You don't sell the subject matter. You sell the emotions it expects to generate in the reader. You put the ads designed to be attractive to the person feeling anxious or outraged or amused next to the article that is expected to engender anxiety, outrage or laughs. Fear and anxiety are great ways to shift crappy products. Pepper spray, tasers, alarm systems, funeral planning services would all benefit from your murder story obviously. Financial products for your oil tanker less obviously (specter of war creates worry about finance and movement of capital to 'safe' investments like gold)

So they're the same in that they're different?
Protecting civil liberties generally means defending unsympathetic characters. They always are chosen first, and they must be defended before the precedent is set. By the time encroachers move on to sympathetic characters, it's too late. The encroachment has been normalized, it is in fact normal, and the liberty was lost already.

That's not my original thought, but I can't find the original quote. I think it's from the ACLU, from some occasion when Jewish lawyers were defending free speech of neonazis or something.
Right, but that's like saying "without women we wouldn't have women entering the workforce". Technically true, but not an argument against it.
A major problem in American cities is what's called "contraception zoning." It's a de facto and sometimes de jure ban on large (as in 4 or more bedroom) apartments.
There was a prior request to actually have a scoped CSS tag in the HTML+CSS standard[1], why aren't we seeing a stronger advocation for it if that's all people are looking for? I'm a small fish but I certainly would love to see this HTML spec be revived.

What makes that really interesting is that the Marines are strapping land vehicles onto ships to add capability. This is such a hack. Want another weapon or sensor for the ship? Add an entire truck that has it, including the wheels and engine and everything else. Somebody gets to sit in the truck.
Yeah, it was this really. The author had largely abandoned the project, someone emailed him asking for it (who had no github presence whatsoever), and the author obliged.

Here, there's in theory the effort that the people being given the project have been more vetted and have to have some amount of github presence to get a repo.
That's more just SF though
History contradicts you. There are examples from communist block where technological solutions that bypassed government restrictions helped to spread banned information.

The problem is that we live in a highly materialistic and consumerist society. Indeed, the paradox where poor families have more children than those with means like middle and upper middle class families is unique to consumerist societies. The reason should be clear. Having the extra income relative to the poor, many prioritize spending what they've made on goods and services that contribute to their comfort, pleasure, and "status" (keeping up with the Jones') over children who often require sacrificing comfort and pleasure. Having children is no longer seen as a demanding privilege, but a pointless burden.

Now, nothing is wrong with material goods as such. Nothing is wrong with sacrificing having children for the sake of a higher goal (as a Catholic, you already understand that to be something people can do, e.g., the priesthood or the religious life). But a society that has traded the privilege of raising a new generation in not for superior goods but for inferior goods, for the sake of empty self-indulgence, surely smacks of malaise and decadence. Is it any wonder why so many of us are depressed when we celebrate a perverted form of individualism that is ultimately self-destructive? We have a nature and this recent fad that denies human nature or perverts it will not produce happiness.
There is probably choice from an end-user's point of view, yes. On that front you are arguing about best search results.

But as site owner, you need traffic. SEO for some search engine built by your brother, used exclusively by your family, wont help you grow your business. You need eyeballs, and more than 90% of those are on google [0]. Pretending this is a perfectly functioning market and websites can just ignore google is... unrealistic.

Can you elaborate? How are pointers to floats problematic? Or is it something else?
Not commenting on any other part of your post, but, replacement fertility rate is roughly 2.1 children per woman.

In other words, to sustain a population at its current level, most women need to have two babies, and some need to have three.

I currently am raising two kids in the suburbs and the only reason we are not in the city is that rents are too expensive for a reasonable sized house/apartment.
Every web app I've used extensively had bugs. A few of those 3000 devs could focus on improving the existing functionality, rather than changing the color and location of various bells and whistles.
Conservative GCs don't know which bytes in memory are actually pointers, so they treat every word in memory as being a pointer if it looks like one. This means if you have some other value that happens to look like a pointer — in this case a float — the GC will think it's pointing to some other memory and keep that memory around even though it isn't used.

I've lived in several cities including Boston and DC (and the urban cities that surround them both). It sounds like every wealthy city I've ever lived in or been to and sounds nothing like the 2nd tier cities that I've been to and now live in.

When a city is wealthy it gets like the top level comment described. I don't know what it is but it's related to money. You can see this by comparing the wealther boroughs of NYC to the poorer ones or comparing the wealthier suburbs of Boston to the poorer ones. The poorer ones are more "alive" for lack of a better term.

The car stuff really doesn't bother me. It's just a function of the dominant means of transit when that city was built out.
is it feasible to create loose templates for where the data is and extract that way? i have a mothballed project that did pretty well. it was able to discern different templates from a mass of documents.
Misleading title... as the author admits that "The video is actually totally benign."

The reactions have everything to do with the current political situation, and nothing to do with the advertisement.

Huawei could have created an ad stating that they cured cancer and the technology is exclusively accessible to Canadians for a period of 3 years, and they would still get flak.
What's the best type of house in the US?
That. Oracle lost my companies business because of chickenshit like the parent post.
People who can afford their home will not like watching their property values and quality of life decline because a neighbor “rented” its back yard.

Taking the Uber approach - ignoring laws - won’t work here, so this business is entirely at the mercy of permit laws. I find it astounding that some ideas get prominent backing.

Furthermore, home owners will discover that having people travel alongside their homes to reach the rented studios will be unpleasant and unsafe.

Will the tenant be allowed to come and go at any hour? Will the home owner know that the person creeping alongside their bedroom window at night is the tenant rather than a burglar?

Will the tenant be allowed to park in the homeowner’s driveway, or will they line the front curbs of the house with their car and any visitors’ cars?
This was really neat, but I wish the author went into similar detail for the auto white balance step.
If the premise is that being a nice, team-oriented person and being a good programmer are not mutually exclusive, then of course I agree. And "Zuck was successful because he's an asshole" is something that seems like an obvious fallacy but the more I thought about it, the more I realized it isn't really. "Zuck was successful solely because he's an asshole" would be.

A distinction should be drawn between a "good programmer" and "person good at startups and greenfield projects". I would maintain that the latter requires a certain amount of assholery.

Really good products are not made by committee, at least not in the beginning stages. Committees and large groups of people also tend to slow things down, a lot. You have to be willing to be opinionated and self-assured to maintain a cohesive vision of where you want to go, and that necessarily means pissing people off. Steve Jobs, Linus Torvalds, and possibly Elon Musk are other examples.

So while 10xers in terms of pure programming skill will not be enriched in assholes, the famous ones will generally be, because they got in on the ground floor. The ground floor is where it helps to be an asshole. Most of us here are not dealing with such situations though, so I would agree to the extent that for 99% of employers in 99% of situations, considering assholery to be a positive trait is very unwise.
I just started using this (using integration with (spac)emacs), and it does indeed spark joy. I have been performing some refactoring today and it made my life much, much easier.

I'm still working out how to configure it to avoid false positives on some custom macros, but so far I'm all smiles
Making it easier/possible for women to join the workforce doesn't necessarily mean that married women will in addition to their spouse, so what made them do that?

I think answering that is more important than focusing too much on what made it possible. Making it possible and easier for women to join the workforce is overall a good thing, it means that single women can compete (hopefully) equally with single men in terms of income and as a result enjoy the same economical freedom without being forced into marriage. But going from that to having homemakers suddenly decide to also work in addition to their spouses is the missing connection, because theoretically just because it was possible/easier doesn't necessarily mean that they needed to. Was it because now couples wanted to earn more money? So it was "greed" that in the end created the inflation and the prisoner's dilemma?
Store.Golang
Conservative GC is pretty much: look at all reachable memory, whatever looks like a pointer to a range which is allocated keeps that range allocated.

Pros: you don't have to care about type information and precise stack/structure walking.

Cons: If you have range 0x8000-0x8010 allocated, and have a variable with integer value 0x8001 somewhere in the memory, it will keep that range allocated. It doesn't matter that it's an int, not a pointer. Floats and 32-bit pointers have quite a lot of accidental collisions that way.
> But if the strategic logic is to “change everything” thereby “resetting the cloud landscape”, they’re really paying over $34 billion for OpenShift. Which is a vanilla container runtime. That is open source. That IBM already had at least one of (as does everyone else in the industry, including the hyper-scale clouds). And one that isn’t a dominant brand or implementation. IBM could have bought both Docker and Pivotal at a nice premium for a quarter the price of Red Hat and gotten better assets if that is the strategy.

So I guess the question is... why didn't they?
This is why certificate transparency is required now - it means that we no longer need to trust the CAs to tell us when they’ve issued an unconstrained intermediate or cross signed a root. Previously it was essentially luck that led to CA malfeasance being detected.

Especially in the post-finally-ending Symantec world the CAs understand that issuing any such cert is likely to very quickly end their business in most other countries.

I feel the real problem kz is going to have is that they have now demonstrated that they will abuse having a root cert, so there is no way any root stores will let them in in future. I imagine they’d even have difficulty getting any of the other roots to issue certs for them (managed sub-ca I think? I forget terminology)

I prefer to call it "respecting people's property rights", "mixed use" and "European style zoning" are too vague leave way too much room for curtailment of freedom which when they run their course bring us basically back to the status quo.
This isn't entirely surprising, as Encarta was pretty much dead by the time Wikipedia got popular. What's more interesting, however, is that the "official site" for Encarta as listed in Bing's sidebar is an Archive.org link.

How is that a misleading title? The video may be benign, but it also hasn't gone over well. Those aren't even slightly contradictory; something that is benign may also be tone deaf, and the TV ad was certainly tone deaf to the current political situation.

If Huawei wants to appeal to the Canadian people, instead of running vacuous "feel good" tv ads they should publicly appeal the Chinese government to release the Canadian citizens they're holding hostage and in one case threatening to murder. They won't do that though.

(Also to be frank, any excuse to bring more public attention to these human rights violations is a good enough excuse.)

I was nearly involved in a sexual assault case in college.

7 of us were in my dorm room, watching a movie on my computer. 3 girls, 4 guys, including myself. My roommate and I had our beds bunked, him on the bottom, me up top. The accuser was laying next to my roommate on his bunk, I was laying on mine, everyone else was in chairs.

The accuser, like halfway through the movie abruptly gets up and leaves without saying a word. Not a "no", "stop" or anything. Just silence and left. The 6 of us remain were like wtf? Then finished the movie and watched another.

The next week, one of the other girls told us guys something to the effect of: "you won't believe the shit I'm hearing. (Accuser) is saying she was sexually assaulted by you guys the night we were watching movies. And I know that didnt happen, I was right there."

We knew we didn't do anything, but we're scared shitless. One of the guys was an international student and was worried about being deported if expelled while on his student visa.

We nipped it in the bud by the lot of us going immediately to the Dean of Students to address it. He hadn't even heard the accusation yet. He believed us that the accusation was bullshit (the accusation was that somone unhooked her bra without her consent). 6 people vs 1 helped a lot. This was in 2000 and Universities assuming guilt was already prevalent then. We were pretty terrified.

I dont know what the accuser's thoughts were. Maybe she was seeking attention. I just dont know and nearly 20 years later, don't care. But she traumatized 6 people with a false allegation spread by rumors.

All of that said, it's important to investigate ALL allegations of assault/abuse, but it's simultaneously important to not rush to judgement and assume guilt. Due process is prescribed in the US Constitution for a reason. (Admittedly this might not hold for all private schools, but it should still be a guiding principle.)
Do it, and innovate real estate investing too. Fix those crappy contracts and low liquidity markets. Make it easier to move capital into these markets. These units could solve so many problems
Memory is a resource, too, and C++-style destructors do manage it, sometimes.

Destructors do not free the memory of the object being destroyed, but they can free memory that its fields point to.

If you do this with "Rent the Backyard", or by yourself, it means your house can't be sold until you pay the loan.

You probably thought of this already, but I have to ask: What if "Rent the Backyard" is the lender? Couldn't they have a provision in the loan contract allowing the homeowner to move out? What if Rent the Backyard forms an entity with the homeowner, and sells the lot to the entity?
Go is self-hosting (i.e. Google's Go compiler is written in Go and is able to compile itself). I would assume that includes the garbage collector.
Yeah, basically every decision from the early game that they later 'smoothed over' turned out to be important somehow. Except for spell and ability scaling with gear, they messed that one right up at the start and didn't fully fix it til the end of Burning Crusade.

I could write an essay on this subject but the two I'll mention now are cross-server dungeon/BG finder (which destroyed much of the social aspect to the game) and loot tokens instead of loot drops.
There is no need for an arbiter. However, statistically, the majority of conspiracy theories are going to be invalid. As they grow in scale the likelihood of being real also goes down.

https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-35411684

If there is strong evidence for such a conspiracy, then it's gone beyond theory (colloquially) at that point. By that definition the term is like "alternative medicine". If it worked, it'd be called medicine.

Additionally, it's worth pointing out that the existence of a previous conspiracy being true is not actually evidence that later conspiracies are also true. MK Ultra and co are the exception rather than the norm.
It's the obnoxious, upper middle class hyperfeminist careerist rhetoric that we've been taught to believe. Funny, Chesterton once wrote that he found the feminist clamoring for women in the workplace rather intriguing. Most people, most men, perform rather boring and menial jobs. Why a woman would trade the privilege of raising her kids, shaping the future generation of mankind, for 8+ hours of twisting screws and hammering nails, he could not say. The reason the men were doing it was primarily to support their families.

This isn't to argue that women should be barred from working. It is merely to emphasize that this rather vicious characterization of women who raise their own children as "oppressed" or "subjugated" has the very real potential to amuse those women who are confident enough in having chosen their children over their careers.

I like the idea of a permanent, non-removable banner saying "Kazakhstan is spying on you, learn more here <link to more info>.".
Yes, that makes sense. But it also suggests to me that any example someone provides will be handwaved, so I'm not going to bother. At any rate, I agree with OP that it's used as a scapegoat.
I don't think any amazing programmer is immune to every bug. Just imagine a programmer who, when confronted with a bug, is always like "oh, that must be X or Y, we can test that real quick!" (And is right.) What a crazy world that would be.

What I do know is that my programming style is to really dig into every new project I have to work with. Maybe not every part of an application, but everything relevant to the feature I care about. I'm an incredibly judgemental reader (this is sad for personal reasons) and as such, I come up with long lists of "I don't think this would handle that scenario." I don't have time to dig into them, but that list stays there in the back of my mind -- a vague sense that a loop wasn't accounting for a particular kind of array value, etc, etc.

Inevitably, months down the line, some of those bugs surface as actual things. I keep an eye out on tickets, or listen during stand-ups, and I only have to remember just enough of that problem to cut out the investigative time. Eventually I become the person everyone goes to to get them up to speed on any problems within any of the features I've worked in, over people with much more seniority on the team, or often even the people who are responsible for that project. This is also how people seem to always think I've been around twice as long as I have.

I'm not a 10x engineer -- I find it incredibly difficult to stay "on task" and that massively kills my productivity. But the way I approach codebases, outlined above, is just one of many tactics that can, in the right environment, make a programmer far more productive/useful than they would otherwise be.
Fiancee visas aren't approved overnight. And if you are out of the country and apply for one you can't come here on a temporary visa (like tourist or H-1) as your application for fiancee visa is considered prima facie evidence that you do intend to stay, hence you don't qualify for a temporary visa or visa waver.
