Nice write-up! Coincidentally, I wrote on the same topic, also in python just a few days ago [1]

I came to largely the same conclusions, but instead of forwardable, I wrote a new library called superdelegate that is, IMO, more explicit [2]

"Agreed with the producers" might be just "execs told them either you agree to air it as we say, or it doesn't air at all and look behind this door - there's a line of people just like you waiting to take your spot in the lineup, so think quick". In this position, one doesn't have too much space for disagreement if one want to keep one's job.
Why is this thread a ghost town?!

A feel like your A & B are covered by the last and second points.

A) they do not trust you. Hence, they want to avoid manipulation in bad faith.

B) They expect private details to be used against them. Hence, they want to avoid persecution.

C, however, is an interesting point bearing further discussion. It's something that a developer can't address directly except to not have whatever private data is under consideration in the first place.
In this issue, proper understanding is muddled by "OOP" languages that have a static type system which uses inheritance as a gatekeeper to polymorphism.

So that is to say, if you want to dynamically substitute objects of class D1 and D2 in the same places in the program, these classes have to inherit some base B. Then D1 and D2 objects can work in places that require a B. For this reason, sometimes the B is a dummy that contains no implementation at all. In recognition of such dummy bases, some languages have "interfaces" and "interface inheritance" to formalize the concept.

In true OOP, there is no such requirement for D1 and D2 to be a new kind of B. Objects are substitutable into a situation if they simply respond to all the required methods. Inheritance is then used optionally just as a trick for implementation reuse. That is to say, we not only want D1 and D2 to be substitutable, but since they are similar, we would like to have a large fraction of their code in common, not to mention the instance data which that code refers to.

The problem is that inheritance is like a software fork. There is this basic implementation of something B, and then these derivations D1 and D2 are like branches: they use the B code, but they replace some of it with their own versions of functions. Those functions initially correctly mimic what their counterparts in B are doing. But if B is subsequently maintained, that can fall apart. B functions can be altered, while their counterparts in D1 and D2 remain the same, not incorporating the new logic. This kind of inheritance situation works best when it's all maintained by one developer, or team, as a cohesive whole. Or else, the base has to be very well designed for inheritance and maintained very carefully.

Inheritance has issues that interact with mutability. The circle-ellipse problem goes away if objects are immutable. In the Common Lisp object system there is an analogy there in that numbers of type rational are subclassed by inheritance into ratio and integer. An integer isn't a new kind of rational; it's a restricted kidn of one, just like a circle is a restricted ellipse. Since we cannot mutate an integer (it is what it is), inheritance models things just fine here; it is quite suitable for partitioning a mathematical set. In terms of substitutability, it is perefect: certainly wherever rationals are allowed, we should be able to use an integer or a ratio, just like where ellipses are allowed, we should be able to use a circle. If we ask an integer what its denominator is, we get 1.
I remember back when I was a kid and I thought putting a lot of necessary stuff in my computer was cool, I had a thing attached in one of the front bays of my computer that had a key start, a cigarette lighter, and a slide out cup holder. It was really dumb but I thought I was so cool.
If your box gets rooted because of this then you already had glaring security issues.
Isn't that what IRC sort of is? There's a lot of overlap of the functionality, but I guess not enough?
Now Americans learned about American censorship. Maybe it's even better for Americans to know that exists.
No. It's the story of one extremist making another. So much so it's basically Newtonian.

If the child had a lesser home life he could have stuck that way. This one had a happy ending but it's a sobering lesson.

Zero tolerance seems cheap up front but the societal "technical debt" is a real bitch.

Ah, that makes sense. So, basically you replaced a dashboard effort with a whole bunch of readonly notebooks, thus distributing the information delivery job among the peers outside of your DS team. Clever.
You can try to use some common sense. The risk of a security researcher finding out about it, or of a whistleblower coming out is too high. Something like that would not pass a risk-benefit analysis in any stretch of the imagination, specially for a company that already collects huge amounts of data from their users.

I don't think this is something Facebook would be able to come back from.
IO is actually better in VM these days due to PCI support for device sharing. IO sharing in containers uses virtualized software networks that generally don't perform as well as hardware that supports SR-IOV

Startup time is definitely a consideration but you could lower this to container levels in many cases by keeping a couple VM's "warm" but not running
Yea there’s no way to tell, but I got the same feeling. It seems too much like a fiction with a narrative arc, and neat story with a good resolution. Who knows.
We are in someone else's yard. One that mysteriously seems to feature players who interact solely through disembodied text, has a numbered scoring system and also at least one non-player character who fiercely guards a list of rules, and can alter everything.

Is obviously some kind of retro cyberpunk-themed text-based multiplayer D&D clone. So, personally, I try not to directly piss off dang, who appears to currently be the dungeonmaster here, just in case I then get eaten by a grue.
It seems like good fiction until it’s your life and then it seems terrible.

I can assure you, as someone who has multiple family members get sucked up into this ideology, this is how it happens.
I suspect it's not as linear as that.

I never tried pot in my youth because it was "bad" - an illegal drug, like heroin or meth.

Conversely some people may try pot or mushrooms and assume that ALL drugs are not as dangerous as they've been lead to believe.
Also non white here. I think your source of misunderstanding is that you think it is my opinion that rich white people tend to be politically intolerant and insulated from political diversity.

To be clear that is not an opinion: that is empirical data: https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2019/03/us-coun...

Not sure where you're getting the stuff about women though. Forgive me for having sympathy for victims regardless of gender of perpetrator. If that's an alt right view then I guess we should all be alt right
Well, in macOS (and Windows) the layers are explicitly created by the programmer: they aren't implicitly created based on heuristics. That's a significant difference.

The Web has historically followed Flutter here in having a complex set of "layerization" heuristics. One of the main motivations of WebRender is to change that.
I didn't know either, until I saw educationdata's comment. It's subtle, but I think opportune is implying that PragerU is fascist.
> I think everyone lied equally at that age or maybe even boys lied more.

I definitely was no saint at school. Not sure many people can say they were.

> I don't think this was something about girls lying

Me either, but I do feel when something happens between a male and female, unless there is enough witnesses, side is always taken with the girl it seems, unless the witness is friends with the boy, then they aren't deemed reliable.

Another time at school I was playing basket ball with a couple of friends. There was an Indian girl walking by and the ball almost hit her, I pointed at her and said watch out and the ball just missed her, I laughed at the fact she just narrowly escaped being hit with the basket ball, but she thought I was laughing at her nose piecing for some reason. (I don't understand where this confusion came from, I couldn't even see she had a nose piecing until later when I was standing next to her) but again I was forced to apologize for laughing at her culture or something like that.
I was told, "you don't own a car, a car owns you," as a teen and it has stuck with me.
This is why I homeschool my kids. I think as geeks we've solved the problem of learning, look at all the stuff we've built by figuring out how to learn by ourselves. We don't really need schools for this function anymore.
Others have expanded a bit, but it depends on what you're running it on, a tmpfs setup is your friend on linux and even for windows there are free alternatives :)

Of course you will probably want to incorporate something that copies the ramdisk contents to somewhere a little more permanent ever so often, set an interval you're comfortable with losing data within! (but given the huge improvement i'd say it is worth it!)
Yes, it's really a completely different experience (in a better way) compared to how it was back in highschool sneaking around with little baggies of weed.
> No, we can’t root iOS devices reliably (rarely at all), but in exchange, non-technical users gain control over their device to a degree that rootable devices make impossible.

Can you elaborate on that? I read up on Apple's configuration profiles and they sound like Android's device administrators -- which can be easily removed from Settings -> Security -> Device Administrators [0]

I don't think the problem is that FOSS (as a movement) can't accomplish what proprietary software does. For a while, some FOSS software did address certain user needs better than proprietary software.

But the world of proprietary software (including permissively licensed open source software) just moved faster, because its associated business models gave it the money, incentives, and the early signals needed to attack problem spaces in human-computer-interaction and secure, managed application platforms, among other things, that FOSS didn't have the resources to address, and so it just fell behind in key areas relevant to users.

We just don't know what the FOSS movement could have achieved given similar resources (or how it would have gotten those resources in the first place without a business model), or a lot more time.
Maybe not "equally", but they are both intolerant. The groupthinks of both teams are used to mobilize violence against easy targets of their outgroups, regardless of the purported goal.

The real distinction to draw here is the matter of numbers. A counter protester is "punching up" in respect to the more numerous mob. They're not likely to get the mob to put down their pitchforks no matter how well-crafted their sign. But as this story demonstrates, their presence makes for human faces that object to the furor.

"Why are Americans so obsessed with Nazis? "

Good question. Maybe different reasons. There sure are a lot of Nazi documentaries on cable.

. Twelve year old boys like snappy uniforms and the idea of a warrior ethos.

. You don't need a God to form a religion, sometimes a Devil is enough. The secular Left, now that culture has taken the place of economics as something to argue about, seems to have built a philosophy with Hitler at the bottom. Enemies are, of course, Hitler.

. WWII makes for a great story. Good guys, bad guys, worldwide (thus the name), heros and villains. Maybe the US is bored with Cowboys and Indians.

As a user of services, I do want control. Whether my privacy needs are met is not good enough unless mathematically guaranteed, and even then there are social/integration features that may add side channels that require control. An example of such a feature would be Signal requesting your contact list to find out whom, among your friends, is also using Signal (which isn't too horribly an anti-pattern in this case because the app still works without read access to your contacts).

Why? Because I want to be able to revoke access to any of several specific details about me or my device based solely on whether I feel like it. As soon as this is taken for granted, it is devalued and users lose leverage. Then the conversation during development becomes whether a proposed new feature is "worth" an encroachment on user privacy.

If.
I can't quite tell if I simply grew out of racial humour or it's genuinely taken on this propagandist, explicitly political subtext it didn't have before. Whichever, I don't really appreciate it nowadays.
It's shocking to me they don't use IRC.

I don't think "remembering to eat" is really in line with anorexia, if that's the parallel you're trying to draw.

I know you're joking, but it's really not a concern at all. A healthy mind will seek food after a fasting period.

I'd add a caution of my own, which is not to gorge yourself during this period. Your body should be given time to adjust back to a normal diet. Though this isn't much of a concern for brief fasts under the intermittent fasting regimen.
Students who engage in serious misconduct, or repeated disruptive conduct will be “counseled out.” But private schools are generally small, closed communities, which creates a high level of trust and allows routine misunderstandings and disputes to be resolved reasonably. Also, there are strong disincentives to “going nuclear” for both the school and the parents. The schools obviously stand to lose revenue, but the parents also stand to lose their monetary and social investment into the school.

> This was upper class resistance to the Nazis.

Even "resistance" seems strong. This was the Nazis murdering people for privately discussing true facts about the state of the war in Italy.

Lest anyone forget, authoritarianism is unimaginably grim.

All this time I was under the impression that OSS design was heavily influenced by a subculture involving hacking and ruthlessly rejecting any unnecessary features in 'officially' supported versions. I'm sure that the massive correlation between fake North Korean storefront-tier GUIs and open source is just a coincidence.

If you're going to say that these sorts of design choices aren't perpetuated by so-called open source culture as it currently exists then there's no conversation to be had. Unless OSS culture has radically transformed in the last three months and I missed it.
This happened to myself in middleschool, almost 10 years ago now. Was pulled into an office, told the police would be called, and was told I needed to confess for hours to something that was unrelated to me. The school never had any retaliation from my family who didn't see it very serious at the time.
Thank you for all the feedback! The biggest issues I've heard so far are in regards to clicking the effects and contrast. First, I've updated the hover, button, and modal colors to help at least a little with the contrast issue. This will still need some continued tuning. Next, I've fixed the clicking issue. Clicking on the effects should now properly open the inspection modal (except for inputs). This was an admittedly lazy design :/ Thanks again for all the feedback!
I agree, software developers are easily responsibility-shamed and the most insidious form of this is to tell them users want their employers to be in complete control of data and experience.

There's a kernel of truth, of course, which is that most users are happier to be unaware of when their privacy is at stake. Educating users about the consequences of using your product is always more of an effort than not educating them. That's the real responsibility that shouldn't be ducked, but for companies it's better to convince developers that "responsibility" means the cheaper route of keeping users in the dark.
I got a similar vibe- I think the article is fiction, or at least primarily fiction. Everything fits too perfectly into the narrative the anonymous author is telling. And the ending is just too cute to be believed.
Patrick is of course right here, macOS isn't quite like Flutter because it basically always texturizes, although ultimately this is under control of the programmers.

And perhaps it would be more accurate to say Flutter follows the Web, as many of the team are former Chrome engineers, though I think they've tried to clean up a lot of the warty stuff.

And absolutely, the idea of relying less on the compositor is not original to me, WebRender has similar goals, though I think I can make things performant, rich, and fairly simple by leveraging compute.
>Cost is rarely a concern unless you are barely making ends meet.

I'm a former ios user (9 years, from my 3GS in 2009 to my 6S which I used until 2018) that switched to Android last year mostly out of cost. Apple crossed a threshold I'm unwilling to follow.

Now I have a moto x4 that was just $300 so I'm not terrified to take it running/hiking with me in case I trip or fall or otherwise break/drop/lose the phone. It takes an SD card so I don't have to pay inflated rates for memory during purchase, the one chance you get. And on top of it I'm on a cheaper carrier (not strictly Apple's fault).

Re-read my comment. I don't see what rural areas have to do with cities not properly funding public transportation.

Like all cities, Milwaukee should get their public transportation in order.

That being said, public transportation cannot work for rural areas. It can only work in urban and possibly suburban areas.
The Motorola one is partially acceptable. I had no idea, thank you! It’s unfortunate they fail to mention the threat of spyware, since that would make more sense to a typical consumer than “you’ll shoot your eye out, kid” as shown here. More work to do here, Motorola.

Do all manufacturers offer that sort of clear warning text, or just Motorola? The unlock icon alone is meaningless.

I usually interpret a "dream" kitchen like the one shown in the article as evidence that a person doesn't really like cooking. I just don't get how somebody can cook frequently and even semi-seriously and have the fridge, sink, and stove all two or three yards apart. I would think most people who dig cooking would take a Frankfurt kitchen with decent appliances over a huge, airy space with great appliances.

My current setup is like a galley kitchen except one wall is missing and opens onto the main living room, so I can prep or do dishes while talking to people. Maybe people more sensitive to cooking smells disagree, but I think kitchens are best when they aren't separate rooms.
It's definitely very American, but the feeling of cruising down an empty highway in a piece of "Detroit iron" is something that has to be experienced to be understood --- if all you've ever driven or ridden in are smaller or less comfortable vehicles, I can see how you would think driving isn't very enjoyable. Even with lots of traffic around, I still think that sitting in my own "personal lounge" is better than sharing a cramped train or bus with all sorts of strangers.

Digital had VMS, and lost slowly in the marketplace until they lost Dave Cutler to Microsoft, then VMS started collapsing. Cutler showed what he could achieve with decent backing and a company not wedded to selling expensive proprietary hardware.

Digital had the Alpha processor.

Digital had the StrongARM processor, the fastest commodity ARM chip on the market, and sold it to Intel because what future did ARM have anyway?

Digital had AltaVista.

There's plenty more, but those are some highlights.
Composition also facilitates utilizing (GOF) design patterns. They can make code much cleaner and reusable when used properly and sparingly.
I knew my comment would draw exactly this response.

My comment was simply stating that the past abuses of one side should not be compared to future, hypothetical abuses of the other (referring to the sentence "just wait till you see what China is going to do").

One may compare the historical abuses of one side to the historical abuses of the other.

Is that fair and reasonable?
One missing element is being backed by enormous amounts of VC funding seeking to create a silo-ed ecosystem that can be leveraged to extract rents from people who want to collaboratively work.
The bias in many of the comments here is towards social darwinism and personal responsibility. But before we blame the drivers for taking out loans on the 'foolish' assumption that their pay would remain constant, remember that Uber benefited from their naivete with having extra drivers on the road. This breed and cull strategy is par for the course in the business world, but you can't say it's 'not immoral', it's just that the business world so rarely has any incentive to be moral. One incentive is that people hold them to account when they do something crappy like this.
Well, this world has formal boundaries we call borders. Beyond that, it's a big universe...

I know this sounds a bit glib, but I'm deadly serious about this. There are geopolitical complications, yes, as well as some additional complexity when it comes to commerce, but all in all, more regime diversity seems like a good path towards lessened internal social tension.
