Backwards compatibility. VisiCalc only did approximate lookups (http://www.felienne.com/archives/3980. Also a good article on the problems of this default)

Yes, they could have made the argument required, and have their file converter add it, but users typed in formulas from magazines at the time, so that wouldn’t have worked there, unless they added UI for it.
Maybe English isn't their first language?
AMD is releasing its 7nm Ryzen 3000 CPUs on 7/7
That might be an interesting attempt to teach kids to use tech meaningfully, rather than fiddle around with Reddit, YouTube & co like most of us. Whether that will rally succeed is another question. The internet is an eternal evolutionary struggle for "most captivating activity" and our brains are not equipped to overcome all the nudges and addictive designs.
So really it'd be best to hang up the moist blanket and have a well-ventilated room.
In typical urban speeds you are as likely to crash into people or bicycles as into another car.

And then the additional mass is making it more dangerous, not less.
> But think about what attracted you to Linux in the first place. [...] It was probably a sense of freedom, the promise of a more robust, more secure, more private system.
OpenBSD is just the next step on that ladder

Although I agree that OpenBSD can offer a cleaner experience if you are willing to compromise on the software you use, when it comes to freedom, I would not consider OpenBSD the next step on the ladder.
Of course this is a very personal and philosophical question, but a very significant difference to Linux is the permissive BSD licensing used by OpenBSD. In my opinion the GNU licensing is a big reason why GNU/Linux got so successful since it pushed big companies like IBM to feed their contributions back into the GNU/Linux ecosystem.
You can ask for reasonable adjustments in the workplace. You now have a reason that explains the difficulties you've had in your life. You can understand why situations are difficult or overwhelming for you, and what you need to do to cope with those situations.
This looks promising, animations in React are a bit of a mess right now.

React-motion requires a PhD to figure out, and I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than use Transition Group.

I have had some moderate success with Popmotion, although I've also seen performance issues when staggering lists (likely down to my implementation rather than the library, but still).
Redistributing wealth isn't any more inherently aggressive than any other change. If people object violently to being asked to share the bounties of our industrial economy, that's no different from if they objected violently to being asked to put up with their sister marrying a woman, or to stop smoking in the restaurant.
Is WHATWG pronounceable?
I have a subaru forester and it's quite addictive. It's easier to get in and out of, the view is higher, and the suspension is wonderful. The a, b, and c pillars are quite small to help visibility. The extra ground clearance and good suspension means that speed bumps, driveways, parking lot entrances/exits etc are less of a bother.

Generally crossovers/SUVS have smaller wheelbases, are easier to see out of, and easier to park. I find the extra space quite useful and while my Forester XT doesn't feel as good as my WRX, it does feel better than the vast majority of sedans I've driven. Sure a BMW 3 series or Tesla model 3 feels sportier.
The Power of Interfaces in OpenFaaS
No, the W3C publishes a lot of standards apart from HTML and DOM, and they would still be somehow involved here too.

However, it is indeed sad that the HTML spec is now controlled by browser makers only, and the editors are mostly from just one company.
You do render it twice. For example, when toggling the `play` property. It looks like the component will adjust smoothly.
Or it could be a relationship similar to that between the IAB and IETF
The law in Malaysia was changed a few months ago making the importation of trash illegal.

Some of the current ministers are going so far as to brand the owners of these companies as traitors.

Malaysia is beginning to understand the consequences of their environmental decisions, and there is a growing awareness of the impact of palm oil plantations and single use plastics.

In the UK, there's a total campaign spending limit.

And it's low - the maximum a candidate can spend in the 25 days before polling day is ~$21000 (The national party has a separate budget - and rules about which expenses go against which budget)

The consequence of this is parties are relatively less dependent on raising money - and it's relatively more important to get volunteers, as the spending limit isn't enough to mail two letters per voter.
No signs at all? All green technology, efficiency improvement and conservation initiatives globally add up to zero in your book? Most reasonable people agree there's much more to be done, perhaps that we're only beginning to scratch the surface of what should be done, but to dismiss it is absurd. We should celebrate and applaud initiatives that are heading in the right direction - for example, UK power plants recently went 5 days with zero coal burning emissions, the longest coal free streak since the industrial revolution.
Or it's just made up bullshit.

Seriously, gross deformations of the brain, visible to the naked eye, are pretty dubious and questionable in my mind.

Meanwhile, the genetics that produce psychological disposition are more than hotly debated. Why? Because, think very carefully about where this story takes us. If we can say intellect is linked to genes, this puts a huge number of people in a box they cannot escape. Should the "dumb" people reproduce? Do we put laws in place so that only useful people have children?

Who is useless?

Are all people really created equal?
> Yes, that's the price of wanting to avoid reading reviews.

> You can avoid 99% of counterfeits by buying only from sellers with good feedback. Just look if it's at least 95% and over say 100 feedback.

Reviews and feedback are all thoroughly gamed. Can't speak for Amazon, but my wife worked for couple e-commerce companies selling on Allegro, our local Amazon/eBay equivalent, and from her I know (and seen it myself) that the following are common practices:

- When someone leaves a negative review, the company will do its best to bribe the customer - free gifts, rebates for next purchase, whatever, just so that they cancel the negative review.

- In order to boost its positive/negative ratio and keep it around ~99% positive, the company would routinely order its employees to make orders from home, choosing "payment on delivery" as an option. After couple of days they were to mark the orders as completed and give stellar feedback with some realistic-sounding review texts. The orders of course went to /dev/null themselves, so the only cost to anyone was the sales percentage Allegro took.
I often think about that. There are no guarantees for job safety as an employee, there is only the fact that you work within a statistical ensemble of other people having a very similar job and can use them to tell how well you're doing.

If you find paid work on your own, you learn different skills that could prove to be better for survival, since you're less dependent on an external entity.

Did not downvote you, but I think you might have missed the point: If the package is widely in use, one could change the host that is pinged/whatever. People probably don't look in depth at such packages and will just update it. This leads to probably MASSIVE traffic to endpoints which are not expecting this.

That is pretty much what happend with this dubious WordPress plugin developers that changed their "license check" or keep-alive check or whatever to do some hundred thousand (or so) "checks" to their competitors website per hour.
...there's ADHD-PI ("primarily inattentive") that lacks the highly visible hyperactivity signs you find in TV-stereotipical ADHD.

It's even worse when masked by high-IQ and good coping behaviors, because when life hits you hard with trouble, it flares up and gets amplified a zillion time, and you go from 'genius' to 'retarded' instantly!

(Couple the frustration of this with some testosterone and some bad habits and you can get pretty close to "stupid and violent criminal" levels and at that point society loses all sympathy for you. I got close to this but stopped, but I imagine that most of the clever-and-ultra-violent-criminals that fill up the prisons worldwide are mostly "my kind of people" but they just lacked some special "stabilizing component" that my brain happened to have and theirs didn't.)
I think they write 'should' when they mean 'need to if you want the aforementioned to be a practical attack vector'
Isn't the main difference that OpenBSD is an actual UNIX OS while Linux is UNIX-like?
I've read that the education of women seems to be the thing which has the biggest impact on lowering birth rates in developing nations. Educated women can work better jobs and leave the home more. I'd guess that part of it is also basic sex education about reproduction and contraception, as well as delaying when they start having children if they're still in school.
I'd actually like to use OpenBSD, but then I have to use Airplay with Apple TVs every day, itunes for the tablet/phone, photoshop, illustrator, nvidia graphics cards and CUDA, Docker, etc.

So I'm completely locked into a single vendor.
Doesnt matter, grammar still needs checkin!
While Malaysia is far from perfect it makes me very happy to see it being the cultural and environmental leader South East Asia needs.

I have high hopes for the future of Malaysia and am very happy with my decision to make it my home.

I’m surprised by some of the responses on here. You don’t have to take this shit. Your client is a bully.

Log everything, inform your management you will not be bullied, and in a professional tone, parrot each assholish thing your client says.

If they remain unmoved, tell them upfront this is abusive behavior and it ends now. This will either stop them in their tracks or you will eventually be fired. That’s when you consult a lawyer.

I called out two executives in my workplace for similar shit. I was prepared to be fired. Instead the abusive behavior ended immediately.

"Non-deterministic tests have two problems, firstly they are useless, secondly they are a virulent infection that can completely ruin your entire test suite."

"To this I would like to add that flaky tests are an incredible cost to businesses."

I think that the misconception here is that "tests should not fail", because they are "cost", "has to be analyzed and fixed", etc.

An integration or functional test that is guaranteed to never fail is kind of useless for me. Good test with a lot of assertions will fail occasionally since things are happening - unexpected data are provided, someone manually played with the database, ntp service was accidentally stopped and date in not accurate and filtering by date might be failing, someone plugged in some additional system that alters/locks data.

In case of unit tests, well, if everything is mocked and isolated then yes, such test probably should never fail, but unit tests are mostly useful only if there is some complicated logic involved.
In Western countries that place a high value on equality (Europe/US) and countries with strong authoritarian governments (China). I think it's a big untested assumption to assume that what happened in Norway will happen in India and Nigeria.
If the software and the documentation differ, that's a bug.
If you don't understand the docs, there's a bug in the documentation.

OpenBSD does not like bugs :-)
And you don't feel any qualms when your random cheap stuff breaks (or simply doesn't do the job very well) and ends up in landfill?

Source: I prescribe antibiotics

This situation is legitimate.

Example: I prescribe you 5 days of trimethoprim for a urinary tract infection. It's 1 tablet per day. It comes in a box of 7. You can do the maths.

Edit: and as others have suggested, if patients ask me what to do with extra meds of any kind I suggest they take them to the pharmacy.
Kyoto is also a megacity, so it's pretty much saying "Hey I live in another huge city in Japan and there's also a lot of combinis". You can say the same thing about Osaka, too.
Facebook Privacy Settlement Delayed by FTC Split
I don't understand all the negativity in other posts in this thread.

Poverty is falling dramatically right now, and is falling faster than the UN ever predicted. It is quite likely that we can feed 7bn people.

We have 80 years to come up with the technology to feed another 4bn by 2100. And population will probably fall after that. That sounds doable to me. Food technology is making huge gains, if we have lab grown meat at almost a tenth of the cost, imagine how much easier it becomes to feed everyone.

Why the pessimism? I know everyone's facebook feed is full of the world ending, but the situation isn't actually that bad.
Maybe it's just me, but I've never heard about the WHATWG before. And for everybody like me, that acronym stands for "Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group".
I'd add that stress is experienced during a period of adaptation. However... in some modern high-pressure corporate environments (AKA office jobs) you can can never fully adapt, never get on top of things. The pressure is relentless and the environment de-humanising.

Human brains arnt built to withstand the onslaught of meaningless emails and endless reports and presentations. Offices are just awful in many instances.
There's something about OSS that fails to do (or i'm not sure if it's OSS job): Teach how things work under the hood.

Normally, it's beneficial 100x times when a OSS project tells how things work in a concise manner.

In that way, it made sense for both users (they actually want to contribute back if they figure out how things work).

One failure example is Next.JS. You never understand how things work under the hood without digging source code.
Why do you think that blocking Facebook is censorship? You are not blocking a particular book or post, you are blocking a company that disregards privacy many ways, filtering the internet according their internal policy that is not accessible to the outside world while selling user data to the highest bidder.
But no browser maker recognizes the W3C standard or claims to implement it, so what good is it?
Wirecutter is great, can recommend. They don't always have reviews for particular things I want, but when they do, I end up going with one of their picks and I never had a single problem with these purchases. For instance, the first thing I bought off their recommendation was a Bluetooth earpiece, some 3+ years ago, and unlike my previous attempts at buying one, this one not once had a problem with any of my devices, and works perfectly to this very day.

I heard good things about Consumer Reports, and I wish there was something like this for the EU market. I found Wirecutter useful because the things they tend to review are available both in the US and EU (read: electronics), but if I wanted to buy regular life items off recommendations, I'm not sure what to follow locally.
Reminds me of those three Chechen girls who catfished ISIS for $3000 on facebook by promising to be brides if they sent travel money, then blocking them after they did.
>I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than use Transition Group

Why not? In combination with styled components it covers pretty much all my animation needs. The only thing missing is stagger for lists and maybe some way to integrate FLIP into it.
I would have loved to buy a pure-electric vehicle.

Unfortunately, the infrastructure just isn't there so I had to go for a petrol hybrid.

I have no driveway, and there aren't even parking bays on the street. As a result, there's no way to charge my car at home and that's a deal-breaker.
WHATWG is basically the browser vendors sidelining W3C to discuss what features HTML etc should have. The news today is that the W3C finally accepted that situation.
We are still coming out of an ice age. So you comment is false.
Why an older version from a filesharing site instead of the current release from www.ammyy.com ?
The main page https://www.openbsd.org/ describes OpenBSD as UNIX-like. If OpenBSD is UNIX, it’s in the ship of Theseus sense: the outcome of the BSDi lawsuit demonstrated that almost the whole operating system had in fact been rewritten by that time.
Literally no one lives like that.

If you or anyone you know feels like that, then it's a serious outlier condition worthy of academic study.
> Except drag and drop and Ajax. Those are terrible.

And except actual DOM manipulation which is tedious, error-prone, and requires tons of boilerplate.

> I also preferred PrototypeJS over jQuery, its approach of extending objects made way more sense than a god object that wrapped itself around my existing objects.

Prototype extended global objects which made them even more magic and would break vanilla JS. jQuery creates a wrapper object with well-defined methods and lets you access the actual unaltered underlying DOM object.

And their resulting APIs are not that different

// Prototype
$('comments').addClassName('active').show()

// jQuery
$('#comments').addClass('active').show()
As someone deep in the markup world, I'd say thank god XForms didn't make it, though I don't know Mozilla started WHATWG, let alone for promoting XForms of all things (Mozilla/Netscape once introduced JavaScript). WHATWG was Ian Hickson's (of Google) project, started out very successfully in adding capabilities to the web, but sadly turned into an instrument for browser monopoly.

As for validation, you can parse/validate all published versions of HTML, including W3C HTML 5, 5.1, and 5.2 using SGML and my SGML DTD grammar(s) [1] for HTML 5.x. SGML (ISO 8879) is the original markup meta-language on which both HTML and XML are based. XML was once started as a subset of SGML (dropping tag inference/omission, SGML-style empty elements, attribute shortforms, and other features requiring DTD declarations for the concrete markup language to parse).

Article says ntp-> openntpd

At least on Linux, openntpd is unreliable - it might be secure but it fails to keep time properly unless it follows exactly one source or all sources agree perfectly (so I would assume it would equally fail on OpenBSD as well)

ntpd is indeed horrible; but chrony is the bees knees from both functionality and security standpoints - openbsd would do well to move to it.
> fabricating evidence like this?

Are we talking about the same thing? Slowing down a video 25% is not fabricating anything, it's just "slowing down the actual video", and people found it very quickly so it was rather obvious. Fabrication involves changing what the person actually says in my book.

Yes, researcher needs to be trained on ethics specifically. It is a part of psychological education, it is a part of APA's mission[1]. Psychology takes it seriously after Little Albert Experiment[2], Ash Conformity Experiment[3], Zimbardo's Standford Prison Experiment[4], Milgram Experiment[5] and a lot of others. Now it couldn't be done, a researcher needs to approve his experimental plan with APA Ethics Committee.

It means, that any competent researcher in a psychology would know ethical risks (due to education), and if he is testing his research plan on his family, he must be ready to find something unexpected, and he must inform participants on the risks.

I typically split if I have some interrelated code that I need to cross-reference, e.g. when refactoring. Especially if this code is in the same file, in which case windows into the same buffer have the added benefit of synchronized editing. Another example: when programming C, it is useful sometimes to have the header in one vim window and the definitions in the other. Or you're navigating via ctags, and it's convenient to view a tag in a new window rather than change the buffer for the current window.

If I'm just editing two completely unrelated files I don't see any advantages to this workflow over opening multiple instances. Maybe if you have plugins that are slow to start up?

Problems are soluble. This is the first time our species has encountered this problem, and will solve it or we will die. I think we will solve it. Regardless, we need to solve it at 8 billion or 20 billion. The thing that will solve it is people, and we need more of them and more of them working on the problem.
In purely philosophical terms, you could say it's "scientific." But... in practice science is an institution as much as it is a method. In that sense "unscientific" means that something doesn't come from the scientific institution/culture.. regardless of who is on what side of a Karl Popper test of science.
That itself is not a significant difference. I think *BSDs are great because they have a saner design (man hier for example) and in many regards superior software, like pf. The do not have the millions of dollars spent on development though, meaning less features and less available guides, help online etc.
These are the same people who created XHTML, an ivory tower idea nobody was waiting for... who didn't support the most popular layout method at the time, tables, in their new styling language CSS.

W3C became irrelevant because they kept thinking they could just tell the entire web what to do, that they'd make enormous technical investments to satisfy the W3C's latest fashions.

I interacted with them once, over their seamless iframe proposal. I had to point out that the two biggest uses of iframes at the time, i.e. Twitter embeds and Facebook apps, could not make use of it, despite being a perfect fit. They just hadn't considered that.
It's not like anybody of us voted for W3C either (so it's not like one body is the "legitimate" one and other is not).

And the W3C had stalled progress so much in the 00s and 10s, that it deservedly got sidelined.
