This is again a comment without an iota of evidence. If you have any proof of China breaking one country two system which means the provisions of "Basic Law", you can definitely take your case to competent Hong Kong courts.

Regarding extradition bill which is already made dead I still need to see any evidence that it was bad, except the protest more reflected that people think Hong Kong judiciary is incompetent and works at China's whims. Here below is a brief for your perusal:

"Upon receiving a request for extradition, Hong Kong’s Department of Justice first determines whether several conditions are met, including: the crime is one of the 37 listed categories and punishable by seven years or more in prison; the offence in question is a crime in both Hong Kong and the requesting jurisdiction; the offence in question is not of a political character, and the offence is not punishable by death.

If the justice department determines that the conditions are met, then it goes before Hong Kong’s chief executive, who can decide whether to veto or proceed with the extradition request. At this point, the suspect can apply for judicial review, with a right to appeal in the city’s highest court. If the request proceeds, an arrest warrant is issued, after which the subject is immediately barred from leaving Hong Kong. Once the subject is arrested, the case moves to the courts, where a preliminary hearing is held. Once the court decides that there is no political motive behind the extradition request, and that there is sufficient prima facie evidence that there is a possible case, it can then make an order of committal. At this point, the suspect can appeal.

With the judicial process over, the request goes back to the chief executive, who can again decide to deny the extradition request on humanitarian grounds. Here, the subject can petition the chief executive to oppose extradition. Should the chief executive decide to proceed with the extradition, an extradition order is given. At this stage, the suspect can again appeal to the courts to stop the extradition. If the suspect decides not to appeal, or if the appeal is unsuccessful, the suspect is extradited. The process could take years, which is typical of extradition proceedings."
This is exactly what I needed, all other solutions I've been exploring so far have either been a pain to set up or a pain to use for my users. Price seems good for what's being sold too, it's ridiculous how some competitors ask for twice that amount but cannot even do basic UX!!
I know you said GUI, but this single-line git alias that goes in ~/.gitconfig changed my life and I don't look for a git GUI anymore:

[alias]
l = log --date-order --date=iso --graph --full-history --all --pretty=format:'%x08%x09%C(red)%h %C(cyan)%ad%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08%x08 %C(bold blue)%aN%C(reset)%C(bold yellow)%d %C(reset)%s'

Next, go to one of your git project directories and type "git l"

If you don't want to learn rebasing and other Git fun, I'm not sure how much this will help you, but for me it's invaluable when it comes to identifying the base of my branch and where I would like to transplant it to.

Along with the basic "git pull --rebase" I also frequently use "git rebase --onto" and "git pull --rebase=merges" or "git rebase --rebase-merges" in my projects in order to manage branches that were created in an order other than what I want them to merge in. This keeps the history nice and linear, so I can avoid having any commits with two or more parent commits.

I don't find there's much else I would want to have a GUI to help with. But without a git graph that I can scroll freely, I feel as if I could not do my day-to-day work with such ease. This makes the most usable git graph with colorized edges and may be all you need. That, along with a nice PS1 setting so you get some branch status information right in your terminal status line without asking for it every time.
I have a question in regards of this.

If company A owns/purchased license for a product issued by company C.

The license clearly states:

"Licensee may not resell, rent, lease … the Source Code or any part of it … "

And now company A gets sold to company B.

What should happen in this case with the License? Whom the License belongs now? Shall it be revoked or what?

How to deal with such situations in practice?

"Government" is a broad grouping. It varies depending on the politicians making it to.

My question: Is it healthy or safe to live in a house or apartment that has no working AC in areas like the southeastern US. I know AC is a modern luxury and that people survived for years without it, but I wonder if the design and construction of later houses or apartments affects anything. My AC ritualistically dies every summer and while I wait for maintenance to drag its feet, I often find myself waking up in pools of sweat

Whilst not the same as mentioned in TFA, I noticed in Signal that if you allow it access to your contacts it will tell you how many of your contacts are already on Signal. I understand this is useful from a usability/discoverability aspect, but from a privacy perspective I have no reason to be made aware of the fact that one of my old bosses who's number is in my phone is on Signal and neither should they know that I am on Signal for the same reasons (or lack thereof).

What's worse is there seems to be no way to opt-out of this behavior. I can deny Signal access to my contacts, thereby not knowing which of my contacts are on Signal, but that doesn't stop the other party from knowing if I am on Signal if they have given Signal access to their contacts.

It's not farfetched to consider a world where an oppressive regime may outlaw the use of something like Signal, Telegram or even WhatsApp and they'd be able to easily determine if you're using such a service through passive techniques such as these.

As far as I know, Wickr is a bit more privacy focused, but it doesn't tick the open source box for me (although the supposed source code is published[1] for public review).

> More than half of the respondents said they either had a negative experience while applying for engineering internships or knew another woman who had a negative experience, such as being subjected to gender-biased interview questions and inappropriate remarks…

> They described instances where a male interviewer flirted with them during the interview, sent an unsolicited photo of himself, asked if they had a significant other, or made sexual remarks in their presence. The respondents also reported feeling dismissed or demeaned because of their gender. One respondent was asked why she would want to go into tech as a woman; in another instance, a male interviewer laughed when the candidate said she saw herself becoming a software engineer in five years.

These quotes were taken from the article. The problem seems to be greater than just tone of voice.

From what i saw in the source code, it's a feature that lets sqlite open a database file stored on a web server. There is a class in the code HTTPVFS [1] that proxies sqlite's filesystem operations to http requests.

I was in Phoenix last summer in what (to my poor Canadian body) was the hottest day ever, anywhere. I think it was like 111F / 44C. While my friends and I were over at an outdoor mall looking for dinner, we entered a spot that was more than 10C lower than the ambient temperature. Just instantly colder. I honestly stopped in my tracks.

Above us, a mister was spraying water. None of the water was coming within 10 feet of the ground as it all instantly evaporated- Phoenix is a desert- but in doing so, the air was chilled. The cold air dropped, cooling this small area.

I cannot believe just how effective this means was. Now, granted, to do this they had to waste clean fresh water in the middle of a desert, which isn't great. But it does go to show the potential of some of these tricks. May not work in 99% humidity, mind you, but there are other tricks up the sleeve of the clever engineer.
> I suspect even 80F at 90+% humidity will feel really unpleasant.

That's hardly likely in Phoenix.

What do micro services have to do with it? If anything, HA is harder to achieve with microservices. There's all these weird false dichotomies going around in this thread.
The fact that these proposals are compromises is precisely what makes them so potentially effective.

Instead of playing the usual game of cat and mouse where browsers move to block tracking and ad providers respond by coming up with creative ways to circumvent those restrictions ad infinitum, Google is creating a mutually acceptable compromise where ad companies don't have to fight against user privacy in order to make a profit.

It sounds like you believe you've got the upper hand in this fight, so you're more inclined to push for unconditional surrender rather than a peace treaty. That's understandable, and if you want to go that route I'm sure there will be other browsers and browser extensions which will continue to pursue that strategy. Just as, as you say, there will probably be advertisers who continue to peruse the "gather as much data on users as possible" route (though Google plans to fight those advertisers themselves to maintain the truce). But that's not the only valid solution to the problem, and I'm glad to see Google offering an alternative.

If you can make a microbenchmark to show this, it could be a nice blog post.

(Some recommendations: Make sure that the run time of each version is at least 1 or 2 seconds. Repeat the measurement 5 or 10 times, preferably in some pattern like ABABABABAB, Not AAAAABBBBB. Repeat this with different arrays sizes to have a guess of the complexity order and see if the reduction is constant on the startup time or is proportional to the total time. Make some graphics, graphics are nice.)

Your quote is about Jaipur and not Phoenix. I am responding to your quote.
Oh yeah, I agree. It's a good one. Several folks in the comments called out the author for not bringing it up. Personally, I think the author had a bias where any solution had to be close to the size of the native, standalone app.

Also I don't want to screw with advertisers' perception of who I am. If anything, I really like how ads are actually relevant to me -- it's a lot better than the days of penis pill banners. I just want them to stop following me around so closely and putting my "anonymized" data at risk of exfiltration by hackers or governments.
> Swing states are the states most likely to have divided government. And if divided government is good for anything, it is accountability.

Thanks, we wanted to create something "on the edge". But it seems quite many people take it as a satire. In the next version we will cool down a little bit.
So after looking it over, the idea is to eliminate get rid of the 'winner take all' system in the participating states. Seems fine to me. It's definitely hard to argue for winner takes all electoral votes.

I'm not really a history guy, but I wonder why states decided to move in that direction to begin with? Guess I'll have to look into it.

What I don't get is if there are this many states trying to push this idea, why do they need a bill like this to do it. Why don't those states just take it upon themselves to change their laws individually. What's stopping them right now?

Moreover, it seems one of the main points is that the current system causes candidates to only focus their campaign in a few battleground states. I'm struggling to see how the National Popular Vote system would change this. Maybe it would break up the current pattern, if so, I have a feeling another similar pattern would emerge.

The battlegrounds would just shift. For example, it might just redistribute the candidates focus to the greater metro areas where 2/3 of the population lives, and republican/ democrat distributions are more even (according to the site). If the city centers are strongly democrats, and rural strongly republican, the I imagine the same problem emerging since those areas are a 'done deal'. Why would the candidates spend any resources there is there is no chance of swaying them?

India: Angel Tax Provisions for Startups Removed, Says Finance Minister
I was talking with the guy who ultimately edited this book, and his son had just watched Star Wars, his 4-year-old-son, and was very affected by it. And I kind of had this theory that when you're a very young person, the character in Star Wars you care about the most or like the most is Luke Skywalker, who's this, you know, wholly good, heroic, almost naively pure kind of character.

And then you become, you know, 12 years old, a teenager, and you gravitate toward Han Solo, who seems like a bad person, but ultimately he is good. And when you're kind of going through adolescence, you sort of like the idea of being perceived as a dangerous individual, even though you still sort of identify as being good.

"But when you really become adult, you're no longer looking at characters — fictional or unfictional — as aspirational. You kind of are the person you are. And now when you look at characters, you kind of want to see things in them that help you understand yourself. So I feel, as an adult, the character you care about the most is Darth Vader. The maturation process seems to move a person toward relating to and understanding villainous personalities.

My assembly knowledge is limited, but it looks like both const_pointer and const_value get put into .rodata (read-only data). In both cases you're trying to change what is at the memory location that the pointer points to, in the first case it's the pointer that's in .rodata so you can change what it points to, but in the second case it's the value that's in .rodata so you can't change it.

Edit: Actually I don't think the pointer is put anywhere, rather its value is stored in .data (non-read-only data) so it can be mutated without issue. Again though, my assembly isn't amazing.
