messages for a link on my phone. Unthinkingly I hit copy, on my phone, and then opened up his email on my Mac and hit paste.

It worked.

So many Apple is starting to figure all of this out?
> There are 3 million people in camps in china

That's what the US government claims, as such I'd take that number with a massive grain of salt because they have a vested interest in making China out as the "worse baddie" just like with surveillance, to make itself look like "the good guys" or at least "not as bad as China guys".

> vs about 1000 at the height of gitmo

That's quite a dishonest claim because Gitmo is only ONE out of many prisons like that, it ended up getting most of the spotlight due to geographical proximity to the US. But that doesn't mean that Gitmo was, or is, the only place like that, far from it [0].

And that doesn't even account for the thousands of drone victims, all just deemed "combatants" on the virtue of being "able-bodied" and too close to the "splash" [1].

With targets selected trough quite questionable methods [2].

In that context, China can't even compare to the US if China tried to. If you want to evade becoming a victim of these Chinese methods there's a very simple solution: Don't go to China.

The same doesn't work if you end up on the crosshairs of the US, as the US is applying these methods on a global basis through the most sophisticated global surveillance network in human history.

The fact that a function can fail is not an implementation detail, it should be part of the signature of the method.

And if the method can suddenly fail in a new way, that signature should change so that callers of that method can adjust to the new failure case.

Checked exceptions force you to consider error cases, there's nothing stupid about them.
I find the idea that log stoves are part of the problem interesting. Here in America wood burning stoves have pretty strict emissions requirements, to the point where a portion of wood burning stoves sold today actually have a catalytic converters in them to ensure complete combustion of any particulate!

Does the U.K. not have similar rules, or are all of these just grandfathered in?
Exactly! Write code that you find interesting and/or need for something and then share it. If someone uses your stuff, then great, if not, at least you've become a slightly better programmer! It's a win-win!
Learning a Romance language is like learning Latin with the added benefit of millions of people who can have a conversation with you around the world.

"Late Leading-Edge Boomer" here, with a nit: We weren't the ones who got humankind to the moon in 1969-72. The Baby Boom is considered to have started in 1946. All three astronauts who flew the first lunar-landing mission (Apollo 11, in July 1969) were born in 1930. Flight director Gene Kranz: 1924. Guidance officer Steve Bales, who could have aborted the landing after a computer alarm: 1942. Junior computer specialist Jack Garman, who urged disregarding the alarm and continuing the landing: 1944.

A lot of people don't view that (or other changes) as improvement. I personally hate multi-process browsers because they eat RAM like nothing else. In my browser of choice I normally run 200-500 active tabs and I stay under ~3 GB of ram usage. With a multi-process browser that'd be impossible.

The new website looks great! And it seems new maintainers have stepped up. Is Luakit on an upswing?

This project could have immense value to the web. Having multiple language communities working on the same types of problems, and in cross-cultural collaboration, gives the best approach, ie with [Model-driven engineering] ([example below]).

I have reviewed Luakit's codebase, trying to figure out the extent of its DOM scripting capabilities (notes elsewhere atm). If anyone else is interested in this, pls message me on Discord, @naturallymitchell via [The Programmers Hangout] or [Luvit].

A good example issue for DOM scripting would be something like [scrolling screenshots],

Microsoft's column store implementation uses a large delta rowgroups and functions a little like a log structured merge tree. Incoming inserts go into deltas, and are later aggregated into updates to columnar blocks.

This gives insert performance on par with row storage (it is using row storage!). This can be combined with their in memory database functionality as well.
Might be interesting/useful to aim for zfs send/receive compatibility :)
