If only distributed signatures included trust levels -- then you could at least attempt something like that. Though unfortunately trust levels are themselves incredibly coarse and subjectively determined (does "I trust fully" mean "I checked 6 forms of government ID" or "I know this person by their handle"?).

To be honest, I think Keybase has the only workable solution to this problem for modern online personalities -- tie it to directly to your other identities online such that you would need to break into many accounts in order to fake someone's identity. And individual users can decide for themselves what threshold of trust they have for someone.

Then it's a case of convergent evolution then, because coroutines were even a part of Modula-2, and the type of class / interface approach that Go sports looks very much like Oberon's.

"Wikipedia says they are also looking to create an Africa currency."

And huge railways. And African Passports. A lot of this is sweet talk. Africa is a very corrupt and tribal continent. I wish them luck.

PS: Why the downvote? Looks up the corruption index, see where the African countries are. They are tribal societies, always thinking in "tribal" ways.

I am also not a big fan of illegal immigration from this countries to Europe. I don't care what skin color, sex, ethnic background or whatever someone skilled has who comes to Europe or the US and believes in the open society. Most people coming from these non integrating gap countries want a better life but do not believe in an open society.

I don't know much I trust GN anymore. Used to be the first site I'd read reviews from, now I actively avoid it. Steve just seems to want to draw attention for the most minor things (be it against Intel or AMD). He's the boy that always cries wolf, so I really don't trust his objectiveness anymore.
>When you drive on public roads, you have no reasonable expectation of privacy.

False. Until the observer effect occurs, I - essentially - do not exist but as a record in a database. Someone who knows me, my car, or has the ability to ascertain who I am from identifiers on the vehicle, is able to collapse that sense of privacy but, until that happens, I am just one of the many of the nameless mass. In that, I have privacy and you would be hard-pressed to prove otherwise.

>Tinted windows which obscure the driver’s face are, to the best of my knowledge, illegal in most of the U.S.

False. Tinted windows which obscure the driver's view is illegal. It's perfectly legal for you to have a high iridescent finish on the outside of your tint, which will obstruct the outside view of the driver (in sunlight).

>...or using them in an otherwise illegal manner.

When - in the history of ever - has law enforcement never abused the resources afforded to them? Your credulous, at best, belief in law enforcement's use of the system largely ignores the prevailing example given in the article - which was that they used the system on someone who was under "suspicious circumstance". The "suspicious circumstance" bar is so low that even a two-dimensional being couldn't limbo under it.

Some might argue that since the agreements were made that the three-lettered agencies would only use them for criminal investigations, that the example of the "suspicious circumstance" that was given just now is in fact illegal.

That's ironic, given that last I heard anything about Hurd, it was that partition size was constrained by bus width (i.e., it couldn't access disks larger than 2 GiB on most computers at the time), but since everyone was moving to 64-bit architectures soon enough, that wouldn't be an issue. (Not sure where I heard that particular excuse, but the explanation why is here: [1])

32-bit userland makes Hurd basically unusable for many server applications, where multi-gigabyte in-memory lookup tables are critical for performance.

Would a microframework (no idea what's the equivalent of Flask or Sinatra is on PHP) help?

I have no idea. Maybe. I've just been coding straight PHP. With the way IDEs are these days, once your environment is set up the way you like and you have your favorite macros bound, it's not a problem.

I'll look into Flask and Sinatra before I start the next site. Any other ones you recommend?
That sounds a bit naturalist fallacy - just because it is selected for doesn't mean it is ideal. Legacy is perfectly capable of leaving maladaption. The inertia can and has worked against them too.

For instance it could have been from the history of human group hunting, warfare that sort of cohesion served better than intellectual ability in the short term.

But under modern conditions the utility would invert - muscle power is basically worthless compared to machines for labor for one. Not falling for the stupid delusions of the day can give a lead of centuries.

Besides shouldn't proper deep thinkers should be able to weigh risks of ideologies? The unthinking masses would continue along with disaster while critical thinkere would say "stop!".
> It's only because of Wayland's design that "GPU manufacturer creates nonstandard interface to their driver" is some giant, existential, ecosystem-fragmenting threat to the open-source community.

That's not how I think of it. By analogy, consider POSIX. Every major operating system supports the POSIX interface--all of them, except one that is. But no one goes around calling that one OS a "giant, existential, ecosystem-fragmenting threat to the open-source community."

Essentially, you have to pick a point somewhere in the stack where you define the common interface between the different hardware vendors. The problem is that one hardware vendor, because it's the 800 lb. gorilla who loves throwing its weight around, decided to not implement the common interface, hoping that its weight will force everyone else to adapt. Wayland is unfortunate enough to be in a position where it relies on that common interface being supported, but this isn't the only place that NVidia has decided to try to scuttle cross-vendor compatibility (GPGPU computing is a very notorious case).

As far as I've been able to figure out it's the only way to create albums in the photo gallery. Bizarre, and I have to think I'm wrong, but I haven't been able to find anything to contradict it.
As far as I know, the problem here is police running photos that it has from some cameras against the DMV database. Which is a) apparently of dubious legality because it's a biometric search and should be done in a criminal case but is instead done promiscuously left and right; and b) is ethically dubious because it creeps into the territory of ubiquitous surveillance.

Vehicles and roads don't enter the equation apart from people having gotten driver licenses. The licenses just make the largest database of US citizens' faces.
I don't think US/EU has anywhere near the influence in Africa as China. They seem to be playing by entirely different rules - specifically their brand of money up front with cost later is hugely alluring to poor African states

Approved drugs are listed here: https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/daf/

Also: https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/ob/index.cfm

And: https://www.drugs.com/history/

Physicians can only prescribe FDA-approved drugs. Only brand drugs are approved on their own. Generic drugs are approved, with much less documentation required. There's no need to demonstrate effectiveness, safety, etc. Applicants must only demonstrate that products are therapeutically equivalent to approved brand drugs. That's mainly about chemical identity, purity, and rate and degree of absorption.

At Drugs@FDA, search for a brand name. If there are generics, you'll see "Therapeutic Equivalents for NDA ...". Clicking that will display links to them.

If there's no listed brand drug, there's nothing for a generic to be equivalent to.

>Because DoH is meant to work on the application level, not OS level.

And thus, we arrive at the crux of the issue, as stated in my original post. It is not the job of everyday applications to be making decisions about name resolution.

>In fact, if Mozilla's application based resolver started mucking with /etc/hosts

Mozilla's application doesn't even need to know about /etc/hosts. It needs to ask the system name resolution interface to resolve a name for it, and then run with what it is given, rather than Mozilla deciding that their baby is too important to use that interface and then proceed to implement one on their own.

Once you've reached 3NF, stop there. Sometimes targeted denormalization can allow better performance.
What I’d say though is that in an ecosystem like Java, it’s not necessarily “reinventing the wheel”. It’s more that you can import Spring, Guava, and Apache Commons and you have a collection of 1000s of wheels of different shapes and sizes ready to go when you need them.

Whereas in some other ecosystems, you have to go get each wheel individually from a different person. There are certainly reasons why each ecosystem evolved the way it did, but I don’t think it’s impossible that this sort of stuff could centralize more in the future, especially as it becomes more clear what should be “batteries included” or what things are actually needed and used by the community.
I'm pretty sure by that whole 2063 thing, China will pretty much imply the AU. I'm fair certain China figures prominently in the AU's strategy for getting to 2063. In truth, so does the EU. It's just that China is thought to be the less risky long term partner.

No. I pay other people to do chores. That's why I make money. As for groceries I don't consider this part of "chores". I usually do groceries with my kids, whenever my wife will let me do it, since every time we just fool around and buy a lot of unnecessary stuff just for the fun - which my wife hates it. Like I said, enjoying life with my family.

Personally I'm not really very happy with that graph since it combines energy inputs into black boxes instead of groupings. Take natural gas, solar, wind, nuclear, and hydro and combine those into an electric power generation' 'fruit basket.' It makes you think you know something, but at the same time makes sure you don't know enough.

It's unfortunate that your description already feels like it has more of an impact on my life than most details in the sekki descriptions, with or without climate change.

It's one line feeding 4-6 self-serve registers instead of one line feeding one register. I think most people would prefer shorter time in checkout vs. having someone else scan their goods for them.

Frameworks aren't the design choice that favours stability. You take the inversion of control to get all the convention/plug-and-play/just-works features that come with it. Those are focused on developer productivity, which is a constantly shifting goal.

Avoid that design and using a "libraries over frameworks" approach solves this problem but has other tradeoffs obviously, although a good ecosystem of libraries that have designed for interop solves most of them. These library ecosystems aren't the norm though, and the lure of "I'm going to package these together in a framework, that does things the way I like, and then brand it and help my career" for the library devs is always there (see Flask in Python for example, it was the "unDjango" until it got popular and now it's just another framework)

Ghadaffi wanted to create an African currency as well [0]. I wonder if the African countries will now succeed. I feel it will definitely be in their interest as it seems currently France has control over African monetary policy [1] which (I feel) could still be considered some form of colonialism.

> now that globalism is dead

Its very much alive. Except in case of actual WW3 (in which case all bets are off), globalism and the integration of the global economy is proceeding at an unprecedented pace. There is a reason why tariffs are only temporary and there is no legislation to enshrine them into law.

The biggest economic winners in the past 70 years or so have been economies which have integrated their supply chains with the global one in some way or the other. Its the golden goose that keeps giving (although what the countries end up doing with that wealth, whether they distribute it well, is another question).

The goal of the AU is to build better efficiencies within the African continent to the benefit of African economies. This may e.g. make African manufactured goods more competitive than the ones imported from abroad. It allows for easier building of supply chains within the continent itself.

As the article points out though, the main roadblocks are

> Poor roads and railway lines, violence-hit areas, strict border controls and rampant corruption are some of the obstacles to an effective continental free-trade zone.

These are all very serious (but not insurmountable) problems. The best outcome I can imagine is that as the AU supply chains are built and bring economic efficiencies, they can tap into the global supply chain to really supercharge them, make other AU countries realize free trade makes economic sense and encourage it. But I am being wayy too optimistic, seeing the history of the continent...

Consider for e.g. the ancient silk roads. The owners of the territory over which the trade route ran realized its economic importance and invested a lot in making it a conflict-free and protected zone.

Flask would be my personal preference but I have a Python background (you mentioned PHP so I assumed that was your main language).

Sinatra is in Ruby. The "hello world" looked very similar to Flask but I haven't explored it deeper so no idea.

For PHP maybe also check out Phalcon ? It's not as "light" as the aforementioned ones but maybe they're more conservative in terms of breaking changes?

ACL/MCL injuries, and knee/shoulder/elbow injuries in general, are a subject where medical understanding is evolving and a lot of what used to pass as standard care and generally accepted practice is not standing up to more rigorous evidence-based studies. So I'm glad these are being done, but remain very skeptical at this point.

My wife tore her ACL this winter so I had to read up / talk to folks about the current state of care and my conclusion is as I said above: you can improve the support of the joint muscularly, for certain.

In fact everyone involved in high-strain activities should probably be screened for joint muscle strength before they get injured - including folks like military recruits, who have an abysmal knee injury rate that they then suffer from for the rest of their lives.

Anything beyond muscle support improvement is an open question at the very least, as far as my recent dive informed me.

Where are you getting "curb stomped" from?

From the conclusion:

"When it comes to gaming performance, the 9700K and 9900K remain the best performing CPUs on the market"

"Ultimately, while AMD still lags behind Intel in gaming performance, the gap has narrowed immensely, to the point that Ryzen CPUs are no longer something to be dismissed if you want to have a high-end gaming machine. Intel's performance advantage is rather limited here – and for the power-conscientious, AMD is delivering better efficiency at this point – so while they may not always win out as the very best choice for absolute peak gaming performance, the 3rd gen Ryzens are still very much a very viable option worth considering."

This isnt to take anything away from AMD and people will finally consider them now as a serious alternative, but I would not call this a "curb stomping"

A curb stomp would be Intel vs pre-Ryzen AMD
I've switched to waterfox when firefox broke my extensions with their API, particular VimFx.

The vim extensions for firefox don't really work for me - I've not been able to navigate in pdfs and firefox own dialogs at all and the worst thing is that switching to a tab like that and you're stuck.

Even having 1 pdf open next to a couple of html tabs breaks the flow as soon as you change to the pdf tab you're stuck, no more gt or gT for you.

Your comment gave me hope and I tried tridactyl, but they still have the same issues. Sidenote: they actually have a hack in place that works around that problem when you spawn a new tab - it just loads a website so that the extension at least works.

AFAIK this is because of Mozillas design so there is no way this can be fixed by an extension, it has to be a fork. Or do you have a workaround for those problems?

I am big fan of mozilla's mdn but they broke my setup with the firefox api changes and the second time (with the expired extension cert) I was glad I had an alternative.

Take care,

This will all change when loan repayments are due and China insists on no-forgiveness and asks for more control of the actual infrastructure, and ultimately ownership. That kind of thing is frowned upon by Western governments because it is eerily similar to the colonialism playbook but China is unfettered by that past and can thus move ahead. Also, China is a totalitarian state so even if the State committed atrocities abroad there would be little to no domestic repercussions anyways.
