Not to mention the evidence of the US government lying about the numbers of civilian casualties (read: murders), or the many examples of money laundering, and tit-for-tat deals. The idea that nothing was gained from the Afghan/Iraqi war logs alone is beyond ridiculous. Let alone the mountains of other leaks they published before and since.

There has been a TON of research into cancer. Pretty much every big Pharma company spends a lot of money on it and if you look where VC money is going for start-ups, over half is in the oncology space.

If anything, some question if that should be dialed back and spent in other disease areas.

It wasn't doing well but it wasn't close to collapse. Russia opened up (economically and politically) because that's what Gorbachev wanted.

He could easily not have done it and the USSR would likely still be around.

It took a deep dive after the USSR split.

I don't know about CAD, but this is not how many applications that save to multiple formats work - including image editors, as i point out in another reply of mine here where i list image editors that put the supported formats in their Save dialog instead of Export (some do not even have such a thing).

GIMP's workflow and what you describe assume you work primarily with XCF files but this is not always (or even often, for many people) the case when working with images as nothing else supports XCF files. Personally i rarely work with XCF files and only do that if i want to save images with multiple layers, otherwise i prefer to save in PNG files as those files will be editable in pretty much everything out there. For that sort of workflow GIMP's insistence on separating Save and Export is annoying, especially when i want to create a new image and GIMP complains that i didn't save it (but i did, i just saved it as a PNG file instead of the XFC GIMP wants me to use - that i have no real use for).

> > Retries won't help you when the data was corrupted on its way to be stored.

> Why not?

1. Data is fine in memory

2. Data is fine over PCIe.

3. Data is corrupted by firmware bug in storage controller.

4. Data (now corrupted) is sent to disk, which generates checksums for each LBA, and sends the bits to the storage medium.

5. Some time later the data is requested, disk reads bits from sectors, checksums pass, corrupted data is sent back up the stack to the application.

This is not a fantasy scenario:

You always want what you didn't have, and no one is perfect, but I do think that you make people (not just kids!) around you better and stronger when you model goodness and strength.

I'm not in favor of being a bad person to teach people how to deal with bad people. Chances are, despite your best efforts, you'll do plenty of bad stuff anyway.

Where logic and emotion come into this is anyone's guess, but showing some affection is a good idea in a household, as is showing how to deal with negative feelings.
I read the article you linked. It's too bad they didn't decide to pass a fat pointer with the array dimensions.

But when the article implies that null terminated strings and the problems associated with them are caused by arrays decaying to pointers, I get more skeptical.

I mean it's not as if arrays in C are bounds checked anyway, so how would that have helped implement strings any better?

I guess you could have bounds checked them in the stdlib code, but you certainly wouldn't have gotten it for free just by knowing the array dimensions.

It's somewhere in between for me, as someone who drinks coffee from a coffee shop almost every day. I crave a good cup of coffee often but when I get it I often just start drinking it and when it's gone I realize I forgot to savor the experience, or I do try to savor the experience but realize the work I did or the article I read or the thoughts I had while drinking it were disappointing. When things align I do still enjoy my coffee very much though. Probably a couple times a week.

If you see a bridge or a building with cracks and signs of structural weakness, be sure not to tell anyone, you might start a panic. Instead directly contact the engineering firm and give them at least 90 days to rectify the issue before telling the public.

If you experience a defect in your automobile that causes your steering to cut out intermittently do not alert other users of the same make and model. Instead contact the manufacturer and give them 90 days to fix the issue internally and mail you a new part.

If a drug you are taking causes a serious reaction quietly contact the maker of the drug directly...

See how incredibly stupid "reasonable disclosure" sounds in other industries?
It is different because in China I doubt there would have been any investigative reporting about the government and AT&T.

And while AT&T doesn’t seem to have done this, other companies such as Apple have enacted privacy measures which directly contravene the stated wishes of the government - but which are legal.

In China, I believe the way it works is, whatever the government wants becomes legal. The US is far from perfect but the rule of law exists here to some degree.

Yep, I can do what you suggest, and I've done it before. It can go a little sideways, though, depending on the questions you ask. If your question requires me to do what I can't do in an interview setting, then neither you nor I will be happy with the result.

Don't get me wrong; you as an interviewer are not under any obligation to adapt your hiring process to my quirks.

On the other hand, I'm not under any obligation to participate in a hiring process I don't like, either. I stopped participating in hiring processes I don't like around two decades ago, and I've survived anyway.

In their defense, they never claimed a diagnosed condition, only subjective discomfort. And when you live to eat chips on the couch playing games, movement DOES feel crap and good food DOES feel crap and it takes a long while to retrain your body for the new endorphins instead of the old ones.

Decision to keep nuclear weapons data classified hurts US national security
China doesn't actually have a lot of police. It looks like it does but a lot of them are teenagers doing there year of service with no real power or authority.

Enforcement of basically all laws is done using some rotation system. This month it will be X, next month it will be Y. One of the interesting things is that they don't keep it a secret. It isn't published in newspapers but every Chinese person seems to know what the police are targeting now and next month. It gives everyone time to clean up their act before they get in trouble. The enforcement can never be 100%

If people complain enough then it will be resolved quickly. The shops around tourist areas should be fixed quickly because it looks bad.
The West contributed more than you think.

The famines in the USSR were partially caused by US trade embargoes on the USSR preventing them from buying modern farming equipment and grain supplies.

That's not to say the USSR itself bore no blame. They definitely did, but the US did everything it could to ensure that system would collapse.
It's basically the keynesian hole digging problem. The real solution to the problem is not politically acceptable. Therefore we have to do mental gymnastics to make it palatable to the public. The end result is a completely inadequate solution that doesn't solve the problem sufficiently but is good enough to make people become indifferent to the problem.
Here's an interesting article, some quotes

So if the A-10 was never going to be around in enough numbers, what could be done? Only one group had enough distance from the Air Force and enough independent money to consider a viable alternative: buying a cheap, lightweight attack plane on their own. That was the Navy SEALs. A group of them met with the Secretary of the Navy in 2006 to tell him about the problems they faced with getting good enough air support.

Like other American combat troops in Afghanistan, the SEALs sometimes found that high-tech gear couldn't reliably get the job done, or that cheaper, lower-tech solutions worked better. This is how the US military almost adopted the A-29 Super Tucano, a $4 million turboprop airplane reminiscent of WWII-era designs that troops wanted, commanders said was "urgently needed," but Congress refused to buy.

I know Japanese cars tend to be smaller than the monstrosities common in the US, but even a small car will weigh >1000lbs. That's enough kinetic energy that even someone in another car is at risk, whereas anyone in a car is nearly invulnerable to a consumer drone. I definitely don't want to be struck by a drone, but given the choice between a car accident and drone accident, I'll take the drone any day.

Google search can only tell you how popular something is to search and how much content there is about it. They aren't going to be showing you a website just because there's a src="cdn.example.com" in the code, only if it's in the text.

To actually know then you either need them to report their # of users and trust them, or scrape tons of websites and check their source for which CDN they use.

Outside of military aircraft drone related deaths are extremely rare. Skulls can survive fairly heavy impacts relative to most drones. Randomly falling drones are also unlikely to hit someone outside the most densely packed crowds.

So, while drunk droning may be a safety hazard, it’s vastly less risky than drunk driving.

I'm reminded of the Florentine Camerata[1] here. They were a group of intellectuals that met at Giovanni de' Bardi's house during the second half of the 1500s, and their discussions of music (amongst other things) led to the development of opera.

According to an army grunt friend of mine, there's a truism in his profession which goes "Friendly fire... ISN'T!"

Joking aside, I would assume current IFF systems let you define anything not explicitly friendly as hostile - what with shifting alliances, armament development consolidation &c - the issue being how many backdoors there are. I take it as a given no US-made missile can kill a US-operated aircraft, regardless of what the operator of the missile desires. (Same goes for French, British, Russian &c)
> FS-level checksum saves you from the situation when the underlying storage thinks everything is okay but it is not:

It doesn't save you from anything, it just turns bit flips into full blocks of data loss and introduces overhead. If your application can deal with data loss it can deal with bit flips too. Filesystem-level checksumming is still useless.

I wonder how much of this correlation is from the publishers as opposed to interaction between writers who would wind up comparable in present day status.

Breaking it down further it brings to mind mapping with more data than we probably have. Like say if they found "muse correlations" with everyone - mapping productivity and interactions. Like say being in the Shelley's social circle was associated with a 5.0 but the one copy writer of no historical note has a 4.5. Of course if someone was prolific enough they might cause anyone who interacts with them to have a high number as a sheer mathematical side effect.

Flexport is hiring software engineers for our humanitarian relief logistics team
So, a journalist could publish the design documents for the F-35? The newest hydrogen bomb? Information on how we are spying on the North Koreans? Proof that military intelligence isn’t always 100% correct and has bombed groups incorrectly? Proof that we are spying on suspected terrorists who have recently been granted US citizenship? I believe there is a line somewhere in the above scenarios, and journalists are responsible for determining where that line exists. Assange appears to have a different interpretation of where that line is from the US government officials.

What bothers me, are dialogs and windows not written in html and css (not sure what it is, maybe XUL?). Chrome basically eats it own dog food = everything is html. Firefox still has settings done in non html way. It may sound marginal problem to you, but IMO browser should be showcase for html and html should be used everywhere. Also amount of popup dialogs/windows should be reduced. Again settings, about, ... should be html page, instead of popup window, which cannot be until it's rewritten as html page (so it's related to my first point).

FYI: I use Firefox for idealogical reasons.

The Fat Duck is still open, has three Michelin stars and is booked out months in advance. Possibly not the best example of a reputation being destroyed or a business being killed.
The way you describe a timeout makes sense. There can only be a meaningful interaction among both parties when emotions are under control. I also tell my kid to take a minute off and calm down first if necessary.

There was a german parenting TV show a few years ago where the host repeatedly made children of various parents sit somewhere alone until they cooled off. This is the first thing I thought of when cooldown was mentioned. It's somehow easier to be consistent that way: Yelling, hitting, swearing, whatever. The child will know what will happen next and hopefully avoid it.

But cooldown alone stops making sense, when it is used for everything. I think it's better to respond with a consequential task which makes sense according to the cause. Even though it is harder to find and follow through sometimes.
