There's certainly a moral component to any debate about sex, rape, consent, statutory rape etc (see eg the difference in age of consent - even within the US) - not to mention the long tail of discrimination against homosexuality etc.

I still don't think commercialization of intimate relationships with its influence in the private sphere of buyer and seller is on equal footing to "dangerous" work.

So somewhat above (physical) health risk, I think there's a social component - that legalizing prostitution contributes to locking women into an antiquated and restricting role in society.

If and when our societies were more equal, I'm not so certain I'd be opposed to legalization - but I also suspect in a more equal society there'd be less of a demand.

And certainly, poverty as a means of segregating the working class and distracting from the fact that wages are at a record low share of production contributes to the concept that a "right" to sex work is important in defense of the poor - rather than saying that society should make sure everyone have a place to stay and access to decent food.

I'm also aware of the old Soviet saying: Under capitalism, man exploits man - but under socialism it's the other way around.

A nominal system change without deep cultural reform won't be enough.

And I suppose that's the core of the problem; that some people argue that the right to have sex for money is some kind of important freedom. While food and shelter isn't.

And that there's an objective need for men (because in aggregate that is who's buying sex) to buy sex - because somehow regular relationships and masturbation isn't enough to keep our society going.

It's something I find strange, and I've yet to see a compelling argument for why it's something that our societies need.
Or did they take the comedy-writer apprenticeship spot from a more-deserving/less fortunate person?
Yes, though more the other way around: part of json's appeal (on purpose) is that it covers the core subtypes of most dynamically typed programming languages (strings, number, booleans, arrays and maps), so moving data to and from json is straightforward and convenient.
You can try rclone, it's a command line tool though and you have to invoke it manually. I've been using to back up my photos to google drive and so far seems to work. I can even leave it running and close my laptop, next time it just continues like nothing happened.
What part or letter of the word "beta" don't you understand? Can't you just not use the functionality until the company says that it is complete? There is plenty of other functionality in a Tesla car, why not use that?
You're right. Most people "get away" with all this crap.

My take on this is that I can't miss what I never had. Knowing myself, once I get used to some convenient tech it's hard to go back. I got my first smartphone only two years ago and even then consciously restricted my usage by basically just using it like my old phone plus email and a browser. No WhatsApp, no cloud services, no voice assistant.

And every now and then when visiting a friend or colleague I'm amazed to see what's actually possible with modern tech if you fully embrace it. So I just fiddle around a bit out of curiosity and that's it.
I wouldn't say abandoned, it states in the README:

Maintenance note: This repo is stable but no longer actively maintained. No further development is planned, and no new feature PRs will be merged. Bug fixes may be merged on a volunteer basis.

With JSON being an unchanging spec this makes sense.
And so if a person accidentally drops their phone the car eventually stops when it meets an unmovable object? Is this correct?
"Honestly I think the fixation on the Epstein comments is unhelpful for understanding what's happened here."

The comments were misquoted and RMS fans believe that this is the sole reason for him being fired and are outraged.
Fun article. This Shaw guy is a real character!

I suppose the author is criticizing him, but I ended up liking Shaw from the article.
I'm curious do you really think it's no different - or do you think it's no different for her?

Would you consider cleaning toilets and prostitution for supporting yourself as "no different"?
On the other hand, nlohmann/json has a cleaner and more Python-like API, so if you don't care about performance that much, I'd say it's the way to go
But what about copyright laws of countries outside the US?
Just wanted to post this from my bookmarks with Gatsby trending recently.

Next.js and Gatsby are just overkill (and over-engineered) for a simple static blog. Stick with Jekyll / Hugo / Zola / etc for blogging.

As usual, keep it simple and pick the right tool for your project.
> DevOps is Ops with new tools. I went to DevOpsDays thinking DevOps means developers and operations merged into one team. I was wrong.

Nope, he was right. DevOps is all and only about removing the wall between Dev and Ops. That might go as far as merging the team, but not necessarily.

However, the conference is _dead wrong_ is they convey the feeling that "DevOps is Ops with new tools". That's akin to putting lipstick on a pig, and does DevOps as an organization tool a lot of wrong (just like Agile, etc.).
Even if he did not dare to ask him to leave directly, because he is a weak coward, then this still makes RMS an asshole for not caring about the unwillingnes of his host.
The radio chip may be on the SoC, but not the Antenna.
This still sounds US related? E.g. many European states will give you a no-questions-asked loan to cover both (reasonable) tuition fees and your living expenses.

When access to education is considered an actual right, living expenses tend to be included in the conversation (as you just pointed out). Unlike merely incidentally affordable education.
Completely useless news article. How many people are working there? If one person has problems with their mental health that is tragic for the family, but not worth a news article.

If there were widespread issues with working climate at FB that might be worth an article. Like it was for Foxconn a couple of years ago. Given the fact that many higher educated / high income people (in my country) have left FB, I would not be too surprised if the working climate were not very positive there. But that would require a different article.

He didn't want to get his kids into a college which is very easy. He didn't want them to get into an a college with exceptional teaching and high standards either, given how academically high performing his kids seem to be they could easily have gotten into any second-tier university which have basically the same standard of teaching (especially if you know how to look for / ask for it) but not the same kind of prestige.
Taking move fast and break things to the next level
I kind of understand this decision. Users forget their account password and lock themselves out. Then they complain about Windows loosing all their data. With an online account they can reset their password via mail, etc.

There definitely should be an option to encrypt it like the in the pro version, but then you could also just buy the pro version (then you can also disable auto-updates...). It's not really expensive in the EU.
That explains it then. Time to move house.
Yes, because before he was scared of being finished by the hordes of RMS, for citicicing their idol.

So yes, a weak person, but it is still telling, that now so many speak up who did not dare to do so before.
Weak and pathetic? Maybe yes. But still telling about RMS.
At least on iOS - whatsapp doesn't seem to nag about backups (i don't think i've ever enabled it), but you can do a local backup/restore if you replace handset. Signal encrypts your chats locally (but not binary blobs/video/images) but they cannot be backed up and restored locally.
Would she have done that without the app though? Pre app did she send out daily itemised emails to all the parents?

I'm not even criticising the toilet break thing per se, just the entire concept of breaking down a kids day into little +1s and -1s. As a parent I want to know if he learnt anything, whether he enjoyed himself, that he was well behaved. A score of X doesn't help with any of those.
The comment you’re replying to is talking about their non-Tesla being hit by a Tesla operated by somebody else. How do we force other drivers to not use this feature? What if it wasn’t released until it’s less likely to collide with other people’s property
Let's start calling this what it really is.

Evil pattern.
You don't have to be forced to sell. You could live in it until you die at which point the sale is forced and the taxes are paid.

This can be done by borrowing against the house from a financial institution or we can have the government place just place liens on the property if you can't pay.
Now the v2.0.0 version support print server logs in Chrome Console, based on extension installed.
Trust in the OS made by Google/Apple is slightly different from trust in the ability of Google/Apple to keep your data stored on their servers secure against nation states.

I have much more trust in the former than the latter.
Well, they have to compete with ChromeOS, I guess... Currently they allow you to exit S mode to a normal Home edition.
That does sound like a significant drawback to wide spread outdoors adoption, and some indoor areas too.

I got a related question: how well do you manage a good work/life/doing-good balance?

- working on something interesting

- working to earn money

- working on something for greater good

- having time to rest, learn and for my partner, friends and family (for me that means having to work less than 5 days/week)

I managed to get to a 4 day work week. Though I'm now not sure If I can keep that privileged while changing jobs (as a product manager, or anyone with "lead" or "manager" in the title it seems harder to get this from the get go).
Yes, they come and go, by their own decision. For promotions, bigger salaries and other reasons. How many executives were actually fired for underperforming? What is even underperforming for that type of job?
When someone say 'mobile app' I assume it's IOS and Android, I'm often wrong. Would it be too hard to prefix 'app' with the platform?

Most people won't use it everyday. However, maybe it's raining outside and you don't have an umbrella. Or you got a shopping trolley full of stuff. Or the spot is so tight, it's easier to get into your car after it pulls out.
The Public road is not a beta testing ground.

Most business jets today operate without an air hostess and some of them use only 1 pilot. I think the FAA limit for that is around 9 passengers. But you are right that that kind of cost is going to be dominating the overall cost.
Hi guys,
Releasly is a new side project I created to notify me on new open-source version releases. You can decide the release type you want, and the notification interval.

Looking to hear your thoughts :)

+1, that's what I'm doing.

iMac for everything, including development and music production; Windows and Linux virtualised and resumable in a few seconds if needed.
No, if you release the button it'll stop (barring some kind of fault). It will also stop before hitting anything (again, barring some kind of fault).

It's not ready, though. The Tesla might not technically have been at fault in this clip, but driving is full of situations where one party makes a mistake, and another takes corrective action to prevent an accident.

A self driving system that is never "at fault" but crashes regularly into drivers that are at fault is not good enough. It needs to drive defensively.

The timing of this release is suspiciously close to the end of Q3. It concerns me that this was rushed out the door early to recognize some revenue.

Seems like you have to keep pushing a button, so it should stop as soon as the phone is let go.
Thank you for creating Leaflet!
Has anyone tried implementing DOS attacks on ad providers with the intention of making them block all traffic from your IP? Are these requests signed?
Oh, good story here. There's an e-reader called Tolino which is somewhat popular here in Germany. You can use it to subscribe to your local library for a monthly fee and rent books.

Recently an old friend crashed on my couch for a week, bringing such a device. He couldn't download any new books from the library while staying. On the last day of his stay we didn't have anything better to do so we researched that problem. After some googling we actually found a long thread in some forum where people had all kinds of problems with a recent firmware update which didn't actually seem to be the problem here, but then there was some guy in this thread casually mentioning that he solved it by disabling his pi-hole. And yes, indeed, that immediately fixed the problem in our case too.

Let that stink in: You pay for your e-reader. You pay a monthly subscription. And then they dare to require you to send your data to googleanalytics.com, a foreign company, and don't even show a meaningful error message if that doesn't work (too embarrassed?)
Is there an available Pro update for arm64? Heck, I couldn't even find an install image for the version I have, and for some reason, Windows reset doesn't work, so I hope Windows won't hose itself ever on that machine, because it will then be a brick.
I have never met a truly rational person. I have met lots of people who claim they are rational but clearly aren't.

I like the Tesla cars and definitely thinking of getting one but the self driving stuff, I'll let that age for a decade or two.
I highly recommend Kerbal Space Program for anyone interested in getting a feel for orbital mechanics. Please buy this game for any young people in your life.
Yep. And that's exactly where it should be. It's insane that we have to prove the same things at every interview when certification already proves these things.

If all you want is a plumber with a certain skill set, then hire a union plumber with certification.
Is is, just add `termux` and install whatever packages you want. That won't help those who want to install Sailfish or Ubuntu or their very own mobile Linux creation or whatever other option they might contemplate. For those applications it makes sense to get a device which is open to this type of tinkering.
Yes, that was my intent anyway. I’m sure different people read that differently.
The picture from the side of one of the lagoons at the New York World’s Fair on July 7, 1939 is really beautiful.
Well, at least the DevOps industry brings actual value to the process (well, not when you are sold OpenStack, OpenShift, Vault and whatever else to run a single container image).
That is a fair point. My main idea was that the questions make sense in context. The ‘you’ in my message should be read as a generic you.
Slide 23 hides code in Firefox whereas in Chromium works as expected. Also footer notes or links are extremely tiny that cannot be read.

Other than that, an amazing presentation. Kudos +1
And MS as a company would probably be just fine with that. They could even port Office to Linux then. 70+% of Azure is Linux already, so Windows is rapidly becoming a costly liability in Azure. Office customers are captive, it's not like there's anything else available that could compete anyway, so they'll tolerate a lot of abuse. Until there's a realistic prospect of losing significant revenue, MS isn't going to give a shit. It's (tactically, but not strategically) the right thing to do. Win 10 with minor tweaks is going to easily last another decade or more. Who cares if Mac is better: LOB apps don't run there anyway.
True! I have the impression that Tesla is trying to "innovate" itself out of the corner they are finding themselves in. Already said multiple times, but there are valid reasons why the automotive sector is working the way it is. Sure, as everywhere a lot of stuff is just there because it was always there. Go ahead and brake that. But understand first which ones can be ignored and which ones not.

Kind of worked for SpaceX by ignoring all the political bullshit in aerospace. I'm slowly wondering whether that was luck or intention, so.

Just how the latest Tesla features ever became road legal is beyond my understanding so.
I know someone who smoked a pack her day her whole life, and died at 90 while remaining in good health for the age the decade before.

I know someone who never smoked in his life and got lung cancer at 52.

Does that mean anything? Should we now conclude that smoking prevents lung cancer?

Quality of life, health, remaining lifetime, sickness progressions are all very complex interactions. All you can do is what happens on average, and play the odds based on that.
The wiki is a GitHub thing and will not be included in your git clone.

I personally prefer a doc/ folder with RST files in it. That's what the Linux kernel does.
So you are fine with beta testing safety relevant features in the wild which could harm, injure and even kill people? You know that cars are not some app?
In the future, totalitarianism will be gamified.
Congestion issues are easily addressed because small electrical planes don't need huge runways and produce a lot less noise. I'm not sure if the Eviation Alice is rated for grass landings but it would not surprise me that this was possible. There are close to a hundred GA airports all over California; more if you include all the grass and dirt strips.

Additionally, you could build dozens to hundreds of airstrips in and around big cities. The Eviation Alice still takes off horizontally. But there are plenty of vtol designs out there as well.

The real issue is going to be upgrading ATC to deal with thousands of vehicles flying at the same time. Current operations with it's roots in analog technology from mid last century is just not going to scale for that.

Biology is at a severe disadvantage when it comes to using electricity.

For an electric circuit, you need both conductors and insulators. The best conductors are metals and superconductors. Metals are very hard for biological processes to deposit, and superconductors require super cold temperatures incompatible with biology.

Insulators are also very hard for biology, because most biological processes involve water, and water is a pretty bad insulator since it dissolves ions so readily.

Considering all that, it's amazing how much use of electricity biology manages!
The fact that instructions are even required shows how poor the state of c++ packaging is.
It was a guess. And not an entirely implausible one.

Yes, apparently some people have an extremely emotional reaction to seeing the word "willing" anywhere near the topic of sexual exploitation, but that's not a good enough reason to break out the torches full-on. Especially in an academic environment (where people are supposed to be able to think first).

For folks who don't know what Type 1 and 2 errors mean:

> In statistical hypothesis testing a type I error is the rejection of a true null hypothesis (also known as a "false positive" finding or conclusion), while a type II error is the non-rejection of a false null hypothesis (also known as a "false negative" finding or conclusion). Much of statistical theory revolves around the minimization of one or both of these errors, though the complete elimination of either is treated as a statistical impossibility.

I searched through your comment history for the "Java schools rant" but to no avail. Pointer?

Even with education loans, some people can't afford it, because they have to support the family financially now and you lose that opportunity when you're at university.
I got some printed marketing material at a trade show last week. Screenshot of grey sub-pixel text, enlarged and printed in CMYK onto flyers.

You don't seem to have learned the lesson at all.

The whole point is CYA doesn't work. Its not trying to make it idiot proof, it's trying to remove the idiot from being involved at all.
What you are saying goes against the science. The commonly accepted facts are that the prevalence or absence of glucose does not affect cancer cells' ability to grow.

https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/cancer/in-dep...

Not a scientist, so can't chime in meaningfully, but you are perpetuating what is considered a myth, and very nonchalantly ("undergraduate studies two decades back"), leading me to question if you are qualified to hold such a contrarian viewpoint.
Zero mention as to where the part was manufactured...

I was surprised to find that a lot of information is found online. However, there's no specific mention of "pickle fork" here: http://www.airframer.com/aircraft_detail.html?model=B737#Air...

I'm not an engineer, but it looks like Magellan Aerospace Kitchener (ON, Canada) built Wing Components and Spirit Aerosystems (Wichita, Kansas, USA) built Wing Spars and the Front Fuselage. Could have been either one of those.

My guess is it's Spirit as it's mentioned in the notes they build 75% of the airframe in total.
Event modeling and domain driven design go hand-in-hand, and learning both was a huge turning point in my development career. It helps align software to the business, and technical to non technical staff in a way where everyone speaks the same ubiquitous language (when a user registers) more than other approaches (rest - when I POST a user, crud - when I create a user).

It took me a few books and a couple of projects before the penny dropped, but now everything else seems disorganised and difficult to keep a lid on complexity as projects grow.

If your in Nodejs/typescript land and wanting to get started with DDD and eventing like the article, there's:

https://github.com/node-ts/ddd - basics for domain modelling, read/write repositories, aggregates/roots

https://node-ts.github.io/bus/ - event/command service bus, supports workflows/sagas, queue technology agnostic (runs over sqs, rabbitmq etc)
And China is far more modern than US in many respects:

- a country wide network of high speed railroads in a country larger than the US

- many more EVs manufactured and in use

- worlds largest manufacturer and consumer of solar power

- essentially cashless socity. Smartphone usuable for every transaction
I lost my mind at this sentence. If feels like a first-class data type because the result of parsing is one of the built-in data types (which can be round-tripped to a similar JSON string). And as soon as you care about serialisation of types it starts feeling incredibly clunky.
