> pattern of behaviour over years

Let's say I found 10 times over two decades where you did something inappropriate (I think the average person would be a saint if this was the number of times they erred in two decades) and put them all into a single article. Would that mean you have a "pattern of behavior"? It would certainly present as one. Or merely that you are human and occasionally say or do dumb, inappropriate things? It seems at this case that all of the "pattern of behavior" was speech in this case, and not particularly egregious in any instance.
Yeah. It's the custom serialisation & schema/ctor arg validation that makes it clunky.
I will ignore how untrue that is for now and tell me why is it the same situation in university CS/engineering courses too then, 99% is men? Tech doesn't even make as much money as other industries such as sales/recruitment so doing it only for the money is not a valid point
>> Then why don't you?

Free shipping! For me this is what keeps me coming back. Just two days ago I needed to get hair color for my wife. Went to the Target site. A nickel a box cheaper. I couldn't get the order up to their minimum for free shipping so I ended up back at Amazon and clicked the buy button. Again.

I watch my pennies pretty carefully because my household isn't very wealthy. I purchase where the price is best. When I factor in shipping "best" is still mostly Amazon.
> and even if it can be considered a regrettable opinion, nobody should face any consequence for having it.

I think this is the crux of the difference here. I don't think that expressing opinions should never have any consequences whatsoever. That's an absurd proposition to me. Maybe that's why I seem to be talking past people about this.
normal fuses (in the fusebox) still have to be 16A (B or C class), the main fuse can be anything 32-50A or even tri-phase 50A.

>ring circuits up to 100m, cookers and electric showers up to 7200W

Normally those tend to be 3phases.

Of course it's possible to get over 16A on a single phase and a circuit breaker but that's quite a non-standard option. The issue is that if the fuse/circuit breaker is rated for 32A in a standard application (i.e. an outlet) the cables are likely to burn 1st.

Not really. I still try to mostly buy at brick and mortar stores. Especially when it comes to books.

While Amazon may be cheaper I moan for independent book sellers going bust, because they just can't match the prices, let alone the cost structure of the behemoth. And I think they provide a valuable cultural service, which Amazon couldn't care less about.

>nefarious purposes, including human trafficking, and drug trafficking.

I'm sorry for this comment, but I really hate how this article lumps together drugs with child, human traficking.

Big Pharma spends millions lobbying to keep marijuana prohibition a thing so they can protect their profits. Not because they are altruists. Insulin is expensive in the US because of a crony government-corporate racket. Profit is the motive here.

At least thankfully there are some things which are so repulsive that we can't allow it. Human misery and death apparently doesn't always cross that line, but at least we prosecute and investigate child predators. I guess unless they're Jeffrey Epstein--then somehow it's still hard to see that through without him being suicided. Such a clown world with so many garbage people.
you know the basic working principle of Linux-Namespaces? And Iirc the JS-intepreter is not spawning a subprocess with a communication pipe for each require? So good luck with your "easy implementation" - you could also just create a standard library/make PRs removing unnecessary cruft from existing high-level packages.

And if you think creating an interpreter in the interpreter is the solution, I'm quite sure the thing will not be secure if it is a natural child of the JS ecosystem.

While I do agree with you for the most part, theres a few things I think are worth taking away.

First, there's no harm in the fact that we need to plant more trees. Would we ever achieve the amount needed as stated here? Hell no. But it at least shows we do need to be serious and replant trees.

Edit: For the most part there's no harm in planting trees as long as they're appropriate for the ecosystem, both type and density. One thing the article doesn't talk about, an Amazon forest can be denser per acre while a pacific northwest forest has to be thinner. Due to both pests and wildfire management. I also figure soil fertility too, but I don't have the data for that one.

I think the most valuable take away, the amount of trees needed is a good way to visualize the extent of the problem. Mentioning that we pump however many billion pounds of, essentially "smoke", is meaningless to most people. To be fair, it's hard to wrap your head around the weight of a gas for 80% of the population, let alone how much is bad.

But 80% of people can understand, we fucked so bad, we need to plant an extra 1 trillion plus trees to start fixing those problems. That's somewhat easier to understand. It's just more tangible for people to think about. Super accurate, no. But it's more about getting people's head around the problem to understand the extent of work needed.

"Wow, 1 trillion trees. That's a lot. Is there anything we can do that's easier, but can lower that by 1 billion trees?"

"Why yes, we can do..."

"What else can we do so we don't have to plant another 1 billion?"

> No actually I think I can make it clearer. Here's Stallman himself summarizing his own words

That is not making it clearer. First, I was interested in how you interpreted the quote you used as you did. This doesn't make it clearer. Secondly, I don't know if the quote you are using now is referencing the firs quote or something else. I suspect that you do not either.

Also it seems that you have some axe to grind against the man. Here is the full quote:

>> Many years ago I posted that I could not see anything wrong about sex between an adult and a child, if the child accepted it.

>> Through personal conversations in recent years, I've learned to understand how sex with a child can harm per psychologically. This changed my mind about the matter: I think adults should not do that. I am grateful for the conversations that enabled me to understand why.

> In those words he was saying that in some cases there is nothing wrong with an adult having sex with a child.

We are not talking about those words, are we?
The problem with this is that one of the best way to learn real lessons that stick in this line of work is to do it the hard way first. Being told you’re doing it the hard way and never learning firsthand why is no kind of lesson.

> If I make a mistake at work and people are aware of it I am afraid that it reflects negatively on me more than the good things I do reflect positively.

This happens all the time. Though making mistakes are parts of getting experience.

> That fear of making mistakes makes it difficult to appreciate constructive criticism. I do appreciate it on an intellectual level but on an emotional level I feel more fear than appreciation. That the risk is that making any mistake could cost me my livelihood

Past experiences might drive you to feel this. Take a step back. See things objectively. Stop being paranoid.

I felt this way months ago. Then I looked around, things will be more fragile if I'm not there to support it, therefore I'm important.

I continued moving, making calculated mistakes, so are those who work with me. I progress, perfect myself, and so can you.

Absolutely! I'm surprised you're the first one to call this out.

In my mind this is how these companies see their platforms plucked from their hands and spun off as independent companies.

This is incredibly unfair to users. It's a sign that these platforms have become a mafia protection racket.

It's not just as if they're saying "If you consider the competition, you'll lose everything." They're actually doing this.

Wow.
Every now and then there are these news, where platform owners "abuse" their power on the platform to do something in their favor. I remember an example where HN discussed about how "Amazon's choice" doesn't mean that it's a good product, it's likely just a product which generates a lot of revenue for amazon.

It should be of no surprise that plaform owners will behave in this way. I think the way forward should be protocols over platforms. ActivityPub over social networks. Matrix over instant messengers.

Protocols are empowering. In the earlier days of the web there were many different protocols for different things people wanted to do, such as SMTP, FTP, HTTP etc.
I didn't say it was bad. But women who work tend to do all of this and want to maintain that lifestyle which is clearly ridiculous to do on a single income with children.
A lot of good advice here already. Here's something which may be a factor in your thinking. This is what I've observed since I moved to industry post-PhD:
A PhD helps one gain scientific maturity simply by giving one full 'make-or-break' ownership of a project. In industry, it is very rare, especially for a junior person, to completely own a difficult and complicated project, in a way that it just won't get done right if they don't do it right. And maybe after the first successful project, you look for a new one, that experience will add to your scientific maturity as well.
Food is relatively accessible in the US for everyone but there are of course difficulties for people who need help knowing about the resources available to them or practical difficulties in taking advantage of those resources (lack of transportation, scheduling difficulties with children or one or more jobs, etc.)

> I'm not going to entertain any more ideas of "users are stupid and therefore cannot figure out an Ubuntu installation". It's extremely simple and I don't have that little faith in the average person. It's not hard, and I'd appreciate it if we dropped this stupid argument once and for all. It's defeatist and false.

Realistically the "average user" has better things to do than to install Ubuntu or another OS these days just to get work done. It's even better for Windows users thanks to WSL which gives them less of a reason to switch to a Linux distro or even to buy a Chromebook. Android is a good example of what the mess of the Linux distros should have been but for mobile.

> In the last 10 years? This is no longer a problem.

Well you brought up an anecdote about Windows as so did I for Linux. But as with both graphics cards and their drivers, this is still an eternal issue on the majority of Linux distros, especially those who keep using NVIDIA and Intel.

> The "average user" doesn't care. They want to read Facebook. See my previous comment.

Exactly. Why should the "average user" bother with all that trouble in switching/migrating if Windows / Mac users have everything Linux has to offer but with a sainer environment and established support and ecosystem.

I said Stallman was an equal opportunity autistic asshole rather than a sexual predator. You impugned my social skills.

I never said people felt threatened by autistic people. They’re disgusted. Just like fat or ugly people. People aren’t creeped out by scary, violent men, they’re afraid of them. Being creeped out is about disgust, not fear.

I have no comment about society because that’s every individual’s own problem, just like being fat or ugly. No one except maybe your family and friends care, so deal with it or suffer or deal with it and suffer. But don’t sugar coat it and pretend things are ok and people are nice. This is a fallen world and if you find your way into a pleasant part it’s through continuous, vigourous effort.

I mean of course words have consequences. Denying it is just absurd. If an employee of yours regularly expresses his opinion that your children are sexy and he'd like to have sex with them, what would you do about it that does not in any way discourage him from expressing his opinion? Surely you can't reprimand him or fire him.

Or an employee that regularly talks publicly about how horrible your company is and that no one should work there. Can't discourage any expression of opinion, so what can you do?

Actually scientists are still grappling with how the sense of smell works.

Two basic observations about smell combine to make it hard to explain. Firstly, it is more or less instantaneous. Secondly, we can discern new smells, even smells that did not exist before. Now, we know biological receptors that are very fast (tastebuds, say) but they can typically detect only a few, fixed sensations. And we know biological systems that can learn new stuff but they are relatively slow: the immune system, for instance, takes hours to days to learn to recognize something new.

Here is "smell professor" Luca Turin explaining his theory: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzOcvINn8Iw
It sounds to me like you have a real passion for building things. That more than anything else (including a Phd) will determine if you land an interesting job. Remember that coders are hired on merit not accolades (well, supposedly, modulo whiteboard interviewing and other such pleasantries).

Your field of study is interesting to me. Have you thought about a cross-discipline PhD (more than one way to skin a cat)? Can you build a frontend that would look interesting to someone in philosophy or economics (or pick any other field)? You will not do yourself any favors by committing to several years of what you perceive right now as hellish. Don't worry about what you would gain in academia.

I worked for Luma when they were having a review war with Eero.

We had an inferior product with a lot of problems, so it was a losing battle in the end.

Probably the most interesting part is that Amazon was one of our lead investors. We came to them for help, and they told us in a wink wink nudge nudge sort of way that our only option was to just keep buying positive reviews.

I wouldn't be "surprised" that somebody wants better instance CM. I also don't care and I can't particularly fault the Pulumi folks for putting it on the back burner too; as each of the major instance CM providers are in the process of demonstrating, it doesn't make money and is being eaten by a container-centric and pervasively disposable approach.t I've stopped caring about machines enough to write even a systemd unit file and it's a better world to live in.

You can write instance CM yourself, I'd you want. Pulumi isn't a "cloud thing", it's a lifecycle management tool. But it's typed, and that absolves it of many, many sins given the incredibly positive surface it presents to a developer.
