> I think it's emcumbent on approach 2 to try and understand why people act like approach 1.

Recidivism.

As members of the public, it's highly likely that we've both seen others be burned by trying to take approach 2. And have ourselves been burned by trying to take approach 2. After all, many crimes have very high rates of recidivism.

These experiences tend to model how we approach other people in the future.

And to be honest, it's not really a 'wrong" approach that "only makes everything worse". At some point, the question of approach 3 "removing a person from society" is a valid question when it comes to reducing harm.
I am not entirely sure what qualifies for being "competent C++ devs". My thinking goes that it is kinda hard to imagine competent developer in general (never mind C++) not having knowledge about async patterns.

This is a critical and massively overlooked consideration. China has huge leverage over Apple because of this.
If it weren't for the anti-vaxers I wouldn't have to become qualified: I'd just do what my doctor said. Instead I now need to become qualified so I can argue with all these idiots trying to spread diseased that could kill my kids before they are old enough to vaccinated. I have better things to do that learn about medical issues, but I've been forced to become semi-qualified.

Now if I just knew of an effective way to argue with anti-vax idiots...

Any flooring with low flame spread and low smoke developed and high slip resistance as measured by standard tests by a qualified testing agency is typically allowed by life safety codes. Other flooring isn't.

Hanging art on the walls of egress stairs is typically prohibited by life safety codes. Egress stairs are required to be maintained as egress stairs. The requirement isn't based on theory. It is empirically derived from experience among fire fighting agencies encountering corpses and/or impeded fire-fighting operations when egress stairs are adapted for non-egress uses such as habitability and/or storage.

The blanket prohibitions exist because ordinary people ordinarily don't have experience with emergency events and modifications to life safety systems may effect the well-being of other building occupants, fire-fighters, and the general public.

except we don’t really just maximize our survival. if we did or had the capacity to, we would do things much differently. instead we go well beyond just simply trying to survive. and yes, other ecosystems’ balance can be upset but that is usually due to human influence in the first place. we are different in our behavior.
There's a lot more money in climate research than from the fossil fuel and other companies seeking to maintain the status quo? Colour me unconvinced. I suspect the Koch funded foundations and think tanks alone could eclipse most nation's science budgets.
The article uses a bunch of examples like cryopreservation and whiskey to erroneously state that biological age doesn't matter, completely forgetting that A: that technology doesn't exist, and B: humans don't stop aging. Besides, don't people refer to whiskey as "aged 21 years" not "21 years old"?

The man with the lawsuit doesn't even have a legitimate argument for changing his age, why can't he just lie on dating apps like everyone else?
>Do they plan on staying in Germany using their degree?

Ah - you betray yourself here. I thought you said it was just that they didn't speak the language, not that they were foreigners in a precarious situation, to be undeserving of a certain education.
I guess I'm lucky that I live in the U.S. where we've had to deal with integration of various peoples from the start and have made peace with the fact that policies that end up excluding a certain group can indeed be called racist if the effect is so. Despite its contrition over the past perhaps Germany still has some growing to do.
while I had obeyed all the rules at the time, they were retroactively changing the rules and I needed to declare all the interest I had earned on my offshore account over the last 8 years.

Are you sure they changed the rules? It sounds like they might have realised they hadn't been implementing/enforcing the European Union Savings Directive (EUSD) [1] correctly, and therefore retroactively enforced the rules. Or perhaps they found that the EU rules overrode the UK/IM rules, which were retroactively found to be null and void.

I have watched Brexit avidly but comfortably from across the pond for the last two years. Every PMQs Corbyn has got up and, in the earlier days, ignored Brexit entirely, and now, he complains about lack of clarity and progress by the Government. While he and his party have never had any clear position on it, by design. The Tories' current position of hard Brexit or bust may be insane, but at least it is a position. The Lib Dems and SNP have one too. But not Labour.

So while this "talking point" may have been noticed by the Mail and Telegraph, it has been apparent to many of us for some time.

If Labour had kicked Corbyn out for, say, Starmer, and taken a clear soft Brexit or even Remain position, they could have long ago taken Government from the Tories, who have obviously badly screwed up everything in Brexit that it is possible to screw up.

On the other hand I am keeping my fingers crossed for the incredibly unlikely event of a unity government under Ken Clarke.

TL;DR: philpem is completely correct.
That is not true at all.

R has inbuilt great parallel tools (check for example the doSnow and future frameworks);

the best packages for data manipulation are mostly written in C (for example data.table and a good part of the tidyverse);

and with frameworks like Drake you can easilly create a Dag out of it that can process complex iterations millions of times. Check the uses of the Rcpp package that makes interfacing C code to R a breeze.

But of course, if you were comparing R to a pure compiled language, you are out of luck.

After my deep dive into reading about the Zipline Drone company (who first deployed at-scale in Rwanda and now serve virtually the entire country with rapid, fully electric airborne blood and medical product delivery), I learned just how well Rwanda is doing economically. Very vibrant, indeed.

They are led by a paternalistic figure who helped stop the genocide and has high support in the population. It's not as democratic as I would like, and the Rwandan meddling in Congo isn't exactly clean, but trajectory of Rwanda to middle income country status is commendable. I worry about Kagame's admiration for the Chinese model of development, though. I guess an advantage of Africa versus China is the nations are more numerous and so power is more disperse (possible exception: Nigeria by the end of the century). I hope a gradual trajectory toward prosperity for all, freedom, and peace take place on this continent.

> You're pretty invested in being an American, skin in the game, manifest destiny etc.

Huh? You just described maybe 1 in 10 Americans. We genuinely do not care about "manifest destiny" and many of us don't put much value in being American either. I'm not even sure what you mean by "skin in the game"

> Let's say one day some stupid little state that you don't care about and vaguely resent decides it wants to secede, wants all these rights others don't have, wants to be able to marry its cousins or make nukes at home or whatever. Alabama, go with them. Alabama wants to secede and they have some demonstrations. You think: "hahahaha no"

But Hong Kong doesn't want to secede. They want to keep the freedoms they've had for decades and prevent an oppressive government from restricting those freedoms. Your example is entirely different and opposite sides of the spectrum.

A more apt example would be the Occupy protests that happened throughout the western world close to a decade ago. Those were about returning the status quo to what it was before greed took it too far from the middle class. Looking back, it was highly ineffective. But those were months-long protests that hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people took part in and for the most part, every day citizens who were not taking part in the protests supported them (or were at least indifferent). Tools were built to help these protesters find where to go and where to avoid (as with all large scale protests) and they were never an issue.

Heck, one of the most widely used apps in the US is Waze and one of the primary appeals of it is the crowd sourced police location data. Law enforcement has complained about it, but no actions have been taken against it and no one seems to have any real issue with it.

I agree with you that it is more complicated than just leaving or not. Plus, Apple is currently dependent on Chinese manufacturing (a problem of Apples own making for sure). I would love to know what the conversations are between Apple and China right now. IMO, Apple has to be working towards removing their dependence on Chinese manufacturing, if for nothing else for business risk mitigation.

This was extremely common in people old enough to remember the Great Depression, when the banks failed. My grandmother kept a roll of cash in her freezer until her dying day. When I was a kid, I asked her why, and she replied that she never wanted to be as hungry as a she remembered being as a child.

She washed and reused her aluminum foil, too.

> "ostracize them in real life."

Are they not already though? I suppose it's always possible to go even further, but I'm not convinced that would work. Perhaps it would be instructive to consider how obese people are treated in countries where obesity rates are low. Are fat people ostracized to a greater or lesser degree in those countries?
It seemed like it was an interesting mid-point between elementary and high school: they start giving you some real extracurricular activities and electives and such to start exploring, but you don't yet have the highschool pressures of more difficult classes and preparation for college. Maybe that sweet spot is why it's a renaissance for some people.

It's even analogous to college, a midpoint between grade school and adult life; a sudden increase in experiences without a proportionate increase in responsibilities.

The West does not act and think in a collective, we are used to opposing views and have zero issue with publicly decrying the actions of our very own governments and removing those from power. The Western people do not act and think in lock step with their respective governments. The issues that individuals and groups of people in the West value can be VERY different from our governments national security interests and also VERY different from even our own neighbors.

I do judge the Chinese government and their self proclaimed leader. I feel bad for the billion people of China who are unable to have free and open public discourse about their own governments actions, to hold and remove those in power peacefully and to be unable to find some sort of representation.

I think HK should continue its protests so that every individual and voice in the "West" can focus and view the shameful acts of the Chinese government.

> Governments—even the very nice ones that top the OCED indices—don’t seem to be very good at producing educated, productive wards.

I think this is in large part due to the simultaneous existence of children raised in the traditional fashion, often by the politicians crafting the system for the wards. A generous imagination would suppose that when the entire society relies on the system and is itself a product of that system, there'd be higher incentive to make it effective.
Your characterisation of the Chinese public does not make it seem more sympathetic, quite the reverse: it makes them seem petty and spiteful, lashing out at a population which is better educated and more prosperous than them, one unwilling to suffer under the yoke of the CCP as the majority have been indoctrinated to do.

Why not let Hong Kong be independent? What moral claim does mainland China have to the territory over the people who live there? If China is so superior and resents Hong Kong then they are better off without it.

From Wikipedia,

>Manifest destiny was a widely held belief in the 19th century United States that its settlers were destined to expand across North America.

The average American does not think that America should expand any further throughout the world, nor do they think that America has an irresistible duty to remake the world in its image. The theme of "the special virtues of the American people and their institutions" is only one part of the definition of manifest destiny.

Also, if you've ever read an HN thread on public mass transit, I think there is evidence against the claim that Americans think that all of their institutions are the best in the world.

Bazel has good support for both languages. My personal experience is with the JavaScript + Rollup (or TypeScript + Rollup) rules for Bazel.

There are rules for Bazel + Yarn integration and although I use them, I’m not really qualified to give an opinion. With the TypeScript projects I work on, you have an ordinary yarn.lock and some extra Bazel rules in WORKSPACE to install the packages, and then you use some Bazel rules for TypeScript + Rollup to create bundled JavaScript files. Bazel’s TypeScript rules execute much faster than running tsc from the command line because someone took the time to figure out how to keep a hot copy of tsc running that Bazel can send commands to.

My personal experience is that you can do a gradual migration by working bottom-up, starting with the components that have no dependencies. There is a learning curve to it if you are the one writing rules, and it can take a while to get the hang of it / find where the good resources are.

I would evaluate it on an estimated cost/benefit basis. The primary benefit for large projects is build times. If you can quantify how much time your developers are spending waiting for builds, and estimate how much time you can cut off with Bazel’s shared caches, you can guess how quickly it will pay off or whether it will pay off at all.

If nothing else, you can find a leaf dependency somewhere in your projects and write some quick BUILD files for it. That shouldn’t take very long, if you have a half-day or day to spare.
I created a chatbot to help against procrastination, worrying and stress
Hey guys! I made a chatbot and wanted to share it with you guys: http://www.iamfeelinganxious.com

It’s a digital coach that helps to fight feelings that get in the way of being productive – whether it’s feelings of stress or panic, losing sleep, repetitive worrying or procrastinating.

The chatbot guides people through quick and easy-to-use exercises, such as short meditations, mindfulness and CBT techniques. The goal is that when you leave the site, you should feel better than before.

Hope you like it!

It is, but on a federal level I think it still needs to be split up into multiple regions. I.e. the north-east, south-west, etc. Choosing to subdivide further at a state level would be optional.

Based on the current trend of corporations trying to log and monetize everything, it's not a far stretch to suppose that data from the cameras (and metadata e.g. GPS location) could end up being used for all sorts of things from affecting Insurance - both premiums and payouts, issuing fines for speeding, or parking in prohibited zones or for too long, or even targeted advertising because you happen to visit a particular store, restaurant or other attraction with any regularity.

Some Insurance companies already offer subsidies for "safe drivers" who consent to being tracked [0]... the rest is just natural progression.

China has state run Telecom companies providing all the eyeball access, so it's relatively straightforward to ensure outside connectivity goes through the great firewall.

Hong Kong has multiple private companies providing eyeball access. It would be far more difficult for the Chinese government to get all of their compliance. If they just wanted to get traffic information, it would be far easier to just collect a statistical sampling collected from flows data on core routers for general info or to monitor specific IP's using rulesets without the massive undertaking needed for always on firewall capabilities on every single packet.
