This assumes the goal of news is to be accurate. It is not. News exists to sell advertising and media advertising is presented in (i.e. TV, Newspaper, Website subscriptions). Funny thing is the news industry gets it right a lot more than state-controlled news agencies. The incentive is there - selling more - to take some huge risks to find big stories and report on the powerful, rich and elites bad behavior.

If you inject personal liability to journalism, the news industry is dead in six months.

"A Severe Mercy" by Sheldon Vanauken is one of my favorite books, if not my favorite. A significant theme of that work is "moments made eternity," where eternity is used to connote both a sense of timelessness and of heaven. The author finds that his (and his wife's) most joyous times were precisely those moments where they lost track of time and simply enjoyed something (e.g., gazing at the night sky stretching out above the ocean) as long as they cared to. When they were done, they couldn't tell if minutes or hours had passed, but it didn't matter. In fact, that was part of the joy of the moment. Ultimately, they find themselves longing for the Christian ideal of heaven, where eternity will be all they have and they'll no longer be constrained by time.

I too find that I enjoy such moments of timelessness... one in particular sticks out in my head. I had hiked with my 2-year-old son down to a creek in a local state park. I sat in the grass and watched while he threw pine cones and sticks into the water, splashed around, and just had a blast doing what boys do. When I checked the time, I realized that we had been there for nearly 3 hours, though I could have sworn it was only a few minutes.

I find clocks as useful as anybody else, but I also find escaping them for a bit to be a delight...

Barber shops are traditionally, and presently, social gathering spots. Go to proper barber shops, not hair cutting chains, and you'll see people just sitting around hanging out talking.

>Since the turn of the 19th century, beauty salons and barber shops have served as special places among African Americans. They have been places not only to get hair care services but locations where black people could be vulnerable and talk about issues of importance in the community. There were spaces where customers played games such as chess, cards, and dominoes, while having conversations about local gossip, politics, and community affairs.

And this isn't just an African American thing, it's a white thing, it's a Hispanic thing, it's an everyone thing.

It would still be very expensive, though.
Do they? IME, they just ask you if you want to trust the self-signed certificate and allow you to optionally store that "trust" indefinitely, ending up with something like Trust On First Use. The warnings have to be scary initially because the security model is so radically different from the usual case of CA's; specifically, getting that "first use" validation correct is critically important.

My great-grand mother told me stories of her father.

Something that downloads information from the web is called an "agent". A browser is a specific type of agent called a "user agent".

We did in build2[1]. Specifically, we have a notion of target type which may not be path or mtime-based. For example, one such target type is alias (something that is achieved in make with PHONY targets). So you could define, say, a url target type. Then you can implement a rule that knows how to perform a certain operation on certain target types (we've also generalized a notion of operation so in build2 test, install, dist are operations, not targets).

> it should be possible to memorize at least the best white move for each of the 960 positions

Seeing how there is no consensus on "best opening" for the normal game of chess, introducing 960 more variations is not going to be a simple case of memorising the "best opening". I would go as far to say that simply introducing 10 new standard opening positions would introduce more than enough complexity to shake up high level play. There's only so much a human can remember once the computer is turned off and you are over the board.
I feel like I'm the only crazy person who thinks checked exceptions are better than unchecked exceptions. I've read all the arguments against them and they just don't resonate with me. "Oh. So you think it's okay that a dependency's method changed to throw a new exception, but you don't want to have to change your code? Sounds super lazy and risky to me..." When your dependency's logic changes, yours probably needs to, as well.

What really drives me nuts is when the same person shits on checked exceptions and then advocates for using a monadic return value. They're completely isomorphic. The only difference is in how it reads.

Scalable Ultra Low Latency Streaming for Your Live Game Show
Roku is built into many of the lower end TVs. I’m sure they get a cut of the revenue that Roku receives.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-12-11/streaming...

Nearly every inch of real estate on Roku is for rent. For $1 million, a streaming service can take over the home screen to advertise a show. When Hulu got the rights to stream Seinfeld, it paid Roku to transform a portion of the screen into an image of Jerry’s apartment instead of the default purple backdrop. Hulu, Netflix, Showtime, and YouTube have paid Roku to build brand-specific buttons on its remote controls; these lead users straight to those services. At $1 per customer for each button, the cost can quickly add up to millions of dollars in monthly fees.
A Quantum RNG for .NET: The quantum measurement problem and many-worlds approach
The rationale for why "just add more shelters" is hard has been explained to me as:

* nobody wants a shelter built near them
* even if it does get built, it's often women/children only

and the second bullet point isn't (afaik...) just sexism or anything, it's just picking risk categories. Consider all the following like you were an insurance company trying to appraise how costly it is to do business with a group of people: Apparently homeless men are, collectively, more expensive to shelter than women/children because they're plagued by more expensive issues - more violence, more drug issues, etc. So homeless shelters frequently can't afford to operate if they try to shelter men. So it becomes an issue of "women/children only" or "it's literally too expensive to safely run the (both-genders) shelter to be feasible".

You do have to cull the others, but the culling isn't what is costly. What is costly is the exponential nature of searching the tree, i.e. if you want to evaluate 3 of your moves in advance, with 50 moves being available every time, you have to generate 50^6 moves, which is pretty fast on a modern CPU, but for 4 moves it's 50^8 which is definitely not that fast anymore. So at some point you have to sacrifice breadth for depth drastically, and as soon as you do that pretty much the only thing that matters is how well you can evaluate positions as they are (without searching further down the tree). Even if you didn't cull searches, at some point you have to stop searching and fundamentally decide what the best move is. If this evaluation isn't good, all your searching didn't do anything.

This is, from my understanding, also the reason why traditional AI approaches struggled so much with Go. Not because Go has so many possible moves, but because given a certain game state it is so difficult to evaluate which player is ahead.
That's a good point, these problems are not easy to solve. But they should be solved.

For example, the user types "7" into the UI control. The UI control knows it's supposed to hold a number, so it has methods that return the parsed number (done by the OS, very carefully), or an error to the user.

Similarly, you don't send the product name, but the ID of the product the user selected from their fuzzy search. I would go as far as using this technique for the email too.
The whole thing was unnecessary and not part of his job AFAIK. It was also a giant, dressed up, thinly veiled "fuck you" to any of his female colleagues even if he didn't have proper social awareness to realize it. The scientific claims on gender differences were exaggerated and aloof, in part because even if you believe such a claim in terms of averages, making social determinations based on them ranges from flatly idiotic to against the law (for good reasons).

He should have stopped himself when he needed to add a disclaimer that he doesn't believe in prejudices and stereotypes. The need for such a statement is a giant red flag at which point one can ask themselves some critical questions.

When he is fired for this, a lot of conspiracy theories abound, up to and including in this thread. But he should work on the awareness to know what he was saying is a fireable offense by reasonable people. Apparently NLRB concluded the same.

This is all not the same as him being unforgivable or a bad person. In googling after this thread I noted an interview about him and autism. So he may very well deserve our sympathy and have an alternate explanation. The way people on forums like this one use him to allege a massive conspiracy at Google remains unwarranted despite this.

The idea is that virtualization escape vulnerabilities are quite frequent. An attacker might not have one on hand at any given moment and you might patch your system frequently when they become known.

But this only means a determinated attacker that has emulated root needs only patience. Good security always means stacked independent layers, betting the farm only on the guarantees of your VM is very unsafe.

>There will be tractors out there still working that are 75 years old and just keep getting repaired.

This is a massive over-generalization.

Those tractors are not being used to farm low margin commodities (which are the people most new tractors are sold to). You can't operate a soy/corn/whatever farm without equipment that has a $/results number similar to everyone else in your market (who are also trying to reduce costs). There's a reason you don't see a lot of combines from the 70s still in operation whereas skidders basically never get replaced until they're broken in half.

I know it's handwavy but basically every aspect of running a farm converts to money at the end of the day and depending the specifics of what you farm and where you farm it determine whether you have to keep up with the joneses or can run older equipment.
