So do you think that the correct way to make sure buildings have enough exits is to shame construction workers into not working on buildings that they think have too few exits? Keeping in mind that an individual worker may only have knowledge of a small section of the overall building.

It makes me sad that "SEO consulting" exists as a thing. I understand the need for it, but it's always just felt so dirty. It's basically someone who is an expert at tricking a single business, and it's a constant cat and mouse game.

And Google will even tell you how to get a high ranking, which pretty much boils down to "make content that humans find compelling and Google will too". It's all the other "tricks" that might work for a while until Google gets wise and changes their algorithm and then we all start the dance over.

It was just like the spammers on reddit -- they'd come up with some new trick, we'd block it, they'd find another new trick, and so on, but all along, the stuff that got to the top was for the most part things that people found interesting. Post interesting content was always a good strategy, even if there were a trick or two that might work to boost you on any given week.

I just wish we could all just make good content and not worry about gaming the directory, but a few bad actors make that impossible for the rest of us. :(
Wow, I'm thoroughly impressed how well he nailed that. For reference, I speak Egyptian Arabic and know speakers from nearly every country represented in that video. Very neat.
> The fundamental language of a browser has always been HTML. JavaScript and CSS are great and came along in due time but before all that there was HTML.

IMHO in the sense of fundamentalism all major frameworks tried to reimplement and resemble HTML (or its dialect) and browsers on existing HTML and browsers, which eliminated divergence of platforms for developers, relieving them from dealing with variations of users’ environment, i.e. the differences of browsers and HTML implementations. It was a transfer of control from client end to server end, from users to websites, implicitly.
Seems like the infrastructure built with it requires it at a certain point.

It would be slightly less convenient, but it probably wouldn’t affect your development capabilities so badly. Pretty much any Dockerfile that works on x86 should work on ARM. Linux runs totally fine on ARM. If anything, the worse problems are with Linux desktop and games software that assume ARM == embedded and attempt to use EGL and GLES.

There are, of course, many Docker repositories that lack ARM images, and you couldn’t use the exact same build locally as in production, but I think those are not actually huge, unresolvable issues. (The latter is straight up a non-issue with a good CD pipeline.)

Windows 10 also runs on ARM platforms, with the ability to transparently emulate Intel. I’m sure this is or will be usable inside of VMs even if dual booting is not an option.

Why? Most people using Brave would never have clicked your ads anyway.
Compared to the "tens of thousands of subreddits" you mentioned in the comment I replied to, yes. A sub with 750k users will generally have more intervention than a sub with 750.

Now you're changing the subject to "any other popular subreddit" which was not in the comment I replied to and thus was obviously not what I was talking about.

To make that clear, I'm saying there's a correlation between popularity and number of interventions, but that's not the only factor. Admin bias is another factor, and I'm sure there are others I can't think of at the moment.

As for "relative toxicity", TD isn't any more toxic than other political subs on reddit. The whole place is a cesspool. Unless you fit in perfectly with the group on any political sub you'll be treated badly. But right wing subs suffer additional toxicity from the admins.
I didn't state I don't use linters. I use go fmt, go vet and golint constantly. I don't consider fmt a linter so much as an auto-formatter. I don't consider the output of go vet or golint to be warnings, more like errors -- I don't ignore them.

Even if the try proposal were to result in eventual go vet errors, then surely go fix would be able to rewrite on your behalf, so this would be a non-issue, just as go fmt is a non-issue. But I don't think this will happen any time soon.

> everything that is `return nil, err` will need a special comment to silence recommendations

I don't use linters that can be ignored with special comments. I don't recommend them. This is a problem in other languages/ecosystems, but in my experience it is not a problem in Go, where it's considered an anti-pattern. This feels like FUD to me.

> nagging social pressure to reduce linter warnings will result in skipped error handling.

Yes and no? Social pressure to reduce linter warnings is a good thing, why use a linter if you are going to ignore its output. This problem only exists if you have linter warnings.

> a licensing checker (glice)

I've never encountered this. I don't think a linter that hits the Github API is a good idea.

> a security scanner (gosec)

This looks like a pretty opinionated linter. Some example rules:

> G103: Audit the use of unsafe block

> G104: Audit errors not checked

> G201: SQL query construction using format string

> G105: Audit the use of math/big.Int.Exp

> G501: Import blacklist: crypto/md5

Are these actionable? Probably not. There are perfectly valid reasons to do all of these things. Maybe this is useful to paint a picture of a code base you're evaluating, or to flag new changes as suspect, but I don't know what purpose this would serve in CI.

Don't use linters which just create noise and non-actionable output. They're not valuable, they're a waste of energy. Make them manual, or maybe run them against new changes only with the expectation that they're informative but often ignored.

These are all personal problems. Most Go users don't have these, I suggest you choose to not have them also.
> You can't build apps without turing complete code.

Sure you can. None of these things should require me to run your arbitrary Turing-complete code in my browser:

* Reading an article

* Writing an article

* Shopping online

* Searching for things online

* Reading social media posts/comments

* Submitting social media posts/comments

* Browsing a code repo

* Submitting issues / PRs / etc. to a code repo

* Reading documentation

That (non-exhaustive) category accounts for a solid 80% of everything I do online (and the other 20% are things which I'd rather be doing through native apps). All of these things should be possible (and indeed are possible) entirely with HTML (and optionally CSS) + a server somewhere handling the backend logic. If they're not, then your "app" is over-engineered, or it is indeed better off as something I explicitly download and install, which brings me to...

> We would be back to downloading and executing applications/programs.

Good. That's the direction the mobile world has already been going for a decade now. Native apps actually integrate with the platform. Web pages don't (or at least don't do so well). At least in that situation I'm explicitly "downloading and executing those applications/programs" by my own choice.

We even have things like WebAssembly now, with experiments and effort toward making it usable as a general-purpose compilation target/runtime outside a web browser. No reason why it'd take more than a decade for someone to figure out how to wire a WebAssembly module into some sort of Qt-based (or whatever) runtime + UI and get the best of both worlds.

For example, I kept seeing Starcraft 2 replays on the homepage after watching the AI vs human tournament which kept helping me procrastinate. I don't even play the game nor subscribe to a single SC2 channel.

I'm trying to learn Egyptian Arabic and the resources available are incredibly frustrating. It's a very popular language yet nearly all the beginner resources are for Modern Standard Arabic.

People won't touch the restroom door handle, but they'll touch every other surface in the facility without a second thought. Walking through a bathroom door doesn't magically make hands clean. The good news is if you have a healthy immune system you can touch anything, including the bathroom door handle and you'll be fine.
The industry is pretty homogeneous and somewhat of a revolving door between the few OEMs. What are the odds that the code on this plane is orders of magnitude worse (in terms of code quality) than every other similar bit of code in the sky?

Edit. I should have to say this but I'm not defending Boeing here. I'm saying it's not at al unforeseeable that the other planes, even ones by other manufacturers are just as bad. Clearly they thought nothing was abnormal about this one until it started falling out of the sky. I see this kind of like diesel-gate. If one of them is cheating they're probably all cheating.
On the flip side, all airplanes have flaws to some degree or else they would never crash. A deep audit of everything in the end should make things safer. And Boeing also has a solid safety record on their other models 777 and 767
> I'm concerned that I'd see less relevant content

I used to have that concern as well, but then I realised I didn't actually get that much value from yt recommendations. The stuff I want to see comes from channels I'm subscribed to and only very rarely have I discovered something good from recommendations - most of the discovery comes from the right-hand side video column.
How to Replace React Components with PureScript's React Libraries
Sorry, I said that poorly. I mean that the problem `try` is fixing is that all the `if err != nil ..` clutters up the code and they are introducing `try` to clean that up.
They won’t mandate a specific browser, but they can regulate functionality.

Piracy is already considered theft. Viewing webpages without ads is basically “stealing” web content. I would not be surprised in the slightest if some big advertiser runs with this idea and lobbies for strict legislation. And they likely would succeed, quite honestly. Congress doesn’t understand adblocking or the internet, but they have a vague idea of digital piracy.
Boeing doesn’t make engines, GE does
They got a ton of attention when they first launched for their idea of replacing ads. See point two on this archive from early 2017: https://web.archive.org/web/20170129165028/https://www.brave... Now they have a disclaimer at the top https://www.brave.com/about_ad_replacement.html but honestly, until today I thought they were still doing it.
Fond (YC W12) Is Hiring Senior Software Engineer in Portland
If they care about both a fast development cycle and rapid adoption then spending time getting an official package for Debian/etc. makes no sense.

> It doesn't imply anything serious, just that it can be built from source and that it passed the distro's basic diligence and guidelines.

For a modern web browser it probably doesn't achieve the latter. Both Chromium and Firefox are too complex for Debian's meager backporting resources. So they make an exception to their guidelines and ship the LTS release. I suppose the userbase just hopes that bad things don't if the browser LTS upgrade happens before the OS's LTS upgrade is ready.
Hans Wehr's dictionary is awesome. How did you get permission to use it online?
That's an unfair comparison. A three line snippet is hardly the same thing as taking an entire page. Not to mention that all search engines do this.

It's not possible to actually become a licensed/professional software engineer as of April this year, at least in Florida. Florida requires that you pass the NCEES PE exam - not sure if there are other exam vendors used elsewhere in the US - and NCEES elected to stop offering the software engineer exam citing low demand:

https://ncees.org/ncees-discontinuing-pe-software-engineerin...

It was only ever administered 6 times.

I've spent all of 30 minutes studying this, so, hardly an expert. But it seems like the genesis and ongoing purpose of P.E. accreditation is to protect the health and safety of the public. There have certainly been some high profile examples of poor software engineering affecting health and safety - thinking about the Toyota acceleration issue and the VW emissions scandal - but I am wondering if people really think an accreditation body would prevent this sort of thing from happening. What would a Professional Software Engineer be, and why would they be inherently better or more qualified than what we have today?
As others have explained, it's arguable that banks cannot do this. Though I am curious if there some way to outlaw cryptocurrency, possible go as far as impose sanctions to other countries.

Also, would like to note that Bitcoin can also function as store of value just like Gold.

While I can understanding wanting to not watch such videos because how the events are covered in such videos. Mainly to gawk at grevious injuries/incidents.

I do not like the idea filtering reality. A video could instead be if you do stupid thing X this happens. Then again it also depends on the age and maturity of the kid/teen. You dont want to terrify them or scare them wanting to try or learn new things. However learning from others mistakes is better than finding out first hand yourself. Like I said most videos on youtube are not an analysis of mistakes that lead up to an event.

Then you just have unfortunate accidents/events which don’t really tell you more than sometimes life can be brutal.

Although, I think youtube filters violent stuff unless your account says your over 18, and removes really disturbing stuff outright.

Then again automated filters are not perfect.
If most people have a certain pronunciation, that’s just how it’s pronounced now.
I think if you talk to anybody who has been involved in an event covered by the media, you will find stories about how wrong they got it. Sometimes it will be facts that are reported incorrectly, others it will be bias introduced to push a particular agenda. In a lot of cases simple editing can frame a sound bite in such a way as to bend the story.

I was on a military deployment overseas many years ago, and it was entertaining to see how events were reported back home. It was vary rare for any report to gain more than a parsing resemblance to what actually happened. In a lot of cases many separate events were confounded into a single report and in all cases the subtleties of the event were completely lost.

The result is that as you say you cannot take any reporting to be the actual facts of the situation. If you are interested in an event your only recourse is to investigate the event yourself. Talk to participants and observers and even then you have to examine their and your own biases to ensure that is taken into account when drawing your conclusions.

Facts are for Mathematics, and even then, that is an opinion.

Engine Alliance (GE and Pratt & Witney) and Rolls Royce are the 2 players.

Because engines are purchased separately from the aircraft, the buyers and engine manufacturers must be in a bind, since the buyer needs to pay for the engines for Boeing to fit them, whether the plane enters service or not.

Most linux desktops work fine on ARM chips FYI. GPUs in the ARM world are usually just for OpenGL used by video games.

Video decoding/encoding is handled by a VPU (not GPU), HDMI is handled by a separate HDMI PHY, and most of these components have mainline, libre kernel support if you use an Allwinner based single board computer.

Microsoft has started branding some Mali GPUs as DirectX 11 capable, though YMMV on using these features.

High technology jobs that you can only get if you went to college and got a technical degree. Which is disproportionately available to families who are already wealthy.

Aircraft don't have to have flaws to crash, unless you count the human pilots, air traffic controllers, maintenance crews etc. as flaws.

You could have a perfect aircraft with no flaws, and a human could still manage to crash it. See the Germanwings flight for a good example.
So someone named Amy Sippet who works at a charity called Full Fact decided it's mostly a myth, not after conducting studies or independent research but after reading just 7 previous studies on the backfire effect and noting that some studies didn't seem to her to support it and that most of the studies she read were conducted in the US. The article links to and quotes from her twitter account.

This major breakthrough in the social sciences shares space in the very same article with an observation about how you can use Instagram to find "the internet’s darkest corners.” and some random stuff about Apple.

Maybe it's just the backfire effect here, but I'm not really convinced.
Any good documentation on using go modules day to day?

> WORA is inevitable

Indeed it is. It is not, however, dependent on running arbitrary Turing-complete code in my browser automatically and without my permission. Write-once-run-anywhere is perfectly possible and feasible under the traditional "download and install this program and run it" model.

I'm optimistic about WebAssembly (on that note) because of its usefulness beyond the browser; like I described in a different comment, it's only a matter of time before we start seeing GUI-enabled WASM runtimes that allow WASM-modules-as-programs to work as desktop or mobile apps indistinguishable from their native (or kinda-native, in the case of Android) counterparts.
Sure, but many games and applications are hardcoded to use EGL and GLES (which is not always available for desktop ARM.) For example, I believe Qt4 makes the assumption that ARM = GLES.
There have been studies that showed some results when testing microwave (transmission) radiation on animal models but they have not showed anything close to a smoking gun. These results may be statistically significant (Which is not the 5 sigma used in HEP, but still), but no study I have seen attempts to contextualize any potential risk i.e. There is a reason why 5G is in the same WHO cancer risk band as working as a carpenter

Imagine the same but with the radium: The Animals would have obviously got cancer or Aplastic Anemia (Or more acute symptoms of radiation sickness). If there was clear evidence that 5G caused illness in humans, it wouldn't be happening
