Does CreditKarma actually run their ad targeting and delivery system entirely in house? Even if so, that is still one more surveillance company that has your dossier that otherwise wouldn't...

And you're really going to have to back up that second point, because a very basic legal principle is having to respond to notices in a timely manner. If I have a private file on my computer that says "harryh owes me $100" for years, you can't possibly be responsible for that. If I send you a notice saying you owe me $100 for some plausible reason, and you don't refute it within a few months, you've now implicitly accepted that state of affairs and my case has grown much stronger.

Knowing that the surveillance companies merely could be conspiring to defame me doesn't imply that I need to investigate their activities just in case. But as soon as I have knowledge that they actually are, then I am forced to either let that state of affairs stand or go after them for libel.
Once upon a time, I went through my logins and tried to change them to strings with weird characters. I ended up with a password of on an internal school site and couldn't change it to anything else, since the "change password" site somehow rejected it.
That makes absolutely no sense. You are saying that because person A offers nothing yet succeeds, person B is unable to succeed whether or not people think he offers anything.

As long as you can succeed in spite of what other think you can offer, they are not the same.
Can somebody explain the performance characteristics? For instance, let’s say I have a deep stack of 15 async calls. If the deepest call yields, what code is executed? Does it “jump back” to the top ala “longjmp” or it needs to return back up the stack frame by frame? And what happens when it resumes execution? IOW is the overhead linear with the stack depth or not?
Even if they fix it I'm not going to use any 737.
This is a really important topic that I wish the author had addressed. The publisher often doesn't make more money from the $200 CPM ad than it does the $2 CPM ad. Most of the difference goes to the ad network.
Similarly don't get 'none', 'no plate', or 'na' :-)

It would be cool if you could do punctuation so you cloud get "'; drop table;" alas little Bobby Droptables will likely never get that plate. :-)

I did see a plate "I<heart>0X45" which was a cute nerd joke, I expect that would be more difficult to get these days.

I wonder if the issue is liability- people suffering from various ailments are liable to Google their symptoms in hopes of finding an at-home cure instead of going to a doctor[0], and if this turns out badly they could conceivably turn around and try to sue Google for providing harmful medical advice[1]. De-ranking sites that provide medical advice, which aren't whitelisted well-known sites like Mayo Clinic or WebMD, might prevent this- or at least provide a better defensive position in the courtroom.

I feel what you're saying is that regardless of how subpar a language is compared to alternatives as long as it has community built specific libraries that solve your problems you're more productive using them than anything else.

Which is of course a fair point. A language by itself is probably not even in the top 3 considerations when choosing new tech. Stuff like runtime, ecosystem and the amount of available developers would probably be more important in most cases.

That's not how this works. By your logic having a password consisting of 1,2,3,4 is only twice as secure as having just 1,2.

We will have enough time to switch to the new CA if necessary. And ACME protocol is independent, so software just needs to update some configuration values.

Anyway letsencrypt already serves 80% of market. So it's already too big to fail, I don't see much difference between 80% and 100%. But dozens of random CA roots in my browser do bother me.

>I think the DFW quote is actively damaging because it paints a picture of certain places as belonging to a certain group of people by natural right rather than by a more contingent or accidental mechanism.

Well, arriving could be accidental, but living there generation after generation, building the local culture, building the buildings, cultivating the land, etc, made it yours in a non "continent" but very real way.

When you go to see e.g. Venice, you don't go to see some wildlife area that some people happened to arrive nearby recently and claim, but to experience the culture and building and legacy that people built (and built upon) over millennia. There's few things "contingent or accidental" about that.

Perhaps difficult to explain this to Americans that are e.g. children of first generation immigrants, that live in a culture/city that others have built, and thus it's all the same to them.

Though the Native Americans would beg to differ - but those were treated as an "infestation to be eliminated" by the new European arrivals at the time.

Those laws seem like such a raw deal, though, since it's not like you can take the charger with you. You're allowed to upgrade your landlord's property at your own expense, providing you also take out an insurance policy at your own expense. And even if you're fine with that, it doesn't really help "garage orphans," since you can only do it if you have a garage or assigned parking space with access to electricity.
Great idea. Any cop writing you up and any traffic cam will suffer segmentation fault.
Sadly I have to agree. In the age of open offices where free-range chickens have more space than us, that bit of privacy goes a long way.
“Do people think that the risk of nuclear Armageddon just went away with the Cold War?”

I’m pretty sure the answer is “yes.” I’m baffled as to why, but that seems to be the case.

I’m also pretty sure that MAD is a very risky thing, and we really can’t count on it long term. The fact that we’ve made it many decades without a nuclear war indicates that the probability is low, but not necessarily low enough.

The problem is, what do you do about it? I agree that we (as in humanity) need to disarm, but it’s not going to happen. It’s a classic prisoners’ dilemma: we’re best off if nobody has nukes, but then someone can gain a huge advantage by acquiring them, and then everybody else is better off if they also acquire them. (And remember that game theory was created to analyze MAD!)

If MAD isn’t fully effective and disarmament isn’t going to happen, then building defenses makes sense.
It is mostly putting modules together as opposed to an exercise in algorithms.

That said most of the intellectual content is in understanding the problem domain and having empathy with the end user and the courage to press management for the space to build a UI that the end user can stand to use.

If you are lucky you can develop applications with a stable and well-documented toolbox, but applications often have a large amount of "accidental complexity" that comes from problems with the frameworks. One trouble is that many frameworks are developed by people with a systems background that don't really understand applications programming so they build something that has some good ideas but also some bad ideas that make you a 1/3 programmer compared to what you could be.

The first part is quite good. Those who could be making infrastructure cheaper have no incentive to do so. The comparison to education and healthcare is spot-on.

The second part is a bunch of Malthusian nonsense.
The subway rail problem for SF doesn't seem to me to have a root cause of American governments lack expertise (which they do, to be certain) but rather simply that Americans are dishonest. Tutor-Perini thought they could chisel off a couple dollars by using inadequate rails because they didn't think SFMTA's supervising engineers would notice. They were right: it was a third-party audit that discovered the problem.

As a country we basically venerate fraud. This has consequences which could easily have been predicted.
The arrow from Spanish to Greek is wrong. Funnily enough, we only use "Greek" in slang as a way to refer to anal sex.
Perhaps not today, because there aren't enough cars to use them - demand needs to catch up. But yes, it's feasible to fill entire parking lots with outlets at every parking spot. There are already examples of this in Norway.

The outlets can be built to share and distribute available power, so the grid connection required is not as huge as you might think. In practice this isn't an issue, as it's unlikely that every outlet will be drawing the maximum current at the same time.

I think llmapx's comment still applies here.
Wait, if we freely spend on infrastructure, and infrastructure assumed to be just a given, then why do we have a D rating on infrastructure by our engineers? Why do we have so much neglect in our infrastructure? Something doesn't make sense here.
Vet talks in advance, apparently.
It's never a good idea. It's not really a power imbalance that matters, but rather that the powerful will consider an arbiter's past decisions in deciding whether to accept them.

Thus an arbiter who wants to keep on being an arbiter will tilt things considerably towards the powerful and an arbiter between two powerful entities will split their decisions about in the middle. Give a union binding arbitration and they can simply double their demands and end up with basically whatever they really asked for in the long run.

I'd rather not go back to the 2000's and earlier method of validation that required faxing in paperwork, then waiting days and days, etc. This is paperwork which could easily be forged, by the way. Finally, after decades, it is simple enough to get TLS that people actually do it.
I don't think I've come across the site before, but at first glance it doesn't look reputable at all. --I realize that looks aren't everything, but I see the following that look like red flags to me:

1. They show logs for news sources such as The New York Times, BBC, etc., but they don't actually link to those sites, let alone to articles that actually mention this site.

2. I see click-bait titles like "The top 19 nutrition myths of 2019".

3. Reviews by "professionals" that I can't easily verify. "Mike Hart, MD" is an example. Who is he? How do I know he's a real person? If he is a real person and a real doctor, how do I know he actually recommended this site?

4. The attempts to get me to spend money feels slimy. --This is pretty subjective, I know, but that's how it comes off to me.

So I can understand how this site wouldn't rank high in a search engine. I would need to do a lot of research to decide whether or not to trust it, let alone whether or not they have information that's actually worth spending money on.
You are correct, the overhead is linear with the stack depth. I suggested a more longjmp-esque approach [here](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/pre-rfc-cps-transform-for-...) early on, but it didn't seem to be worth the extra implementation effort. Benchmarking never showed this linear overhead to be an issue.

The current thinking from the team seems to be that, if this does become an issue, a) inlining before state machine transformation can flatten this out quite a bit and b) convincing LLVM to do what would be required is a lot of work.
Change the fucking plate you muppet.
> And how's it helping you verify the correctness of your codebase at compile time (it still compiles the source to byte-code before evaluation)? Last time I checked, it didn't care too much about type annotations, and it didn't type-check anything before execution without additional shoehorning.

All of the python I write is checked at compile time. Much like java and javac are different tools, python and pytype/mypy are different tools. This is nothing new.

>C#, Rust. Notice that I don't even mention my man Haskell or Scala while the latter one is really big.

Neither supports dependent types.

> Uh, even Java has dependent types, anyway. Read the docs.

No, Java has generic types, not dependent types[0]. Dependent types are types that depend on the value, not the type of an argument. As a concrete example:

@overload
def open(
path: _PathType,
mode: Literal["r", "w", "a", "x", "r+", "w+", "a+", "x+"],
) -> IO[Text]: ...
@overload
def open(
path: _PathType,
mode: Literal["rb", "wb", "ab", "xb", "r+b", "w+b", "a+b", "x+b"],
) -> IO[bytes]: ...

Java, rust, and C# don't support this. C++ does for certain types (integers). Python and typescript support this for certain types (integers, strings, enum values).

Other common examples are type-safe matrix multiplication that at compile time can ensure that the matrix sizes all match correctly. Eigen in C++ does this. Haskell and Scala can do this with some massaging, although its not natural. Java, Rust, C# just plainly cannot.

In the US, the range goes from from $0 to $400k. There's a benefit in prestige and connections from the higher priced ones, but you can absolutely succeed with the $0 option.

Most Ivy League schools have need-based scholarships that bring the cost to $0 for students from low-income families, but you need great entrance test scores. Lambda School (I'm an investor) pays you up front, and takes a percentage of your income later. https://lambdaschool.com/about
Can the warning be closed? My assumption was that it's persistent.

I agree the warning isn't as specific or actionable as perhaps it would be ideally, but seeing as the browser has no idea why the SSL keys are being logged (it could just be for debugging purposes) or how to fix it without breaking things further, I'm not sure what more it could say.

Venice even during the day when loaded with tourists is a maze of places unencumbered by tourists. I had loads of fun wandering around there, getting lost, discovering random small plazas, etc.

Sadly I think the answer to this is "more consumerism". As you get more all electrics, you'll see more chargers showing up at restaurants and shopping centers, encouraging you to "charge while you spend".

Either that or cities are going to have to deal with a bunch of really long extension cords all over the street!

I suppose another option is that you'll see an AirBnB type thing for garages with chargers, or small "charge garages" opening near places with only street parking.

It takes about three minutes to buy a week's worth of fuel in any settled area. It would be a challenge to plan a route anywhere that doesn't pass a gas station. How does public charging compare, half an hour per day if you can find one?

People are buying pure electrics betting on charging at home, but some of them are going to be screwed when they move.
Perhaps, but one of those targets is effectively stationary because it's so comparatively slow.

It's sort of a "Tragedy of Systems." It's very easy for negligent or malicious actors to make bad decisions in a system context, but to have the consequences of those decisions not manifest in the same time or place as where the decision occurred. This makes it really easy to screw things up without suffering the consequences in complex systems, and people often make decisions for their personal benefit ignorant of or willfully ignoring the consequences.

Not sure why you'd single out the Chinese tourists.

Most American/English/German/Australian/Russian etc tourists are just as ghastly and vacuous - to the point of there being several idioms and cultural artifacts in Europe about that...

2% is from Quasar, a Java fiber library. Some simple benchmark compared it to async code.

Now that rust has async, couldn't they make fibers an opt-in replacement for threads? Your libraries use async, but you can handle those calls with fibers. Fiber support is compiled into your code but not the libraries

Not trying to discount your opinion, but it sounds like much of your complaints are related to Drupal more than to PHP.
