I am a huge fan of gitlab. We are in the process of moving our github org over. We love!! the gitlab ci tools. We use them extensively for mobile cicd. The gitlab ci runner is super easy to get running and coordinates well with a host and vm setup. We run it on a mac min sitting on my desk and have never had any issues with it.

My only nitpick is the regex matching they do to mask protected environment variables from ci logs is not sufficient. It won't match + scrub aws secret keys in the logs, which seems like a pretty glaring problem in a cicd setup.

> masked so they are hidden in job logs, though they must match certain regexp requirements to do so

We've been able to work around it, but it did make that particular automation more difficult.
How would that be a case of misogyny, then?

As the father of an autistic son, and having had a very awkward dating life myself, I empathize to some extent.

People on the spectrum tend not to speak emotions and empathy as a native language. But they’re often good learners if properly taught. Never setting boundaries for RMS for decades may have contributed to him never been properly housebroken and ultimately didn’t do him any favors.

Wonder how that correlates to homelessness.
Those jobs drive up the value of their existing homes if additional housing stock isn’t built to support said jobs.
ok, so essentially the problem is the fragmented development and feature libraries. that is a fair point. let's hope that some javascript frameworks develop into that direction.
If this is indeed the case then I mostly agree it sounds like he's arguing why it's called assault.

For example, people will call it "rape" when it's someone underage no matter the circumstance. Having willful sex with someone underage vs. physical forcing them to have sex with you are two very different things. Yet in (most?) people's minds they just call it rape, under the context that someone underage can't properly consent. Ok, but physical forcing yourself on someone vs willingly are still different things. I don't know what to call them, but calling them the same thing is completely disingenuous to the crime.

I'm guessing this is what he was going after? Maybe because when we think of "assault" we generally think it's the physical act of assault, not an emotional or control one...
You’re thinking too much. Stop giving RMS the benefit of the doubt, and stop trying to use logic to put yourself into his shoes. You’re not allowed to empathize or play devils advocate. It’s 2019, you have to blindly agree or you’re “part of the problem”. Now assume your moral position, or prepare to be ostracized.
You assume they still don't get paid when a credit report is run without asking for that burro. I don't see any evidence that this is how the fee structure works.

> Legal drafting always leads to absurdities

Agree, and that's exactly the kind of absurd RMS was talking about.

That's it, just that.

He can't concive that something is illogical.

Does he deserve the blame for it?

> let's just say that if defending rich old men screwing young kids is apparently your hill to die on

It never happened though.

That's the point: in court you could be charged for saying it.
No, the argument is that this didn't happen.
Interesting, that makes the case for a moon -> geostationary stronger...
I think you're missing the key point (and perhaps the article doesn't explain it clearly): if the nervous system is completely different from other animals, then that implies (maybe) that the nervous system did not just evolve once, and then branch from there, but evolved multiple times, each time slightly differently but with similar results.

This is called "convergent evolution," and is fairly common (though not necessarily common for big systems like the nervous system), but what it implies is that there is something fundamental about the structure of the nervous system that leads it to being evolved again and again, even if in slightly different versions.

Contrast that to other things that are evolved, let's say endoskeletons (bones). These seem fundamental to us, but (as far as I know) they only evolved once, and it would be perfectly reasonable to imagine a world where they never evolved, and all the animals had exoskeletons.

Indeed, if endoskeletons really only evolved once, then we might really have no reason to expect them in any alien species. But if something like the nervous system evolved multiple times, then we expect that to be a solution that evolution finds again and again.
> what the person is doing is calling human trafficking victims "willing."

Please stop spreading this misinformation. As explained in this thread countless times, Stallman never called the victim "willing" -- he just said she might have been threatened into looking like she is.
What I wrote is not a strawman, it is the definition of misogyny. Perhaps you are conflating this with sexism. The article used the word misogyny, so that is what I am using.

Hey, CI/CD PM here. I'd love to learn more about how you're using GitLab for mobile, if you're up for it ping me at @jlenny on gitlab.com. It's an area of focus for us, and it's always great to get to know another person who is using that use case.
I didn't grow up in the projects but I was projects adjacent, where I caught the school bus with the project kids and hung out in their homes. In fact my best friend whom I still talk to regularly now that we're both in our early 30s grew up in multiple projects throughout his childhood.

The thing that really helped the both of us out were magnet schools. By taking us out of our neighborhoods and giving us friends and relationships from more walks of life, I think it helped us see that the world was larger than the blocks we grew up on and we adjusted for living in a world that didn't begin and end with things that were in our immediate surroundings.

Recently I've watched 'The Wire' for the first time and the season focused on education really hit hard. Having gone to 'inner city' schools where I wore uniforms and felt pressure to pursue... let's call them 'non-academic' goals, I really related to the outlook of the adults in that school. Particularly when the kid's mom was scolding him for not having the initiative to start selling drugs (this was my friend's mom in spades) and the retired police officer who explained to that kid's dad that he didn't have to live in the same world they grew up in. I got a similar speech from a vice principal who grew up in my neighborhood.
They might be privately owned, but the police actually get to say to new bars, restaurants, etc. how many CCTV camera they must have in order to get an alcohol licence.

It got a bit ridiculous at one point with one perfectly normal pizzeria in my town being asked to install 6 different CCTV cameras, but they started pushing back at that point.
This has been said before, but free speech is beyond just government censorship and has a wider definition. Regardless of that, the idea that someone's livelihood is under threat due to their speech can be just as coercive as threatening a fine or jail for their speech. The idea that government chilling is someone kinder than private chilling is wrong.
It’s laughable.
I think that's one of the only sane comment around there, not thinking in a vacuum. Thank you :-)

What a weird, unfounded bit of vitriol to vomit into the discussion
This is horribly incorrect. Freedom of Speech is a larger concept outside of how it is (and can even possibly be) codified in law. The US Bill of Rights is phrased in terms of a restriction on the government, because that's the only line that can be straightforwardly drawn within the framework of the Constitution.

An example of the concept being applied to quasi-public entities, with enough generality for the legal realm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pruneyard_Shopping_Center_v._R...

Interesting. Who is "we" (which company)?
Completely see your point in the privacy aspect, but it is really difficult to offer a good user experience with a project like this without storing data. I don't even consider selling data as part of a business model for my projects but I understand that is opaque to the user and not everyone is like this.

On the second argument, I assume recruiters are seeing tons of resumes presented in the same package daily. I don't think this will affect negatively to the applicants. Hopefully this starts becoming a problem and I get to work and design 100 more templates for variety :)
Good points.

For anyone interested in skipping the superfluous and sensationalizing article, here is a direct link to the paper, avoiding the embedded tracking link: https://arxiv.org/abs/1908.09339
"Despite the crime, high taxes, high cost of living, and abundance of traffic"
Only that, eh? Kind of hard to argue the city is "safer" when you admit it has higher crime.

You should step back and read your comment objectively. You're essentially saying "I don't want to live there because I disagree with [my stereotyped view of] their political/personal views, and am willing to overlook major indicators of quality of living to live with high crime, taxes, traffic, and high CoL."

I recognize you may have _reasons_ for your stereotype and I don't want to discount them, but for every anecdotal you may have, there is one in the other direction. I've seen bigots in NY and saints in KS. From where I stand, you're the one being close-minded and bigoted by judging people based on how many other people live around them and assuming you are better than them.
My point was that the commonly mocked VisitorObserverFacadeFactoryFactory Java idiom doesn't normally use generics at all.

Of course you can mix generics with terribly named classes and OOP patterns, but that's hardly a problem with generics themselves.
Yes - The first amendment is as follows:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

In that vein, I would see the government limiting the ability for someone to speak out against anything as a violation of their Free Speech/First Amendment rights.

Depends what you visualise as urban, I'd expect that small and medium towns surrounded by agricultural and horticultural production that serve the town, and large enough to have public transport links are most efficient. Conurbations and mega cities can't be anything like as efficient or sustainable.
Lack of proportion is the problem for me. Mr.Stallman could be censured - but again the people went after his position/job for what are at the best mis-guided or flawed statements.

If Mr.Stallman were to be in Epstein's Island well that is whole level of any issue.

Whatever you say might not even be free from consequences from the government. Freedom of speech is a bit of a nebulous concept in that sense.

I don't think the distinction between government and private institutions is that meaningful though. When a constitution is preventing the government from infringing upon a right it's usually a good idea if that right is protected against other people as well. In fact freedom of speech is covered by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which clearly wasn't intended to only protect people against their own governments.
GitLab's value prop can be more or less summed up as 'everyone else gives you ala carte tools, we give you one that's unified'.

"problematic person" eh...

He's clearly a freethinker, and we have all gotten a lot of advantages from his courage doing his thing and making his vision for FOSS a reality.

Now he's said his thoughts on this too... it's legitimate for him to do so and "problematic" everyone is in a huge panic to punish him in case the mob should get set on them.
Perhaps you should use a better search engine. Several people have gone to great lengths to document this adequately and in public.

If you want to argue with someone about the definition of sexism, you should go argue with them and stop wasting my time.
This is fantastic, thanks!

I don't know if I would mind so much donating, say, $20 / month worth of microtransactions to content I really enjoy...

The problem would be the friction of deciding what I reward and what I don't. I don't want to make 200 decisions like that every month in my day to day browsing.

If you bundle it, then it's basically just a subscription (I already pay for, say, the Atlantic).

If you let an algorithm decide for you, then it probably becomes a shitshow.

Maybe there's a genius idea to solve this massive UX problem but I certainly don't see it.
The instrumental interpretation of free speech is more limiting than the philosophical one.

Until you get older and realize that you could cash out and benefit from a change of pace.

Get a nice sized house, with money in the bank, grow a garden, listen to the quiet, cut your own lawn, and share the experience with other people, who like you, eventually migrated back to give that small town feel another chance, later in life.

And now that small town has an art gallery. A Starbucks. Some nice restaurants. And town councillors that like you, moved back from the city and have a desire to fix some of what you remember being broken.

Many of the small towns I remember growing up in that were bigoted close minded places, have gradually changed. Not all. But it's happening.

If the data shows I benefit, I would not be against a time and dollar commitment. But just as I’m not asking for subsidies (and demand transparent accounting), I’m not willing to subsidize urban living if I receive no benefit. I don’t want to support unnecessary artificial scarcity.
Tell us more about the in-depth and personal knowledge you have about the former Bezos marriage. Were you present for their marriage counseling? Their intimate disagreements? Tell us about how they interacted on a personal level and what their dynamic was together.

Marriages are complicated. What we see in public is very limited and far from the truth. Being the richest dude in the world means everything goes through a PR filter. Suggesting you know anything at all about their marriage is idiotic.

I say this as someone with no love for Bezos or Amazon. The assumption that you know something because you've read tabloids is a big reason the world is fucked right now
exactly. it's almost a catch 22. most great jobs are in the cities, because all of the great talent is mostly located in urban areas, and all of the great talent is mostly located in urban areas because all of the great jobs are there.

and the extreme prices are just a natural byproduct of supply/demand.
No, he didn't.

He expressed an opinion as single individual person, he didn't ask for support or rioting against someone or something.

And he didn't ask for nobody to be fired in the first place.

> and that's why people are pissed at him

No, they are pissed because people suck.

They've been also pissed at Terry Davis, another troubled man (more troubled than RMS for sure), that didn't harm anybody in his life, except himself.
I am the parent and its not what i wrote. I would recommend reading it again.

Others gave good answers. I just want to emphasize that your progress will greatly depends on inter talent (which you can't influence), passion and discipline (which you can influence to a degree) and methodology (which you can influence even more).

View points on methodology:
1) Read more than you write. There is excellent code out there. By reading it, you learn to think like an experienced programmer.
2) Hands on > Books. The best approach is to pick an project and program away. Problems will arise naturally (How do I print something to the command line? How can I store data in a list? How can I search an element in a list? ...), which is the best time to look up the solution.
3) Mentors are invaluable. If you live in a big city, there will be programming meetups. If personal contact is not possible, try to see somebody online.

All the best!

That's the answer for me.

The problem in those cases always the abuse of often obsolete OOP patterns and misnamed classes.
Most solar companies I know of do removal fees of some kind. Costs of operating past a certain point in the installation process make a fee-free cancellation a risky thing.

Beyond Tesla's rental I'd also like to see combinations of financing and service / upgrade & optimization contracts. Power usage, and optimal tech changes over time. Most solar installation contracts are inflexible to modification over time. This is mostly due to the single transactional nature between financing companies and installers.
The problem with small towns is, and will always be, the lack of opportunity for most people.

Most jobs in these places tend towards service jobs. You can't just move to Columbia. MO and expect to find a professional job. The best way to earn a good living in these areas is to own a business, which is not really feasible for most people. Once these rural towns have a critical mass of businesses to support an influx of professionals, they begin to evolve from small town to suburbia.

I say this as someone who was raised in a town of 515 people, 45-minutes from the closest Walmart. There was nothing there when I left, and that fact has remained over the past 20 years. Why would anyone move to that small town over the hundreds of identical ones all over the state?
The article said there was no misogyny. My comment also said that. No one is arguing that people were being driven by misogyny.
I think it is closer to the truth to say that gender is a social construct in the same way language is a social construct. The Universal Grammar Theory[0], pioneered by Noam Chomsky, gives evidence that language arises from a biological predisposition that is cross-cultural. The social construct arises from the biological construct.

No, they spoke publicly, and paid the (unfortunate) consequences of the day ... but they carried on because it was the right thing to do.

What exactly is it that we're trying to "express ourselves" about here? what "progress" are we trying to make on old men having sex with young girls?

If there's change to be made, then someone is going to have to weather the cultural storm that speaking out about it brings in order to bring change. If it's not worth weathering that storm, then maybe it's not worth having that discussion in the first place.

Um, no? An iPhone needs to be plugged into a computer initially to enable wireless connectivity with iTunes.

Furthermore, I like to charge my phone with my laptop, quite a bit.
