That was a strawman Peeping Tom Bertrand Russell constructed. Henri Bergson based a large portion of his work drawing the distinction between functioning on representation versus functioning on cognition.

representation = passive; science isn't assertive. Science is purely passive which is why scientists can never assert something is true but only that it hasn't been disproven. A scientist can say "this is what general relativity says, this is how general relativity maps onto the bending of light, apply it to your work or not. Take it or leave it."

scientism = passive-aggressive; it is assertive by asserting "no metaphysical woo" passively using representations provided by science. They're like the coworker who passively expresses how he feels about his boss by little gestures.

cognition (what Bergson called intuition) = assertive; it reaches knowledge of truth which is why it can definitely assert something is true. But it isn't forceful so it can't convince other people which is why it only reaches up to your being.
>Instead, they are tasked with tearing children away from parents and making orphans by deporting parents away.

I thought it was odd and annoying that the 5 proposals are in different place, and it took me so many clicks to get to them from the blog post.
This is the most readable assembly code I've ever seen.
My experience too. This thread is helping dispel a bit of the imposter syndrome for me — you’re not alone at all.
Enforcing the rules that people have to obey to get and stay in the country. That isn't ethnic cleansing.

Plenty of people who are not white people come to the country legally every year.
Related work by the AMP team is their worker dom project: https://github.com/ampproject/worker-dom

The gist is to mirror a subset of DOM apis in workers and project changes back out to the main page.

As far as I know a few companies have tried similar methods, but most write proprietary APIs, rather than using the DOM.

Still in development but the examples are promising.
I wonder about the extent to which the seemingly endless supply of breaches has translated into an increase in identity theft (or any other negative consequences that I haven't thought of)
This link was gray for me because I recently used Levenshtein distance to sort an arbitrary list of strings by finding a "comparison word" that gave the ordering that I wanted. Definitely more of a cutesy (and difficult to explain) way of doing things rather than practical but Case statements are so boring. It was nice that Presto had it built in.

Did some more digging to see if there was a unique comparison word that would enable me to sort any group of strings but found that it was impossible. Still a fun afternoon of learning.
Right. The heart performs a bunch of chemical reactions to sustain its energy needs and the fact that in 2019 we don't have anything even remotely capable of doing the same at a scale required is kinda depressing.
We did! But while the approach was perfectly plausible in theory, we didn’t feel good about it.

We didn’t find anybody currently using this approach in production. Projects like Caja seemed unmaintained. So we’d have to reason about the security properties ourselves, but it’s hard because those approaches are more blacklist centric (remove unsafe JS features) than whitelist centric. They also did more than we needed, which increases the attack surface area.

There’s some papers on the topic that formalize Javascript in order to write proofs about it, but they’re quite old and some newer Javascript features like async/await definitely could invalidate some of assumptions behind these proofs.

While I don’t know the exact history, the Realms work does derive from Caja, it’s just the latest in this line of evolution.
What kind of videos are you watching with toxic comments? I never see them in the topics I watch, only relevant or helpful ones.

Do we really have no record of how many houses are in the US? I hate how absolutely inefficient government is
Don't worry, guys! I'm working on a browser plugin that will continuously save your work if you're using this app and reload your writing when the app deletes it.
A link to the actual scanning intel or report would be helpful.
Except if you're not at 35 hour per week you have RTT: basically additional PTO, about 2 weeks (10 days).

This adds up to the legal 5 weeks (25 days), for a total of 7 weeks (35 days). It's pretty common to use half a day here and there, basically reducing your work week.

So it's clearly not "just like the US".
Interesting idea. Who actually retains ownership of the property in this case? The NGO or the individual?
No, it implicated tobacco/nicotine based products. And it sounds like something significantly more dangerous than the usual vape products are involved. People have been vaping for years without being hospitalized their first few months of usage. This sticks out as highly unusual, regardless of your views on vape safety overall.
Demonizing immigration?

How about simply enforcing the law against coming or staying here illegally while others wait in line?
As a counter argument I say the place to skimp out on payment isn't in the people making our democracy 30k is a bit OTT in my opinion but 5 billion isn't that much in the grand scheme of the US budget coming in at just .1% of our current spending.
unfortunately this is just becoming the norm and companies aren't held accountable for losing data. every account i make now is with a catchall domain and a randomly generated password
It's a challenging habit to start but not as difficult as you'd imagine to maintain. That said, I've met a number of other professionals that sustain similar schedules. I have an array of hobbies including flying, rock climbing, tennis, and traveling. I've never been diagnosed with any behavior or personality disorder and organize social time primarily around the weekends. I also hit the gym every day which helps a lot. I completely credit any success I've had to working out frequently.

I don't cast any judgement over developers not choosing to reinvest. I also think it's critical to know your limits and stay within them. I've been burned out several times throughout my career and know where my limits are.

I am however very certain that this industry rewards continued learning and with the right mindset it's very rewarding both in the short and long term.
There's a pretty big difference between an application that has 80% of the functionality and an application that fails 20% of the time.

Carving up the functionality in a way that can be implemented independently is a delicate process and not solely the responsibility of the developers.

It's also worth keeping in mind that the easiest way to solve a (jigsaw) puzzle is to start with the corner and edge cases.
What would also be great is to create a link to your terms of service so they can be reviewed before creating an account.
...using ingredients that are supposed to be illegal but there are loopholes
I think this is actually great. Not because of any direct result, because there probably won't be much.

If the government is blacklisting addresses it legitimizes cryptocurrencies and shows some investment in applying existing laws to them.

They could just send transactions to any exchange that isn't up to date with the ban and get another currency all together, so it seems moot, but the intention is interesting.
It serves the people in power to learn about delays beforehand - so they can plan around them - rather than being suprised by said delays at the last minute.

Some people live in denial. You do nobody any favors by encouraging their denial. Some people play stupid power and pressure games to ensure their employees aren't slacking. If you're already not slacking, you do nobody any favors by playing. Some people are between a rock (your estimates) and a hard place (their already agreed-upon deadlines). They're best served by a frank discussion of priorities, so you're hopefully slipping on the tertiary nice-to-haves, that they might even be able to negotiate away, rather than the core requirement they promised.

You don't necessairly need power to push back on unrealistic deadlines. What you might need power for, is to protect your weekends. But there's more forms of power than you've enumerated.

When there's a pattern of wanting my weekends, it's typically because they're trying to do too much with too few resources. What are they going to do - make things even worse, by spending more money to try and attract a replacement - and get less out of said replacement, until they get up to speed on the codebase - and maybe not get as much out of said replacement even then, if they're not quite as good as me at the specific thing I was doing? I'm a programmer living in a tech hub in the underpaid field of gamedev. I've got great BATNAs. I've got more options than they do. So do, I suspect, many/most "Software Developers" mentioned right in the subtitle of the article.

I'll work the occasional weekend once in a blue moon for something actually critical like a launch day. Management will often signal it's actually critical with commensurate compensation - time off, bonuses, or overtime pay. Or by not asking for my weekends in the first place until it's actually useful.
It might not be fake but it seems absurdly biased. The article says the PowerPoint claims the government plans to use the president's hate speech to isolate minorities in the amazon.

Is that really how the PowerPoint presented the information? Who knows I guess.
I've heard the same thing with the instructions saying "Continue past Starbucks" or something similar. This was a few months ago.
It actually was higher under Obama - https://www.axios.com/immigration-ice-deportation-trump-obam...

>By the numbers: Under the Obama administration, total ICE deportations were above 385,000 each year in fiscal years 2009-2011, and hit a high of 409,849 in fiscal 2012. The numbers dropped to below 250,000 in fiscal years 2015 and 2016.

>Under Trump, ICE deportations fell to 226,119 in fiscal 2017, then ticked up to over 250,000 in fiscal 2018 and hit a Trump administration high of 282,242 this fiscal year (as of June).

Edit: I'm not saying I support Trump or ICE, my point is that Obama was hardly a leftist.

Medicine Became the Stealth Family-Friendly Profession
Produce sold loose have to be nicer, bigger, with fewer flaws. The customers will pick those, and the less perfect produce is left to spoil. You have to remember that the retail prices of produce are as much function of the wholesale cost as it is of the spoilage rates.
There isn't one. It's just propaganda.
For some reason they think shits like these will cause some impact on somebody important. But the truth is only SJW buy it.
I think a bigger use-case for these breaches is credential stuffing and more elaborate phishing rather than old fashioned identity theft - but I'm honestly just guessing and have no data to point to.
All these countries are well connected to the rest of Europe, so even if one big company goes down there's still business to do with all the neighbors.
How is your organization structured in regards to dev and QA? Do your devs feel like QA is there to help them succeed, or to catch them in their mistakes?

I worked for a company that briefly had a "bug scoreboard," where QA were rewarded for finding a larger quantity of bugs, regardless of quality. Typos, weird UI things being 1px off (no joke), weird edge-case stuff like "if I load this item into my cart in Chrome, but then change the quantity in IE, and then try to check out in FireFox, it will say I'm not logged in..." The value was next to nil.

As was the company's way, each bug was logged (as is good), but because the bugs were usually found in the test environments, the devs who were actively doing the work felt like they were being directly attacked for focusing on the big picture and NOT the edge cases.

This ultimately lead to the QA director being demoted, once management realized how much money was being wasted on meaningless stuff and not being spent actually improving the site, but the damage was done -- some devs who were working in that environment will never trust QA again.

So, to simplify my question: do your devs feel punished by missing edge cases, or do they feel rewarded by providing functionality?

Very nice! If you're looking for one more variant to add: LD with a limit on the acceptable distance can be done more efficiently, and is nearly always what you want in practice.

I wrote a commented version years back that might be a handy reference; it's since been deprecated because we moved it out of StringUtils, but the original code is here https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/blob/master/src/main/...

No border advocates can't pass a law ending borders so they try to demonize the people enforcing our rules.

Advocate for unlimited visas for anyone who can code. Need to drive down wages for developers.
Apple would not be a tech company if that requires infinite scalability. Sure their gross margins are high, but nowhere near software levels.
As a good tip, in order to keep my workweek short, I try not to work on Wednesday and Friday, and of course, on the week end.

This means I try to work 3 days a week only. I usually can do it pretty much easily.
I'm the original author. There are several reasons:

- The cookie payload if you're using stateless JWTs will often be > 4kb, meaning you can't store the JWT in a cookie.
- You get no benefit from doing it this way since it is more complex to use JWTs than plain old session cookies.
- You will still need centralization regardless if you want to support token revocation.
This is why I tell people we should be building better tools, not trying to replace ourselves. At least until we figure out what AI is supposed to be.

Sort of like slide rules vs Matlab instead of human-with-broom vs a Roomba.
Electric Dump Truck Produces More Energy Than It Uses
There's loads of ways to solve it though. Let them form groups and pool money to pay for analysts and staff as blocks or beef up the OMB to provide better faster analysis of bills and let them use those. The pooling makes a lot of sense to me because with groups that large you're going to have to form shared interest groups just to have reasonable length debates.

And will we be stuck with whatever solution they come up with, even if it sucks, just because it's Google and they can pressure everyone into following them?
Yeah, I got as far as building OBoE a while back but ran into some issues with the UI. I think screen magnification would do the trick.

(Guilty as charged, I'm afraid! Been a long time.)
My first job at Microsoft was to make a system that could catalog the “contracts” or “extension points” installed in Windows. I’d define a category of extensions, such as a COM object registration and my program used normalized levenshtein difference to warn about potential typos. After removing all matching fields names from the instance & class I compared the edit distance in the remaining cross product. If any had a normalized distance < N it produced a warning. It even helped me find a mistyped GUID in a prerelease copy of Windows.
I was searching for where they would talk about Realms handling infinite loops on the main JS thread but I didn’t see it.

Have they tried WebWorkers? This seems like exactly the type of thing WebWorkers were designed for, instead of iframes. A background thread that can load arbitrary code in a sandbox and postMessage to send messages to the main thread.

I remember looking into completely locking down the webworker to not even be able to make requests. It was possible! Just start a webworker from a sandboxed iframe.

Thanks for the comment! I didn't cover that in this talk as it was written for a 1 hour timeslot and already ran long.

I have separate content which addresses these topics in more depth.
Excellent question! Being able to interrupt plugins would be nice, but it was a requirement we had to drop. Instead, we show UI that makes it clear that a plugin froze rather than Figma, in the hope that the user can understand.

WebWorkers have the same issues as iframes where are basically like separate processes where data needs to be copied with message-passing. But if we had gone with the iframe approach, we’d consider sticking the plugin code inside a WebWorker inside the iframe.
Tesla App Is Down
I feel the same way about pretty much everything and anything related to any type of news. Whether it's tech news like this, environmental news, or political news. It's the same thing over and over, as you described. Incident, Twitter/media coverage/hype, blame, lies, apologies, and then it's not talked about again a week later. Sigh.

How dangerous is this app? I mean how much time does it give me? Is the danger that my document will be lost, or that in attempting not to let that happen I will write too much. I will write the wrong thing. I will go down paths which are meant not to be followed, ordinarily edited out of existence. This is the danger, I suspect. But the other is also. It is a double danger. This double danger models a double danger in other areas. It is perhaps a fundamental mode of danger. Dangerness. The fear of a thing which both prevents or enables, complementarily. How does that work? What are examples? Can we name a time the fear has positively (we posit) prevented manifestation? Certainly. In general, it is socially unacceptable to analyze or look too deeply past the constructs which supposedly shield prying eyes from the conclusions which would be evident if the components were scrutinized. China Miéville explores this exquisitely in The City and The City. There citizens of two nearly colocated cities 'unsee' the other by law. Likewise, we ordinarily must unsee what is meant to be unseen. The danger then is that our unseeing be threatened by the possiblity that we lose sight altogether. Backed into a corner and forced to confront complete unsight, we restrain the restrainer. We disassemble the governor so we do not accidentally edit ourselves out of existence. Through abolition of constraint we cross over into conceptual indecency.

Did you read the article? Tell me where is the leaked document.
im a little perplexed why the phrase 'oral' was at all used here. It literally means "spread by word of mouth" -- but this is a text format. although this is probably a little bit nitpicky, i guess.
I failed when I got bored and copied the text, but I'm slightly proud of my random thoughts.

----

On one summer night, I was staring at the sky pondering the mystery of the universe. Why are we here? What are we? What is consciousness? Does consciousness exist outside of the body?
Where do we go when we die? How did the universe come to be? Is God the answer? Why are the laws of the universe set precisely the way they are? The answer can't be the multi-verse, because in that situation there are an infinite number of universes.

In an infinite number of universes, an infinite amount of possibilities exist. That means, in any given unverse, ANYTHING can and will happen.

That means, in one of them, as I'm typing this silly nonsense, a naked clown will kick in my door, but he will be killed before he attempts to strangle me by a piece of debris that crashes through the roof, which let loose from an airliner flying overhead.

If that's not weird enough, in one of those other infinite universes, he won't be attempting to strangle me, he will have a butcher knife. In another one, he will have a shotgun.

In another universe, he won't kick in the door, but will blow it up with grenades. And in one, he won't be naked, but dressed in a tuxedo. In one universe, the plane would drop an engine on him. Or me. Or it won't be an engine, it will be a large piece of frozen lavatory ice.

This doesn't seem logical, although Donald Trump did just attempt to purchase Greenland, which does seem very odd and very random.

The article is talking about the problem of Lyme being widespread and poorly understood in general -- chronic Lyme is not a focal point.
In general, if Google talks about open standards, don't let it blind you. Somewhere in there _will_ be some loophole, through which Google will benefit from any standard they propose. And, in the very unlikely case, that we cannot find that loophole, their benefit will be, that some competitor has a disadvantage.

When Google talks about privacy, you can be 100% sure it is some kind of deception to make you trust them more or shift how you perceive things, in such a way, that benefits Google.

They are riding that "It's open! It must be good!" wave quite hard and too many people are fooled by such a tactic.
There are a lot of unhelpfully named metrics, algorithms, etc. but I actually think “edit distance” is fairly illustrative as these things go.

Another good one is Manhattan distance (or better yet, city block distance) in place of Hamming distance. It gives a nice mental picture of the number of road segments you’d need to travel in a city to get from point A to point B.
An interview that is easily gamed. If people self deported after getting all their hearing and being determined not to
