> There was a time where people willingly consented to being sold as slaves.

I'm not going to categorically say that that's false, but I find that somewhat hard to believe, except under very contrived circumstances that could hardly be called 'willing' (e.g. "we'll kill your family if you don't"). Do you have a citation for that?
It troubles me that something as well known as JSFiddle can't get a response from Github. I understand they can't reply to every question from Johnny Developer but JSFiddle must have thousands of users.
I use it.

It's neat for finding those wonderful little crazy communities that are hiding out in the anonymizing crypto nets (Tor, I2P, LokiNet, ..)

API Generator – Instantly Generate REST and GraphQL APIs (Openapi (OAS) 3.0.0)
A good compiler can in a large number of cases infer that it won't modify.

The compiler can explore the call graph of the loop body and find out which methods might be called on the list, and then check that none of those methods write to the list's internal length variable.

How deeply and precisely the compiler (or JIT) analyzes the code in an attept to prove that the length won't change involves a tradeoff in compilation speed, but I'd expect .NET to have found a pretty good sweet spot by now.
This is 100% just how you feel, and it's not based on facts. IRC clients come in many varieties and the basic functionality matches Discord in ease of use.

That seemed more like a high school project than the output of the world's largest auto maker. I don't understand what they're trying to tell me, other than perhaps "Toyota hired a futurist and an animator and told them to make a YouTube video."

Also, can anyone explain the "The Future Is Slow" tagline at the end? It was jarring and made me wonder if the whole thing is supposed to be parody.
Firearms is one possible explanation. An other is that women get treatment more than men, particularly for depression. Treatment greatly reduce the risk of completed suicide.

There is a large uncomfortable area within suicide data. In a study, about half who attempt suicide said it was a cry for help. While we can't ask those that die, we do have data that say that those people usually have both a history of suicide attempts and a lack of treatment for it. This combination has a gendered aspect.

So it can be firearms, the culture around treatment, both, or other aspects which explains why men die by suicide 3.54x more often than women while at the same time women attempt suicide 1.2x more than men.

I think the best action to reduce suicide is with the medical profession. Treatment of drug and alcohol addiction, depression, and those who have attempted suicide in the past. We can try to reduce the number of firearms and adding barriers on bridges and subway platforms, but I have my doubts that areas which implement such action actually see a reduction in completed suicides. At best it gives the health care system a bit more time to provide treatment.

Given the nature of the product, there is no way for the maintainers of Js fiddle to prevent it from being used to run arbitrary code, because that is what it's meant to do.

It's also impossible for both jsfiddle or twitter to scan the code of each fiddle and determine if it's legitimate or an attack, so this looks like a good measure from Twitter.

What is surprising is how this was even allowed so far and still is in many social networks, as its such an obvious way to deliver exploits.
They didn't get a response from Twitter. Github isn't really part of this.

What baby are you throwing out? I appreciate that these services are proprietary but there's so little lockin in practice that I struggle to care. My gang already switched from Axon to Skype to Mumble to Discord, if and when Discord becomes onerous then we'll move again. Perhaps even to IRC. But for the time being, UX matters and IRC's remains extremely poor.

Why Dark Gray Is Brighter Than Gray on the Web
Don't elite athletes' explanations of how they got there sound mostly like clichés because their stories are so similar to the aspirations and training and effort [initially] put in by the athletes who didn't make it to elite level?
I know, right? Especially this part:

> Finally her mother said that if Natalia behaved herself for three months straight, stopped violating curfew and went to school, she could return home. Natalia did it, for the entire three months. The court date was set. It was expected to be a walk-through. Formally, the judge asked Natalia’s mother if she would allow her to return home. And her mother laughed. She laughed and said, 'I would never let that girl come live with me again.' The social worker told me Natalia screamed like an animal. She said she had to be held back by court officers.

This reads like something out of Dostoevsky. I like how simion314 puts it. "It is an interesting real life story, with real life problems, for me it showed me some new things, showed me how other people think and react." This is what is appealing about Dostoevsky too. For example, the following passage was illuminating to me:

> I asked why. I don’t remember what he said. I came away with the impression that my friend found the language I used too corny or therapeutic. And it was. Certainly my father would've found it so. But I don’t think that’s the only reason he walked away. If my language was a cliché, it was also heartfelt and naked. That kind of sudden nakedness, without even a posture of elegance, would've been a kind of violence to my father. It would've touched him forcefully in a place he had spent his life guarding. To say 'yes' would’ve allowed too much of that force in too deeply. Saying 'no' was a way of being faithful to the guarded place.

The paper notes that a 1-in-1000 molar concentration of acid was sufficient to trigger low-temperature melting, indicating that the amount of contamination needed is indeed very, very small. The paper does not discuss exact mechanisms of action, but one of the conjectures is that the acid takes the form of excess hydrogen atoms, which could easily tuck themselves into a crystal structure nearly undetectably.

All it takes is catalyzing a few Z->E transitions when the temperature rises to cause the crystal structure to break down, which would explain the lower melting point despite the small amount of contaminant (catalysts often reduce the energy required to start a reaction, but are not themselves consumed so they can further catalyze other reactions).

I don't understand how posting a "wallet code" is dangerous. Is it mining coins while you are browsing the code? Then it just a minor annoyance. Also, browsers should block cryptominers when they are in the background tab.
Yeah but as developer your priority #1 is to deliver ASAP and Electron is great for that. After version 1,2,3 you may start developing native apps but Electron is really great for rapid development/productivity. Performance is/should be your last thing to worry about.

Superior means superior in power, i.e. the ability to act constructively or destructively to further their existence.

The power of the industry grows faster than the power of humans, and while humans are more than ever reliant on the industry to survive, the industry is busy stripping out its meaty bits and destroying ecosystems (bye ants).
The absurd is that lone developers (or small teams) manage to out do in quality apps from large companies. Nowadays, most software by a large company is terrible, even if native. Take a look at Apple's software going downhill, Microsoft software going downhill, etc.

In that case, video editing softwares and materials should also conceal a private key, in order to trace the origin of manipulation.

The whole chain of video production should be signed in order to trace filming and edition altogether and, all intermediary signatures from each stage of production process contained in a final signature.

I think that command is showing you the total number of hours the system has been running, not the uptime - so it could have been rebooted for patching

This is unmitigated bullshit. A huge PR stunt.

Sharing batteries doesn’t work. That’s why Tesla dropped it even though the cars are designed to have batteries swapped in minutes. The only way for battery swaps to work is if truly nobody owns their own car. Which brings me to the next point.

Nobody wants to share their fucking car in America. Your car is your best friend in 90 percent of the country. Nobody wants dirty strangers fucking up their cars. Nobody wants the bed bugs, scabies, dandruff flakes and all the rest. Not to mention crumbs and garbage. It’s bullshit. There will never be widespread car sharing. People have been stroking themselves to this idea for a Fucking decade.

And when they started showing images of the car CATCHING INTRUDERS and opening your door for you, my bullshit alarm rang so loud it fucking exploded. We already depend on a pile of broken bullshit taped together with scotch tape. Taking the disaster that is the IOT and using it to open your door WITH YOUR CAR is a stupid and bad idea and everyone knows it except the idiots at Toyota PR.

Toyota has been making the wrong moves for decades. They INSISTED on making the murai even when it was clear that hydrogen wasn’t going to cut it. The EV revolution is here and all Toyota has is their pathetic failed hydrogen vehicle and the rav4 that they have cancelled and hamstrung multiple times. Meanwhile all the other big players have been busy getting pure EVs on the lot.

This is solar roadways levels of bullshit!

VSCode is bad too. Compare it to Notepad++ or BB Edit, it's no competition. VSCode looks out of place on any platform it runs on, is slow when compared to native editors, takes up a lot of RAM, practically useless when opening large log files, etc. People keep bringing that as a shining example, but it's bad on its own right. It's just less bad than the other Electron "software".

"The SDT began emerging in the West after World War II. As societies became richer and goods cheaper and more plentiful, people no longer had to rely on traditional families to afford basic needs like food and shelter. They could look up the Maslovian ladder toward “post-material” goods: self-fulfillment, exotic and erotic experiences, expressive work, education."

Still the same, I'm in Poland and they are not there yet :(

From the list I see that they don't have any new EU states and they don't have even Portugal.

Which is quite strange, because internet speed there on average much better (fiber is quite popular) than in the old EU.

I think the issue is lack of google servers in those countries.

Tldr: sort of.

Better answer: it depends on how charged your battery pack is at the time. New Tesla superchargers have been able to charge Model 3s up to 420 mph. That is if the charging continued at that rate for one hour, that battery pack would give you 420 miles of range.

But as you charge a battery, the rate at which you charge slows down. Think of it as stuffing a pillow, the more stuffing you have in your pillow, the harder you have to push to cram that stuffing in. In this case voltage is pushing electrical current into your battery. Recently, Tesla has been upgrading their charging stations to have higher voltage which means faster charging. In the attached article you'll see that they say in optimal conditions you'll be able to add 75 miles of range to your battery pack in 5 minutes.

To help optimize your battery, a software update 'warms up' your battery pack before you get to the charger as long as you put it in your vehicles map. I'm not sure what warming up means exactly or how heat would help but I'm sure someone else could explain that better than me.

So yeah, if you work less than 75 miles away, you could get a quick 5 min boost. But it would be advisable for long term health of your battery pack to charge it up to ~%80 each time. Again, I'm not the guy to explain why that is. So you'd want to plan ahead a bit.

If I'm imagining being in that situation where I'm late for work and I don't have enough juice to get there I would put the nearest supercharger in the navigation, fuel up for 5min, and then charge at work probably from a slow charger, and on my way home I'd stop at that supercharger again and top it off for 30min while I got a coffee or groceries (or browsed hacker news). And I'd try not to let that happen again because it could wear out that battery.

Sorry for the long reply but I hope this gives you a glimpse of the reality of EV ownership. I'm a prospective owner and have been doing some reading up on what to expect, if anyone has some input I would love to read it.

It's an uncomfortable and often painful truth for many. Climbing an insurmountable mountain, whether it is a personal failing, or desire, one will start to justify their own failings. It's the human psyche after all. But what they miss is belief, a leap, faith, the fire within themselves, etc...

Didn’t Doctor Snuggles always use to travel by automated pogo stick?
True. The issue IMHO is that the number of people who are, or are simply able to be, the master of the machine trends to very low numbers.
One, slightly off topic example, is Amazon compared to other companies I know. Amazon is doing with pretty sophisticated processes, systems and, say, 5 FTEs what others are doing with four times the number. This is not covering warehouse stuff like picking, packing, stowing and such. And the other companies are using the mist up-to-date version of SAP incl. APO. Yet, all but max. a handful of people are simply biological extensions of SAP pushing buttons because they were told to. They won't be able to function in an Amazon like environment because there is ni need for them. I only see this trend to speed up. Not sure where it will end an whether that place will be a good one so.

This is a huge problem with all the tech giants that needs to be addressed. I don't expect them to be perfect but I expect them to be open to communications on any level.

I also think Twitter is the Twitter today just because of the bots and fake accounts they have since those accounts were creating so much content and movement on the platform. I know people whose spending days by reading those fake accounts while they have no idea what's fake and what's real. So maybe -just may be- they may not want to get rid of all those fake accounts and bots.
