> My experience with Apple and Bose devices has been pretty flawless

Mine have been terrible. I have a 2018 MB Pro and a pair of QC35 II and it stutters dozens of times during the day. Before that I had a 2014 MB Pro and a cheapo BT headphone and have similar issues.
I don’t need to game from a coffee shop, but I only have one personal computer and am not interested enough in gaming to get a machine dedicated to just that
It says in the linked article in the translated auction ad.

That linked with the logo would make sense.
No doubt Go's stdlib is useful, and there's plenty of things it got right. However, it's not immune to making some mistakes and having to freeze them forever. The more functionality you add, the harder it gets to get it perfect on the first (and only) try. Search for "deprecated site:https://golang.org/pkg/" finds various issues ranging from cosmetic mistakes to entire packages being deprecated.

CompressedSize uint32 // Deprecated: Use CompressedSize64 instead.
CompressedSize64 uint64 // Go 1.1

// Deprecated: HeaderMap exists for historical compatibility
// and should not be used.

Requirements may change over time, so even getting something perfect now is not a guarantee it will last (e.g. pre-UTF-8 languages froze byte-oriented or UCS-2 strings, even though these were good decisions at the time).

Sometimes improvements are not worth the cost of deprecation and replacement, so things are just left as they are. For example, an HTTP interface designed for request-response HTTP/1 works for stream-oriented HTTP/2, but support for push, prioritization and custom frames is bolted on. Packet-oriented HTTP/3 will add even more stuff that will have to be retrofitted somehow to the old model. Libraries can come and go, but std can't just throw away an old interface and start over.
Individuals being allowed to claim asylum in an embassy building, which is normally a workplace with the lowered expectation of privacy thereto, is really exceptional. In fact, how many other examples even are there?
Well, they should put tariffs and sanctions, sounds quite reasonable. EU and US is the only economic factor in the world after all. Whos gonna China sell to after that? Africa? Russia? :D
Not accepting a ride until an agreed (the rider can always cancel the ride) price is met is entirely different than taking a longer route after a job has started.
Unlikely here given industry momentum. They have to get this one right as they lost mobile and their desktop dominance continues to recede in the distance.
I intended to pass on replying to this, as my position is not changed, but then realized I can illustrate my point in regard to the Fifth Amendment.

I'm not from the US, but I have an idea about the amendment's contents. Afaik it makes little sense without the presumption of innocence. So to a person living under the feudal law, the self-incrimination clause would be mostly useless. Similarly, if the mankind adopts hard collectivism in the future (in light of overpopulation), the 5th might become meaningless to them.

Even today, there are countries where constitutional freedoms are just a political circus, or communities living under mob rule, and if you recite the 5th to a person there, they'd laugh at you. In the US, southern towns until ~1960s are often portrayed this way.

The same way, I'm pretty sure the culture ≥2000 years ago was quite different to ours, and personally I'm not interested in cherry-picking the text just to get through it as fast as possible―especially since e.g. Dante or Joyce might have considered different chapters obligatory.
I know he published U.S. government secrets (CIA files, that Iraq military video, etc). But what U.S. government crimes did he expose?

I think Assange is mostly a sleazy guy who allowed himself to be a tool for Russia in 2016. But I still think he should be protected from U.S. charges by the First Amendment, regardless of whatever minor "assistance" he provided to Chelsea Manning.

Snowden on the other hand is a hero that acted perfectly ethically and exposed clearly criminal violations of the U.S. Fourth Amendment. He should be protected as a whistleblower.
"Something a little more modern" - I think a simple interface would be real useful to get the processor working without the cards and printer. It could be the first phase of the project. In the end you want the whole thing to work, if that is at all possible of course.
Good list. Would also add that when you are first learning something expect failure at it as it is part of the learning process. Get feedback from someone who has done what you are trying to learn and learn from feedback. Self confidence and self esteem are dependent functions. Get rid of distractions in life. Get rid of people who do not bring you joy. Help people. Be kind.
Yes, centuries. Homer had a word for it.
I don't understand, he seems to be dealing with that syntax like two lines later?

...

“But wait! Python has a ternary condi­tional expres­sion!” It doesn’t change the essen­tial point, but OK—you can indeed write this:

42 + (100 if 1 < 0 else 200)

But now suppose we want to use a condi­tional in place of the oper­ator, not the right-hand value. In a Lisp, because every­thing is an expres­sion—including the oper­ator itself—this is easy:

((if (< 1 0) + * ) 42 100)

But if you try the same thing in Python, it will raise a syntax error:

42 (+ if 1 < 0 else * ) 100

...
I don't understand the parallel being drawn. The US doesn't require you to file for a patent if you'd rather keep your technology secret.
1. Decorators. See https://blog.ploeh.dk/2010/04/07/DependencyInjectionisLooseC...

2. Yes, you need a lot of model types (groups, layers). You need the view models, the database models, the business logic models, and possibly others. Sure, that's annoying at first because they're pretty much identical. That's fine though, because in that case you can just use AutoMapper or something similar.

I have never seen a project where the various models didn't change independently in a short timeframe (weeks, months at the most).
Forgive my Canadian Inquisition but is having fun considered a dopamine hit?
> The people who prefer initv are the people who enjoy digging in other people’s (untestable) Bash scripts

This is demonstrably untrue. I strongly prefer SysV (which is not to say I think SysV is wonderful or anything) over systemD for a number of architectural and functional reasons.

But I do not enjoy digging into other people's init scripts. Fortunately, I rarely have to do that. I think the last time I had a problem with someone's init script was over 7 years ago.
The discussion reminds me of a founder I knew who was very proud that his successful company was bootstrapped and of how much of a risk taker he was. He’d be quick to point out that in order to be truly successful you needed to “lay it all out on the line” and “have skin in the game.” What he wouldn’t tell you, and you had to dig and do a little internet stalking to find out was that this was his fourth attempt, and after each of his past failed businesses, he’d just fall back to his upper middle class family (attorneys), chilling there while he dreamt up his next business idea.

Big risk taker, for sure.
By definition, it's not a risk if there's a safety net.
Humans under what, then? I wonder if you're aware that the socialist economies of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union were not just economic failures; they were also environmental catastrophes.

Jeffrey Sachs has commented that the socialist nations had “some of the worst environmental problems in the entire globe.”. Companies can be held to account (failure to do so is another story) but try that with a centrally run enterprise.
> that is, you need to have a "safety net" before you can take risks. If one can't even get them fed and not worrying about what the next meal is and where to stay, all bets are off.

To take the other side of this (not to entirely disagree with you) people have a different attitude toward risk and betting the ranch given the exact same safety net or lack of it. Someone with rich parents may not take the risk (for fear of 'I told you so' or being derided) and someone poor might be quite the gambler and think 'I really don't care if I fail and if I can't feed my family this is just right and the time is NOW!'

> If you don't agree with me, name one entrepreneur who has found a startup that exited successfully(IPO or Acquisition) by now and that the founder(s) were living below poverty line or on social welfare.

Very possible also that the people giving the funding are not aware of a safety net and therefore think the entrepreneur is less bankable because they actually fear for them failing since they know the chance of failure is quite high. So they pass thinking they are doing them a favor. This (per my above statement) would vary with the amount of a gambler the investor is and/or how much of a conscience they have.
Or, especially the first one, would already have been there from the very beginning.

But I see the advantage of Tesla's approach. On the other hand I can sign up with our family Peugeot for regular updates for free for, it was, 2 years or so. Not over the air the registration is a pain. But it's not that it isn't there.
> When there was a problem with a sysvinit procedure, one could simply fix it. As a result, mostly nobody ever had a problem with it.

To the extent that this isn't flat-out wrong, it's only because SysV init had so few features and so the actual patch had to go to one of many different upstreams. Having had to fix the same classes of problem in hundreds of different places like that has given me an appreciation for how long it's been since I've needed to do anything with systemd other than use it.

One important thing to remember is that the ability to have a standard way to start a process, as a non-privileged user, keep it running, with logging, etc. is something which has been standardized in the Windows world since the early 90s. It's really nice not to keep having to spend time working around the lack of a check-box competition feature for a quarter of a century.
You are not a fixed point. You contain in yourself the ability to change and grow as much as you're willing to. It is not an either/or kind of situation, you may indeed have both.
Julian better lawyer up with some US lawyers soon. International law and treaty violations are ignored in US courts. See,

Why I’m rewriting my SaaS
How many places in the U.S. have the weather and traffic level of a region outside of phoenix? Maybe a region outside of scottsdale? They would scale if they could but that adds more variables that they haven't felt confident enough to tackle yet, otherwise you would see them scale this up and around the U.S.
> Absolutely! As a European I'm only looking at this from an EU-perspective, though. People from other parts of the World should do the same.

Isn't "only looking at this from a [MY NATION]-perspective" exactly what Trump is doing and is being criticized for?
> You won't just get shop owners to upload their opening hours to your service as well as google maps

Over the last couple of years, I have noticed some shop owners (mainly chains, but also individual proprietors) adding their opening hours to OpenStreetMap themselves. Certainly more needs to be done to compete with Google, but OSM is still a libre alternative with some level of uptake. Plus, anyone walking past an establishment can add its opening hours from what the sign on the door says.
Why is forcing a joint venture a bad deal? Isn’t that choice? You don’t have to do business in China.

Some of my friends that are the most angry about this topic, will on the other hand, defend American companies who pay low wages saying no one is forcing the workers to take those low paying jobs.
Mary Oliver's Poetry Captures Our Relationship with Technology
I love that book.

Every time I look at it, I get the feeling someone had a vision. Maybe took something particularly great. Maybe was just a little too bat shit. Maybe drank bad mead?

Whatever the source for the excellent illustrations, they convey a strange land with compelling oddities. It is all fantastic!

Should this prove to be trolling?

Epic whoever you were. Well played.
> She was under no obligation to remain in the United States.

It's quite difficult to immigrate somewhere else when you're a convicted criminal; most places will bin your application immediately. Claiming asylum would also have made returning to the US impossible. Perhaps Manning wanted to see her family?
Specifically with the original iPhone: no 3G, no MMS, semi-frequent crashes. I owned an original iPhone in 2007, so clearly the problems weren't enough to deter me, but it wasn't a perfect device.

It was, however, in an entirely different conceptual category from its competitors.

The same could be said of Tesla, I guess, but I'm still very much a skeptic on Tesla. My point is just that being in a different conceptual category is a huge advantage. Perhaps Tesla will capitalize on that and come out on top (as Apple did), or perhaps it will be some other company (as Google did with Android), but I think it will happen.
For Discord, I tend to mute all but the most relevant ones. This usually ends up being the general channel or the one or two channels that I actually cared about and why I joined in the first place.

I tend to treat channels as faster paced forums, more or less.

Are self driving cars going to eliminate traffic deaths? Tesla already has a body count.
Most journalists are simply cowards. They know the importance of the things they are covering, and they know that saying the wrong things will be bad for them. So they play along the game, knowing that maintaining the facade they will get good promotions and stay in the media. That's the only explanation I can find for the way they are complicit with this kind of thing.
Only when the cost of failure exceeds the cost of quality will we see real improvements. The company producing the software should bear this burden.

Licensure for software developers will only benefit the professional liability insurance industry.
The world isn’t fair. Pontificating about how the world isn’t fair is useless. It’s a waste of your time.

Both Paul and Matthew would be more helpful by providing advice to effectively deal with one’s situation in order to found a company. That would be valuable, instead of engaging in adversity olympics which is what most of Twitter seems to be nowadays.
Systemd is a bunch of loosely coupled tools, though; it's not a monolith at all. PulseAudio was written by Lennart but isn't part of systemd. You don't have to use systemd's resolver. systemd-nspawn is a completely separate process and isn't required for systemd as a whole.

It's worth watching Benno Rice (a BSD developer, actually) discuss systemd and some of the misconceptions, some of which you're expressing, therein: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_AIw9bGogo

HTTPS: //Www.healthsuperclub.com/Proline-Keto/
ProLine Keto First you had to measure your height in meters. Then the resulting number multiplied by itself that is, squared. Then measure the weight in kilograms and divide by height in squares. The resulting number is the body mass index. If it is less than 18, then it is urgently necessary to “fatten”. If from 18 to 20, then this is the norm, but an index exceeding 25 is already a terrible sign. If you correctly substitute the weight in this formula, you can find out how much your parameters differ from the ideal ones. True, this formula also has its "enemies", who invented more sophisticated torture for beautiful ladies. So, on some Internet resources you will be offered to measure not only weight and height, but also the thickness of the neck, wrist and thigh. Then you compare the information with a smart table on the site - and either considers yourself a beauty queen or a fat fed hamster. Of course, you do not confess to anyone, but these are the peculiarities of the female psyche, when the ladies are thrown from one extreme to another. In fact, the ideal method for calculating the correct weight does not exist. Doctors have long proved that everything is purely individual. To find out the real ideal weight for a particular person, you need to spend a lot of tests. Thus, growth, age, and the presence of various diseases are taken into account. Just some diseases can provoke weight gain, from which you cannot get rid of in any way. In such cases, the ideal weight of this person will be very different from his healthy peer.

you're taking that to an oddly personal level.

Obviously, the views of China vs SK are different in the US right now. Who is to say what the future holds if South Korea tries to make stronger ties with North Korea (considering NK blames the US for their current stalemate)? I'd argue that Samsung probably wants to have a contingency for things that are outside of their control, but yeah, out of wack thinking.

That's a general problem with all-you-can-eat subscriptions whether games, Adobe products, or O'Reilly books. If you're a fairly heavy and regular user, subscriptions are usually not a bad deal. You get access to try new things out and you have a known predictable cost.

However, most people are relatively light and irregular users. For a $5 a month service, that may be OK. But as the price goes up it gets less and less attractive for anyone who isn't a heavy user.
The article doesn't cover this, but how do people discover these group chats? All the Discord servers I've joined I've essentially found by word-of-mouth, which doesn't seem very high tech. In the old days you'd find the interesting online forums by "surfing the web".

That's interesting; they actually discuss the issue and talk about parallelizing it, but all you need to do is pass a requirements file to pip.

It would be nice if pip could act more as a base tool and pass information back to a wrapper.
Thank you for taking the fight and making a scene! I tell myself that I will send Facebook my GDPR letter one day, but just thinking about the time and brainpower I’d have to spend to understand exactly what my rights are and how to exercise them, makes me dread it.
Why is that? Perhaps I don't operate in these supposedly important circles, but I have never found my affordable state degree to be a handicap in anything that mattered. Granted, that's because it's an engineering degree and, as my neighbor and fellow engineer once put it, after your first job people care more about what you've done than where you went to school.
Please tell me that is not what Musk really thinks he's doing...
Changing an existing class (modification) is possibly bad, because it can introduce bugs. The code was working, you made a change, oops!

Adding a new class (when the code was written to be extensible) should prevent that.

See for example [1] where Sandi Metz shows how to rewrite some incredibly complex code to make that possible.

Out of curiosity, what distros do you use that you've had such a good run with init scripts?
Interesting to look thru, not sure I totally trust it. I live in central Illinois in farm country and every farmer i know is quite wealthy. They have a healthy lineage, grandpa, dad, son (and also grandma, mom, daughter). The work is passed on thru the family and young folks are walking into millions.
Stuff like this is why I've become a huge advocate for automatic formatting tools. If you can set rules for naming conventions, line breaks, etc. then it significantly cuts down on the minutia arguments.

It doesn't fix everything, of course. Someone can still argue about using too many assertions or comments but it at least helps. If someone makes an argument about formatting then you can just say "well, Tool X formatted it this way so this is how it will be. If we think that should change in the future then let's open a different issue and discuss that."
For some reason these IRC vs X discussions always have the IRC party attributing character flaws to everyone else.

Like not being creative enough to read the same amount of information from ":)" and specific, rich, custom emoji like, I don't know, someone simply shrugging. That's some bizarre self-aggrandizement.

Docker provides some more approachable tooling on top and (IMO, at least) its networking is more straightforward for "developer-y" use cases.

What is it about China that allowed them to so quickly internalize that high speed rail tech so they could compete with Siemens or Kawasaki?

Meanwhile, in the US, our government is on the verge of shutdown every year because we have to raise some artificial debt ceiling to keep the federal government operating.

Why are the Chinese so much more efficient? Americans, even progressive Americans, often think of government being large, inefficient, and bloated. What’s the disconnect?

I agree with your point. But I think people are looking at the categories differently. You're comparing poverty to middle class, while others are comparing middle class to upper middle class/wealthy. I think Paul G. is saying you don't have to be upper middle class to be a founder. I don't think he's saying you could be living on a park bench with no food and your six kids on Monday, and be a founder on Tuesday.
