I don't understand how those things are related. What does forcing Huawei to fork Android on their cell phones in China and Europe (by totally forbidding them from doing business with Google) have to do with 5G infrastructure in the US?

If the US is so concerned, can't they just ban them from 5G infrastructure? Why is it necessary to fork Android?
But does America watching John Smith from NYC in space have a larger impact than seeing Larry Ellison (also from NYC) in space? Is that difference large enough to outweigh the impact that changing Ellison's worldview could have?

No, you just need the right ultra-capacitors. Like Nawa's:

Yup, that's pretty much it. Unfortunately many people don't have the stomach for the market and end up selling at the worst possible time trying to avoid additional losses.

After all, if everyone was totally rational and held through downturns then market crashes would largely be eliminated.

I see from one of the charts that the average movie rating from 2019 is over .5 higher than the previous 5 years, in what appears to be a big jump. Is it possible that recency bias is only relevant on a shorter timescale? It looks like ratings are higher for movies that are a few months old, based on the data. I wonder if this is generally true, or if early 2019 happens to have higher rated movies.

I am currently in China on holiday and saw a Windows 7 screen on one of the monitors in a train station which reminded me that the world's entire IT infrastructure is mostly powered by Windows, Apple or Linux, which is all entirely in the hands of the US. Android and iOS are the most wide spread mobile operating systems, so basically the US being in control of the world's entire software in an ever growing digital world. This plus the revelations of the NSA spying on everyone in the world, trying to introduce secret backdoors in US vendors software and having a huge impact on which cryptographic algorithms are being NIST approved and therefore distributed and implemented across most programming languages makes the US a MUCH MUCH larger threat to any other country's national security. Particularly when the US is also known to fabricate news like countries having secret mass destruction weapons which somehow can never be found after a complete destruction of a country through unprovoked war. Yet the news headlines are somehow worried about Huawei?

I'm not saying it's unjustified, but I like to put things into perspective when observing geopolitical developments, their impact and what really is going on..

The truth is that China will inevitably overtake the US as the largest economy in the world soon and that pisses the Americas off.. so now they want to stall the Chinese economy as much as possible, but being in China right now and seeing how they are literally not dependent on anyone but themselves I can promise that all efforts are wasted. I'm not a huge fan of the totalitarian communist government in China, but so far I have not felt threatened by them, whereas I feel my personal freedom and privacy has been violated constantly by the US and US companies.

They might be responsible for global warming in a relatively unknown way.

When all aircraft were grounded the day of the WTC attacks of 9/11/2001 and the following few days, meteorologists noticed that the average US temperatures decreased a few degrees.

Since then there have been investigations into contrails reflecting and retaining heat in much the same way as the CO2 greenhouse effect.

They took something that worked fine, then broke it after they had the majority of users. There are backwards compatible and secure methods (Like allowing a unique password per device). It is an obvious tactic to force people to choose between gmail web client, and outlook/thunderbird/aerc.

One thing I often am in want of when looking at Topo is an indication of which direction the slope goes. Simple enough to determine in many cases, but there are some oddball geographies out there. I usually add a shaded relief layer to help with this.
In the process of using a town's court website to try to pay a parking ticket, I practically-accidentally found a security vulnerability in it. The vulnerability immediately showed me many people's personal information. I closed the page when I realized what had happened. I didn't report the issue because I was worried that the people running a small town's buggy court website might be more interested in figuring out what laws I broke than understanding the issue. I'd rather have nothing to do with it. It's the only time I haven't reported a security vulnerability I've found. I'm probably over-thinking it, but when there's other groups that invite vulnerability reports and even give bug bounties, it just feels like an unnecessary risk reaching out to ones that don't.

That's where decisions around consistency kick in.

You need to decide if you absolutely do not want to serve any API call unless you are sure they've been paid for, in which case you have to create a commit transaction on that account for each call. Or you decide how much you can let a would be rotten customer get away with, and uses queues which leads to eventual consistencies.

> I doubt very seriously that they will cancel the email forwarding without the user specifically turning off the forwarding.

Where's this confidence coming from? If Apple sees it fit to prevent you (the developer) from accessing your Apple specific userbase for any reason / violation, other people seem correct in their theorization that there's nothing you can really do as the developer.

Not implementing this new "Sign in with Apple" will also probably be interpreted as not being privacy friendly by the users, a developer can't really have that either.

It would be extremely unusual for an investigator to continue an interrogation after a direct request for an attorney.

A Federal judge wouldn't order property held by the local PD returned. And why would they have it if the FBI conducted the raid and was doing the forensics?
Yahoo has had disposable email for a long time. You can create upto 500 disposable email addresses (by going to Settings->More Settings->Mailboxes).

Also, you can give this email address a base name that is different from your normal email address so if your normal address is xyz@yahoo.com, you can have "abc" as the base name of your disposable addresses, and your disposable emails will have addresses of the form abc-<your-chosen-disposable-id>@yahoo.com (abc-spamsite1@yahoo.com for example).

So unlike gmail's "plus" email addresses, it's not possible to decipher your real email id from the disposable one. Very handy.

Combine this with Firefox's ability to remember userid/passwords and sync across devices, and you have a powerful privacy toolset that is not a pain to use and is not controlled by any single entity.
> Learned as junior: If you report an OS bug or some other deep problem, seniors will not believe you

Same thing happens in reverse! ;)

A few years back I told 3 devs who reported to me that there was a bug in Laravel database sub system.

The bug was: If you use the word "returning" in any Laravel insert query the system would crash (Laravel 3 & 4).

None of my guys would believe me!

I finally tracked the bug down to

> laravel/database/connection.php

> public function query($sql, $bindings = array())
> {
> ... etc ...
> elseif (stripos($sql, 'insert') === 0 and stripos($sql, 'returning') !== false)

I sent an email to the Laravel team and never got a response... but the bug stopped happening some time after that ;)

I think it was relate to mySQL version as well.
If there's an important difference (e.g. a performance requirement that a hash table wouldn't meet), I'd have a test that checks that. If not, it's probably an arbitrary choice that doesn't matter. If the decision is worth recording, it's worth recording properly.
Well, the GPL requires that they have the license text available somewhere.
I'm guessing that there are probably better ways to manage fire risk than to wait for some random power lines to overheat.

For example, if you do a controlled burn you can pick the day with the best weather conditions and have trained responders ready to deal with any problems. If a random power line overheats, you only know about it when half the state is on fire.
Yes, eventual consistency, which is exactly the alternative I mention in my original post.

If you can tolerate eventual consistencies (most problem can), than the database is no longer the slower piece.

Lobbying is great, you, yourself can talk to your local representative. If lobbying is removed, then you can't legally talk to your local representative. Which means those with a lot of money can afford to illegally 'lobby'.

The problem is why are USA politicians so easy to sway with lobbying? Is it voters? Is it the two-party system? Is it that easy to get re-elected?

The ease of sway with lobbying is a symptom of something deeper and systemic. IMO, I think it's the two party system (One party away from China!). If you disagree, who's the third most popular party in USA? Europe and many other countries have a sizable third most popular party(!).
After signing up you would request a non proxy email. Hence, the “real” email. You would then test that the user supplied email is legit.
Sure - for example, fans of a particular actor, director, or series are more likely to go see a movie soon after release in theaters as opposed to later via rental or streaming.

Fans are likely to rate higher than the general public, so over the first, lets say, 3-12 months, ratings often trend down.
Gotta say though, I think the overview effect is its own form of delusion. Whether you think other strangers' conflicts are petty or not is immaterial to whether or not they should continue. You can't just not conflict, it's simply not an option. From the extremely privileged (not to downplay the incredibly hard work and model perseverance of astronauts) perspective of an astronaut, of course other people's kinds of lives seem trivial, because you have no idea how other people live.

Yep. When I was at IBM, part of releasing something was a review every of dependency and it's license. The stuff I worked on wasn't allowed to include any GPL code. (Or WTFPL, for that matter, but I think that had more to do with curse words than actual license issues.)

> Writing a trampoline necessitates a bunch of "why"s, and there's no way to just substitute a declaration for it (without pushing the whole mess somewhere else).

I've got a trampoline in my codebase to avoid a stack overflow. The why is the test that a certain repeated operation doesn't stack overflow.

There are a number of places where it could've been implemented with one technique or another, but there's no particular reason that the approach I've taken should be better or worse than one of the other options. If there was, I'd want to formalise that (e.g. if I'd chosen one approach because it performed better than another, I'd want a benchmark test that actually checked that).
GitHub shocks top developer: Access to 5 years' work inexplicably blocked
I disagree with your first sentence in its sweeping overgeneralization. The second sentence seems somewhat true but there's a reason why eBay failed in China: they ported their English website over without consideration for the idiosyncrasies if the chinese market and netizen.

These two sentence are also not intrinsically linked. Just because there has been protectionism does not mean that the China apps are automatically worse. In fact, a bunch of features of weibo and we chat have found their way to Twitter and WhatsApp. (One example are voice messages which were a core part of wechat from the start. They were important to get people in rural areas or older people to use the app, due to the difficulties of typing Mandarin, especially dialects.)

Rejection isn't new - what's new is using a variation of his "use the high order bits of the 64x64 multiply by a range to get a random number efficiently" trick (which he published two or three years ago) to substantially improve the efficiency of a rejection sampling method.

The efficient random number in a range trick is really cool. I've used it in a couple of data structures that we've designed - it's substantially faster than using modulus, or even using pre-computed division by reciprocal multiplication.

Moving from denormalization to denormalization can be hard, and you end up with a sui generis application, versus a normalized database where so much has been written about how to deal with problems up to a reasonably large scale, although the document store style does seem to be reasonably popular so maybe I'm missing something.
