This seems like a sizeable change.
Utah. UTA has a pretty poor reputation when it comes to its administration. Overpaid executives who like to spend lavishly on international travel, and a history of shady deals with real estate developers.

Despite all that, we really have a pretty decent transit system for the metro size. I have reliable 15 minute service to downtown and it only takes me twice as long to take the bus to work than it takes me to drive.
Well both really. In my part of the developing world it was the Hilux. The LN106 and then LN166 (the last to be built in Japan) were awesome and ubiquitous. Quality seems to have declined (anecdotally) after they started making them in Thailand, but then worse... they started filing them up with fancy electronics to target urban dwellers.
If that v86_64 thing works the way I think it does, it is not really an acceptable way to do this. If you drop the CPU down from long mode to legacy mode and get an NMI, either you are toast or you have some extremely complicated awful code to handle it. Not to mention that the CPU can’t even address all of physical memory when you do this.

Just don’t go there. Use an emulator for DOS code and use the normal kernel support (modify_ldt()) for 16-bit protected mode.
Probably fewer than 10% of Harvard graduates could tell you anything substantive about Millard Fillmore’s presidency. He isn’t covered here either.
“pollutes discourse by elevating an illegitimate side”-- What if they don't consider it being illegitimate?

I don't think "bothsideism" exist, the act itself is just a cover up for political opinions. What the accusation of "bothsideism" is actually saying is "you are actually not neutral, but biased". But SP never claimed to be a political neutral medium. It is just some opinionated comedy series that some people enjoys.
However you want to define progressive, its certainly not progressive to have skyrocketing 4k+ USD a month rents and groups making it essentially impossible to build more housing.
Well even if having the resources of the largest colonial empire in history wasn't enough to allow the UK to win a war in 1938, what about in 1933? 1934? 1935-37? When the Germans seized the Rhineland in '36 they could have been easily steamrolled by a French-British alliance and that would have been the end of Nazi Germany then and there. Nazi Germany was only able to become the juggernaut it was because of the years of appeasement leading up to that point and I think we can agree by the time they became an apparent threat it was already too late. What I'm saying is if the parallel holds with China today, we are barreling towards 1938 at alarming speed and this time I don't think the world can afford to be wrong again.
OK, that makes sense.

So how would one block this exploit? You can't test the malware properly without letting it reach its servers. So then you're also letting it upload its exfiltrated data. Which would likely be encrypted.

You can also vote with your application of skill. Don't build products using crippled software for people with lots of money. They sure as hell aren't going to build it themselves.
Security from the things that the violations of privacy are meant to stop is already a right. Most governments hold that children have the right to not be molested.

It’s the governments duty to uphold that right whether they can read communications or not. A right to security absolutely does not mean no right to privacy. That’s a false dichotomy.
Of course you doubt it Jeff, that’s why you don’t see it coming.
Their portrayal of Scientology got Chef to quit. And the chickenshits at Comedy Central will never again air the episodes featuring Mohammed. But otherwise I don't think anyone cares all that much.
Huh? Hawaii is a part of the United States?

To the point that the last US president is from there.
I could see that causing a huge poo-storm. If our supply chains collapse and all this knowledge is lost... but, we know when and where the knowledge will be returned to the Earth.... then that location is going to be ground zero for a lot of turmoil. Everyone will know that whoever gets that returned knowledge will have dominion.

It moved my Anaconda installation to a relocated folder with all the envs gone. So I had to reinstall it and recreate all my envs. Also had to reinstall Xcode because git stopped working.
It would be a good improvement. I'll try to check the source to see how it's done
Ah, thank you guys for posting this.

I'll hold off too. My macbook pro is 2013 and pretty old it overheat often if I play video. This update will definatedly exacerbate the problem.
It'd take a lot of crickets to make up one cow's worth of meat... but I don't think crickets experience anything like what we would call pain. So the correct answer may lie at the opposite end of the spectrum.

It doesn't work correctly, no. Apple stopped allowing signed Nvidia drivers starting with Mohave and the drivers from Apple for the device are buggy and cause issues.
> Plenty of people in major cities across the globe are fighting for free mass transit.

I never understood why. This study from Talinn, Estonia[1] shows that the overall impact on passenger numbers was very small (+1.2% increase) and that most of it is due to a decrease in pedestrian traffic and bicycle use.

> And if you reverse the situation, and imagine a city with free public transit that is then considering adding a fare to it, said fare would be extremely regressive and would hit the worst off the hardest.

Personally, I believe that cash transfers are more ethical and less paternalistic than in-kind benefits, but if you want, you can still give poor people a high discount on public transport or simply limit free public transport to poor people.

It's pretty comical in Maine as well, where there are a plethora of Native American place names, as well as a whole host of towns with well-known European city names, but wildly different pronunciations.
I dived (dove?) into Catalina on day 1, the very first developer beta, because of SwiftUI.

It's an amazing framework. Sure Flutter and others came first and already did parts of what SwiftUI+Combine do, but being able to take an app from design mockups -> interactive prototype -> final version right in the same editor and using the same language for UI, logic and model (with native APIs and look-and-feel) is something I've fantasized about since forever.

There are many rough edges (just like Swift itself which took like 3 years to become good enough for "serious" use), you still need AppKit/UIKit for some things, and Apple's developer documentation remains appalling as ever, but I was able to turn a bunch of ideas into usable apps in a matter of hours, that traditional frameworks would have taken me weeks to do.

I hadn't even planned or expected to make "proper" apps with it, I was just playing around, iteratively adding to mockups, and boom, there was an actual app on device.

Catalina itself however was the buggiest macOS beta for me. I permanently lost random files on iCloud Drive, CPU and network usage was always high, and I had to use a temporary local user account that was not tied to iCloud to avoid messing things up.

And it's annoying that they still haven't fixed some minor bugs I reported since the Mojave beta, like unreadable white text on brightly colored tags in Dark Mode and Books jumping around between desktops on its own (the kind of stuff that would have infuriated Steve Jobs I assume but is deemed unimportant now.)
As a Venezuelan I disagree, I can tell you that the people here dream of the day when a US military intervention takes place and the US(or really anyone not communist) take the country.
Even software emulation would be nice.
If this were in any way true then China would have conquered the entire world long ago.

No military or nation is invincible including China or the U.S.
Was speaking about this issue specifically, but I'd be interested in hearing your arguments for the opposite side.

From Apple's historically more oppressive stance against freedom of expression in their own wallet garden, and the recent actions against the HK protest movement ("legitimate" app ban, the present article), my opinion is that Apple is a less ethical choice than Android which is more permissive and respectful of user freedom.
it's adorable how you call it "braggy PR" when almost every major technology company these days (FB, Google, Amazon, Uber, Pinterest, etc., pretty much everybody except Apple) has an engineering blog where they share possibly-interesting work they've done.
> I was just calling out the parent for saying ISIS didn't use terrorism as a tactic.

Where did they say this? I don't see anything about ISIS not using terrorism as a tactic, just that if you recognize ISIS as a state, you get called a terrorist sympathizer. Besides, plenty of countries use terrorist tactics when at war, unfortunately.
Nobody gives a crap what Trump or Obama feels about it, it's in the cultural domain and it's none of their business
Will have to look over these more carefully, but your post reminded me that there is a potential 3rd candidate which is FORTH, but it seems like it might be just a bit too bare bones in some cases. Maybe with an accepted standard library or something it could work.
Yeah I totally agree, it's impossible to accurately split out all of the consequences of merely existing in a society, especially a global one like ours. Ooh, I walked on a street paid for by federal funding, am I now guilty of supporting the Bay of Pigs?

It's insane. The Native American example was just the first one that came to my mind that demonstrates that the "average" American of today does indeed benefit from atrocities committed hundreds of years ago.

Though I don't think it's a boolean, "Well you did it, you made up for the damage your ancestors caused" situation, but more of a, "Well now we are better equipped than we were before to handle the fallout of the damage your ancestors caused". And it's not just money (though money does fund everything), there's a lot more that the US government could be doing for the Native American people. Am I a bad person for not doing more? No. Could I probably do a bit more to help? Yeah.
Designing robust and predictable APIs with idempotency (2017)
1. Germany was preparing for outright war throughout the 1930s. Conscription was introduced in 1935.Is China seriously planning to militarily annex Taiwan? Leaving aside propaganda etc.

2. This point appears to be about how unfair historical treatment can lead to fascism. Are you saying that the people of China are headed in this direction?

3. I'll defer to your judgement as I presume you read mandarin/canto, but I don't see a big difference from western social networks there, except for probably in terms of number of users (larger userbase) . I can read Korean fairly well and see those kinds of nationalist comments on Korean social media sites as well (funnily enough, they also aren't fans of Japan at the moment. )

4. I know what's happening there and am a little hurt you'd assume I'd get into a discussion like this without knowing. Human rights abuses are bad. That seems like the most one can say without getting accused of whataboutism. Are there gas chambers in those camps? (edit:clarification below)

>Maybe I'm wrong and just being an alarmist

Maybe you're right and I'm just trying to hope for the best.

My original post on this thread came mostly from shock as I was raised on the internet era where it was considered a faux pas to do blithe Nazi comparisons. so I was mildly astounded to see that the top voted comment in here boiled down to "China is Weimar/Nazi Germany."
How long until China starts pressuring foreign firms to cut business with those that speak against it?

I wonder what percentage of the world's population was born after new computers stopped shipping with 3 1/2" drives. Probably at least 25%.

Wow, really? A whole day without power? This is actually gonna happen?
Yes, it's showing me half-english half-dutch, for a translation supposed to be in flemish, on an IP that's supposed to default to french, with a web browser asking for english, in a country that speaks french or flemish.

But the worst part of it is it's doing so with NO WAY TO CHANGE THE LANGUAGE.

oarsinsync is correct.

The standard on most UNIX-like OSes is that long options, e.g. --long, have two dashes, and short options, e.g. -l, have one.

It allows you to combine multiple options into one. For example, the following two commands are equivalent:

$ ls -laF
$ ls -l -a -F
What they said was ISIS "were fighting a conventional land war using conventional (not terrorist/guerilla) tactics"

You are summarising that as "ISIS did not use terrorist tactics"

I think that is a misleading summary. I don't think the poster meant to dispute that ISIS was behind terrorist attacks, both in the Middle East and also in other parts of the world. What they were saying, is that ISIS was engaging in conventional (non-terrorist) military operations against the Syrian and Iraqi governments, other rebel groups, etc. Terrorism and conventional military tactics are not mutually exclusive, one can pursue both strategies at the same time. But the second strategy is a sign that one is dealing with something having de facto statehood, as opposed to a non-state terrorist group.

If you are getting heavily down-voted, a possible explanation is that people perceive you to be engaging in an uncharitable reading of the remarks you are responding to
As somebody who has followed his blog for over a decade now, it's kind of weird seeing it with the Microsoft corporate styling. It used to be pretty idiosyncratic.

Last time I went diving through the archives, a lot of the old links and images either had rotted or gotten mangled in one of the many shifts around. It's a bit sad.
No one is using oil sands to generate electricity (Estonia has a large shale oil industry and uses it to generate power, but recently most of their power is coal or cleaner wind and hydro from Finland), so the comparison to nuclear is not warranted.

Oil sands are terribly polluting as mentioned (and energy intensive to extract what oil you can), and are expensive to develop. As the use of oil declines (and the price stays below the floor necessary for oil sand production to break even), its unlikely oil sands will be a meaningful amount of oil production as we look to the future. While a positive gesture, at under $100 million its a small one.
Hiding the flag from the keyboard is one thing (and already pretty bad) but refusing to display the character in China is surreal.

Yes this works! Highly recommended. I’ve installed it on an Intel 660p with a USB3 1GBps enclosure.
I think they don't want to be liable for fires anymore. And they're not "liable" for cutting power to prevent fires. Problem solved, at least from a legal standpoint.
Yeah it's kind of a stretch to call some of them podcasts. They are basically radio shows.
See the link to Rich Hickey’s talk in my other comment. It covers the issues pretty well.

I’m not being contrarian, but I am expressing frustration with a common yet unnecessarily complicated approach to a general problem. But I stand by my statements, they’ve paid off tremendously in real world contexts.
>> Everyone realizes it's counterproductive

Why? Because they'll fuck you up? How exactly? Im not asking about presidents' personalities, what would their political friends think? To put it another way, who watches SP, and is it some marginal minority?
I'm only "incredulous" if the anti-cycling arguments don't make sense. Personally, I don't have a major problem with the "ferrying kids around" argument. But the groceries argument is much weaker than you believe it is, and I'd encourage you to try buying groceries via cargo bike in a reasonably bike-friendly place sometime.

If the main argument against cycling is "seems like too much effort for me to figure out how to make cycling work", okay, I can understand that. But that's not what people have been telling me, so it's not what I have been responding to. (That's not to say it isn't something I should be responding to.)
Thomas Drake on What It’s Like to Be a Government Whistleblower
Thanks for the recommendation. For others looking, I was very happy with DoggCatcher for many years on Android, and am moderately happy with Downcast on iOS now. Downcast does offer iCloud sync with multiple switches for various settings you wish to sync, and import/export (terrible name for something that makes me happy, tho).

The thing that I liked about DoggCatcher is that, as I remember (beyond usual features like search and discovery) it was relatively easy to hook it up to whatever source you wanted. I had lectures in a Dropbox link, and I could point DoggCatcher at the folder and it would pick up my audio files, while being seamlessly integrated with “normal” podcast feeds.

> Are there gas chambers in those camps?

What on earth does it change whether there's gas chambers in there? If you're trying to claim they're not 1940s nazi germany, just say they don't speak german and be done with it.

If you're aware of what's happening over there then you are aware of the torture, yes?
I think this is the right answer and semantically better than parsing user agents, guessing, or other magic.

LabStack: RESTful microservices with geoproximity based routing
Much too expensive.
On a topic about pronouns, is "trans identity" not the obvious meaning/aspect of "identity" here? Yes, I know the PG essay. The PG essay is great when applied to not thinking of yourself as a "X programming language developer" so you don't get too caught up in language wars that really don't matter as much as they feel like, but it's pretty offensive to use it to argue against identifying as LGBT.
Lately I keep seeing variations of the argument "I can't switch to x because the would be inconvenient somehow, so I'll just stick with y". Eg, "I can't switch to linux, because some games won't work so I'll just live with telemetry".

Until people learn to face some inconvenience and limitations they'll just keep being abused by these companies. Changing the world requires some personal pain.
It felt weird to see such a good episode from South Park after how much they have lost touch with reality at some point.

Well .. subjectively I did not find it very funny so maybe not an all time high episode, but the critic was absolutely on point and something that very few people are talking about.

China has a lot of control on what can be included in a hollywood movie.

Propaganda is not exactly new ... after all the US army also has a lot of control when they give support to a movie and demand that they are portrayed favorably but this time it is from one country to another.
Any examples you mind sharing?

Former Ubiquiti employee here.

The CEO is insanely toxic. Insulting people in the company Slack, publicly firing people on the spot, constantly trying to micromanage everything, shutting down entire offices without warning. It's crazy.

So much wasted potential. Most of the good employees left or were fired while i was there. Projects were changed or cancelled monthly. No one knew what was going on.

That's a complete misrepresentation of your link and what I said. Of course businesses are regulated differently, or they'd be getting away with murder on bartering as yet another way to skirt taxes.
I can trade you two apples for two pears without filing a 1099B. Again, why should my labor be treated any differently? The business I work for should potentially pay taxes on my employment, but employees should not. And to clarify because apparently I have to- I'm acting as my own person, not on behalf of a business.
That's a lot of speculation with little or nothing to support it.

Streisand effect. If you shrug it off, only SP regular viewers will know about the portrayal; if you react, everyone knows both that portrayal and that you whined about it like a little baby.

Depends on age, mostly: older people on all sides of the spectrum find SP crass. Younger people often think it's funny. You can find overwrought editorials about how SP is problematic/written by cucks, as it offends people on both sides on occasion.

I wouldn't say it's marginal, since everyone's at least heard of it. My general impression is that it tends to be watched by young-to-middle age college educated but middle class people, but you'd have to ask the studio to get a solid demographic breakdown.
