People are there to voluntarily give help. They also get loads of really stupid questions and venting does help with keeping them providing help.

One advantage with GitLab Pages is that you don't even need any other service. You have everything in one (free) place (repository, CI/CD, static site hosting, ...). Cloudflare is already only for convenience. Page speed for a static site should be fine also without it. I use Cloudflare mainly for simplifying HTTPS setup and page forwarding rules.
In science-fiction, engines that can accelerate at a constant 1g (more or less) are called torchships. Interestingly enough, there are theoretical designs that achieve that and give us huge amounts of ΔV and still large amounts of thrust.

An example is the "Plasma Jet Magneto Inertial" [1]

The main issue that may not be solved by eventual iterative progress is that these kinds of engines create way too much waste heat.

>Unlike car ownership, gun ownership is also a constitutional right here in the USA, which means you’d need a huge supermajority to repeal that portion of the constitution.

Are all type of guns and weapons legal? If there are exceptions how are those constitutional? I am not from US so I do not understand why not work in steps, make very hard to obtain guns that have high potential of killing people, don't make them illegal but make the permit of owning such a gun very hard to obtain and keep defensive guns (low caliber pistols) more easy to get but not too easy. I assume that are people making money selling guns like they are people making money selling cigarettes so there will b a lot of lobby,PR and campaigns to keep the things are they are now.
>Seriously, people second-guessing you are annoying.

And? You are the extremely small minority. You need to learn to live with it.
Interesting, seems that this is indeed an advantage of GitHub Pages. With GitLab Pages, you have to setup Let's Encrypt certificates for custom domains manually.
I use the voice activated services a lot. It helps turn off the lights in the house while I am watching my kid so I don’t have to drag her up and down the stairs. It helps maintain lots of timers, and grocery lists, and play music when I’ve got my hands full with my kids. I’ve set up some things to only work when I say “please” and make sure I say thank you to the device every time it does something, to teach manners.

My life is pretty pedestrian and my indulgences are simple. I frankly wouldn’t really mind a 24/7 video feed of my house excluding my bedroom and bathroom broadcast publicly.
You will need to elaborate on that.

Edit: Please don't substantially edit your comments after they have a reply.

And you still need to elaborate.
Big part of it is ... intention. If you have human who is willing to kill other people it is at least order of magnitude worse than car accidents or starving to death. If you would have some person starving kids to death intentionally that would be really bad and people would do something about it. But just not getting enough food when a lot of people are already donating loads of money for starving people. It is just, I am sorry, but cannot do anything about it more.

Even if I donate all my earnings to starving children, there still will be some children dying from hunger, I cannot do anything about it.

Shootings in schools are possible to prevent in multiple ways.

I live in Europe and school shootings are not something that happens once a year or twice a year in here like in US. It something that happens once in IDK 10 years or something?
> And they see it as a positive impact.

It looks positive from the perspective of a parent because he sees it as faster acquisition of skills he himself already possesses.

But it might be negative if because of that faster development kids will never have a chance of achieving some skills their parents don't even dream of possessing because their brains got pruned way too soon.

> I carry a mobile device with listening capabilities and internet connection in my pocket basically at all times. I can turn off Siri or Hey Google but again I have to trust that it really is off.

Every time I hear complaints about Google Home/HomePod I bring this up. Most people just shrug and hand-wave it away, saying something like "yeah, but it's just creepy", even when they acknowledge that their phone has even greater spying capabilities. People are terrible at risk assessment.
I’m not sure I understand your question. If you think that school schooling terror is disproportionate to risk (which it sounds like you do), then aren’t the leading causes of actual death extremely relevant? Kids are much more likely to die in a car than at school, so your strawman about Africa might not be super relevant, but auto accidents in the US and auto safety certainly are something we ought to be paying roughly 100x more attention to in the media than school shootings, right?
The OP obviously means 'Western Europe' but the way he wrote it, in the context of international readers, doesn't make sense, because it reads as 'Western Nation' (i.e. Europe, N. America, Australia, NZ) In his local context, 'The West' could very well more likely mean W. Europe, no doubt - I'm sure it's crystal clear to him/her. But this is a North American board, with an international readership.

If you say "Developed Western Nation" in this context, for example, in the press, or even on the BBC it means the 'classical west', not 'E/W Europe'.

Australia is located in Asia Pacific, and the US is in North America but they are 'Western Nations' by virtue of their cultural history.

Just google the term 'Western Nation'.

("What rights does a patent provide?
A patent owner has the right to decide who may – or may
not – use the patented invention for the period in which
the invention is protected. In other words, patent
protection means that the invention cannot be

This is exactly what casual/zero hours job contracts are for in the UK and other common law countries. Treating casual employees as contractors bollocks in a large part of the work.
They don't even have to be that "extreme" about it. Simple tools that would still allow them to "sell" ads but give the user more control.

E.g. Being able to "blacklist" certain domains from results.

Same thing applies to youtube. You can not permanently block/remove/disable channels from being present in the content results/feed.

I think that deep-down Google high-ups "know" that giving some of these "basic" usability features would essentially disable their control of the content that they push to you. E.g. imagine publicly-shared black-lists of bad domains and bad channels that one could subscribe to. Similar to the ad blockings lists that have generated a bit of a thriving ecosystem. I.e. smart people would eventually use this basic "building block" to build content-control that would be more decentralized/democratic and really personal.
Given that there are so many Chinese students, tourists, and businessmen abroad and exposed to foreign media these days, how does these Chinese government manage to still keep a lid on this?
Yes because giving users “a full query language” is appropriate for the masses....
I was doing consulting work for the IOC when cities were bidding for the 2008 Summer Olympics. BOCOG submitted as part of their bid using Tiananmen Square as the site for Beach Volleyball. The IOC had to tell them it was inappropriate and to change that part of their bid. They really do want to pretend nothing happened there.
I was under the impression that the camera/plane was tracking the object
I agree. As someone who likes the idea of being able to drive for Uber for spare cash, I'm not very happy with the heavy-handed way California likes to regulate its economy. Many of these gig economy workers will end up simply relying on the government or foregoing the cash altogether if gigs are taken away.

I think the ones that don't do the math are the ones that think the gig workers don't take into account the risk.

Why is unemployed casual employee better than employeed contractor for you? Because its definitely not for the gigers: if it were, only 1 of the gig companies has to offer the contract, take that into account into the pay they give the employees (or substitutes like insurance) and then they would get all the workers.

There are definite market failures, but the vast majority of denouncing of market failures are people not understanding the market has made a good decision.
It's been a while since I last used minikube, but it was a bit slow then.
There is a new alternative called kind: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kind
I only tested it briefly (on linux), but it seemed faster than minikube.
In contrast to minikube, kind does not use a vm but instead implements a cluster node as a single docker container.

> Are these people being underpaid, and would making them employees increase their pay?

Maybe, maybe not. It would give them access to healthcare and other things a lot of people take for granted.

> The fact that this is the case and people are still flocking to be gig workers should tell you that people want to be Uber drivers, they are not forced into it.

Or, maybe it's an indication that there aren't other jobs available for the people flocking. The want is to make money, not to drive for Uber.
> "Abstract: Fatal crashes of private, business and corporate-executive airplanes have increased after publicized murder-suicides. The more publicity given to a murder-suicide, the more crashes occurred. The increase in plane crashes occurred primarily in states where the murder-suicides were publicized. These findings suggest that murder-suicide stories trigger subsequent murder-suicides, some of which are disguised as airplane crashes."

Polish statehood is not the same as the polish territory at a convenient point of time.

After Versailles, the Poland was established on the territory of Germany, Austro-Hungarian empire and Russian empire. However, the Russian empire part was supposed to be up to the Curzon line.

Instead, the Poles went opportunistic far behind it. What they gained in the war (because Soviets were weak at the time), they lost in the war 20 years later (table has turned, they were weak at the time).

Not that they didn't similar things elsewhere; they had to annex parts of Czechoslovakia too (1919-1920).

Sorry, I don't have sympathy when a conqueror loses whatever they conquered.
This article calls it a lack of leadership in open source, but the reality is Bezos is exploiting everyone using Amazon, from people selling shower curtain hooks to video encoding software, open source deployed across AWS, corrupt tax deals and more. Leadership in open source won't instill ethics or charity in the world's richest man who demands his own not-employees work so hard they must sprint to their lunch break or be fired.

Amazon is accused of using sales data belonging to companies selling products on their platform to help them select 10,000s of products to clone and sell in direct competition to their vendors.

https://www.geek.com/news/amazonbasics-is-copying-all-the-be...

They have copied software hosted on AWS in the past too, whatever proprietary software you're hosting on AWS is hemorrhaging privileged usage data they will happily use against you.

Cool idea. I see some weird rendering issues on my retina Mac. Is that a known issue? https://www.dropbox.com/s/uq18mm1q9braipa/Screenshot%202019-...

Although I can see plastic gears being an alternative choice in some applications, their downsides seem to be many:

* Less load-carrying capacity compared to similarly sized metal gears.

* Molded gears cannot hold the same high tolerances that metal gears can.

* Plastic is less dimensionally stable when compared to metal and this results in dimensional variations due to temperature and humidity conditions.

* Material cost is significantly higher than that of base metals and can vary widely due to fluctuations in the cost of base chemicals.

* Difficulty in attaching plastic gears to metal shafts.

That last point seems especially problematic.

Startups and midsized companies do the same all the time. Are you drawing the line on profit? Number of employees?

As others have said, if you want to make a political statement go for it and name all the companies you don't want using your software explicitly (and keep updating that when they work around you).

Personally, I wouldn't bother. If this is for a business idea, rethink your revenue strategy... licensing alone is a nightmare to enforce.

What about the "Oz problem," as a reference to the man behind the curtain in the Wizard of Oz?
I would prefer a generic message and a promise for follow up once all the facts are known over a rushed response that may be incorrect.

I’m an engineering manager in an infrastructure team (not at all affiliated with Digital Ocean, tho full disclosure, I do have one droplet for my personal website). I know how postmortems generally work, and it’s messy enough to track down root cause even when it’s not some complex algorithm like fraud detection going off the rails.

I’d rather get slow information than misinformation, but I understand the frustration in not being able to see the inner working of how an incident is being handled.
I completely agree.

US Tariffs Drive Some of MSI's Production to Taiwan
True, but when you use the optics "it is no man's land, let's take it while we can", why only in the case of 1919-1921, but not in the 1939 case?

When Soviets crossed Polish borders in 1939, the Polish statehood was exactly in the same defunct state as the Soviet in 1919-21.

In the Bay Area there's something called Casual Carpool; essentially it's just a series of locations you can go to around work-travel hours, and people who have cars and are willing to pick up people going to the same area will randomly show up and pick people up. No scheduling or prior arrangements aside from the locations. (And it's been around way longer than Uber/Lyft/etc.)
Are you really optimising for pleasure, or just for engagement?
Not sure if this is an answer but full weapon possession ban is kind of working in the Europe (not really full ban, bc you still can get gun permission and own gun, though it is not, go to Walmart and buy stuff). There are still some shootings and terrorist attacks but most of the time it works. You don't get school shootings as often as in us.

I am quite right wing and self defense guy but I see the difference, and I would not like to have actual gun. One with rubber bullets would do just fine.

I had right wing nuts people telling me that if there is a terrorist you can help police by shooting that guy from your window and showing thumbs up to SWAT team. That is frikin stupid... SWAT team if they notice someone having gun and not being their team, guess what, they shoot first then ask questions. Showing thumbs up having gun will earn you a bullet. In case of active shooter hide your rambo dreams in pocket, then hide somewhere and wait for professionals.
