Couldn't have said it better myself

Something you didn't mention though which always drove me crazy with school was how often it robbed me of the discovery and exploration portions of the learning experience.

Those portions form the substance of life, for me anyways, and every time a teacher would explain things I was on the cusp of understanding on my own anyways it drove me absolutely nuts. Like someone telling you the spoilers to a book or movie you're deeply engaged in.

And when I had already understood concepts the curriculum hadn't yet reached, and had my own perfectly correct and effective methods which happened to differ from whatever they taught when we arrived there, I'd be in trouble for using my familiar and preferred methods. Despite the fact that I actually had a deeper understanding of the problem than someone only having memorized whatever method was being taught, since it was something I had actually encountered in life and figured out independently. This happened so many times in math classes, my teachers started accusing me of cheating on tests because I would ace them while not doing any of the homework. Later on after switching to a non-religious school it became even worse, because we were rehashing stuff all over again like it was a year behind my previous school.

If I had to do it all again I'd have fought harder against school and religion from an earlier age, it was all an awful tar-pit that burned so much time and caused a lot of suffering.
I use personalcapital.com to track accounts, investments and cards. they try to get you to use their expensive investment management, ignore that but besides this its pretty good.
BlackBerry KeyOne or Key2. I have the KeyOne and would recommend the Key2. Typing is not any faster than on glass, but it's purposeful and generally error-free, which is a much better experience in my opinion. Also, you don't need to look at the keys.
Facebook can track you, Even if you don't share your location: Know how
I was going to write a lengthy comment to say the same, but I think you pretty much nailed it.
The original Mac would pop up a dialog with a threatening icon of a bomb with a lit fuse, whenever it crashed!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bomb_(icon)

>The Bomb icon is a symbol designed by Susan Kare that was displayed inside the System Error alert box when the "classic" Macintosh operating system (pre-Mac OS X) had a crash which the system decided was unrecoverable. It was similar to a dialog box in Windows 9x that said "This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down." Since the classic Mac OS offered little memory protection, an application crash would often take down the entire system.

Unfortunately, the Mac's error dialog could cause naive users to jump up out of their seat and run away from the computer in terror, because they though it was going to explode!

And Window's error message was just as bad: it could cause naive users to fear they might get arrested for accidentally doing something illegal!
I would love to do this for my kids, but it's just not possible due to location and cost. I'm in the UK and there are a couple of free school like establishments and that's it. And they are really expensive. For kids like me school was an utter waste of time, with such a strong drive to learn, and an independent streak a mile wide... Let's just say it was a deeply unpleasant experience. Perhaps even traumatising. My two little ones seem to be cut from the same cloth, sensitive to noise and other kinds of stimulation, independent. It's a little too early to say as the oldest is only 4, but I think there might be problems ahead. Although Charlotte has her mum's competitive streak, so she might be ok. I'm worried for them, but I'm not sure there is much I can do but watch them closely and try to catch any problems really early.
Still a user, and that is the point here!!
Many developers forget making tools for the user, forget who they are working for, putting there problems first, onto the user.

That is the real rudeness here!

That I am very tired about and which makes me reluctant to use apps. Too many lazy incompetence ruining app usage. I may be alone with rudeness but definitely not alone with the strong disappointment and reluctance.
Just look around here!
Interestingly, they criticise Apple's choice of OS font, but he's using the default system font on his blog.

Haha I have for the past few months wondered where the "update" list had gone in the new App Store. Thanks for the help :) That is of course the most natural place to put that information - said no one ever.
I think Zig is probably just being opinionated there; many of the new languages seem to be overly so. Last I checked, both the Zig and Nim compilers refused (on principle, not for any technical reason) to compile code containing tabs (among other things). I don't (usually) want my compiler to do linting, and I certainly don't want language authors to dictate my code style from on high.
I really dislike emotional article titles like this.

There is a bond or there isn’t. Honestly, I feel like it’s better if we can ‘retire’ emotionally like we do from a job. Getting old is inevitable(for now)..when someone is in their 60s-70s, their children are probably in their middle age dealing with their own families and crises.

Children are insurance for our genetic material. Not financial or emotional crutches. Some might not feel that way, but I think having expectations and cultivating detachment as one grows older is a better attitude. Heck! I have been trying to cultivate detachment from the time I hit 35 and it’s a process. I hope to get it right by my 5th or 6th decade, at least!
I've been out of school for over a decade and I'm still gaming the system to earn the highest for the least amount of work.

Pretty excited for retirement tho...
> and that LSD proves effective doesn't mean healthy people will get benefits

There have a number of studies showing that psychedelics (often psilocybin, which has similar effects to LSD) can have significant benefits for healthy people in a carefully managed setting.

Weren’t you troubled by the fact that he admits optimists are factually wrong compared to pessimists, blame others, don’t admit fault, and just seem like generally unpleasant people (insurance salesmen and the type of person who talks on planes, for example)? Yeah, okay, they are happier, live longer, are more successful, get elected... but at what cost to the world? I came away thinking we should train the optimists to listen to pessimists more, not the opposite...

I guess you're one of the people that supports things like that bullshit code of conduct that is popping up pretty much everywhere.

> So to fix systemic inequalities for some groups, we're going to increase systemic inequality for certain other groups?

No; in order to accurately identify people through appearances, we'll try to sample evenly throughout the range of appearances and features instead of sampling based on proportions within the population of the people setting up the system.

You're can't be seriously making the case that white people are such an overwhelming portion of the world's population that not concentrating on them in your training data constitutes racial discrimination. Not only racial discrimination even, but is a attack that will inspire a "legitimate" counter-retaliation.

I think the UI looks great on Retina displays. The main point for me is the smoother fonts. It's extremely crisp. I also loved the Windows 2000-style UI which was almost pixel perfect. I guess that's why I love Apple's new design direction.

My 9 years old son has refused to go to his public Tokyo school for two years now.
I am from a German speaking country and the idea of a child not to attend school is absolutely unimaginable. His mother (Japanese) has always insisted that this is not uncommon in Japan. His head-teachers also insured me that this is not uncommon. As I am not living in Japan I had to accept these circumstances.

I was somewhat calmed by the knowledge that the school provided counseling and other dedicated programs for the development of my son. I thought the counselors cared quite well for him, when I was allowed to witness sessions.

When I took my son to my home country for two months he transformed. He was quiet and reclusive in the first weeks, but turned into a much more playful, outspoken and socially interested young boy towards the end.

Since then I discovered that his mother has been hiding a worsening mental illness from me. This affected my son greatly, he felt the need to care for her. He even has hundreds of YouTube videos in his history explaining children of what to do when your parent is mentally unwell — discovering this really broke my heart.

Per my request, my son was taken into the custody of the Japanese child protective services 3 months ago and I am currently in Japan fighting for sole custody of him.

My tale is a single data point, but I have come to believe the many stories of mental problems of Japanese children and young adults are not solely attributable to the pressures of society.
I rather believe that mental health problems being a taboo in Japan may be the root of many problems.

Per my understanding it is incredibly shameful to admit to mental health problems and doing so brings serious ramifications.

So, if my hypothesis is correct, parents in Japan are more likely to go untreated and their children suffer the effects, perpetuating the cycle.

In our case, the school—very subtly—tried to inform me about their worries concerning his mothers mental health problems without ever speaking about it directly. They only spoke freely when a court appointed expert demanded them to.

My son has an entire network of child psychologist, youth counselors and also me waiting for him in my home country, who will all encourage him to treat mental health like physical health; Everyone gets sick sometimes. For the body you take antibiotics, for the mind you take time of to become aware of what is happening. You seek professional help in both situations and being depressed, is a shameful as getting the flu, not at all.
Unfortunately the only UNIX derived OSes that seem to care about that are Solaris on SPARC, iOS and Android on ARM, given how they take advantage of hardware tagging.

On x86 clones Intel just dropped the buggy MPX, with no replacement in sight.

And by the way things are going, any form of Safe C variant, doesn't appear to ever be adopted by UNIX clones.
He's complaining that Undo is overly agressive, given that there's no (obvious) redo function.
As someone who "gets wild" in cmake, if it did not allow it I would basically have to write my own build system to do what I want (mostly parsing / preprocessing / code generation). These steps have to be somewhere and I'd much rather reuse the infrastructure available in cmake for that rather than roll my own - especially given how easily it runs on windows.
I doubt we will ever see a UNIX clone written in Rust.

An OS that happens to expose some support for POSIX, yeah (e.g. Redox), but anything else wouldn't be an UNIX clone per se.

You should read "factfulness". It annoys me when people talk of the current world and time in negative tones when it is best we have ever had by many measurements. Not that we are having a terrible time, but it is cool to think negatively of the world it seems to me.
I support this, but offer a word of caution: When we did a Friendsgiving, word got out and friends invited friends and we ended up hosting about 100 people. It was chaotic fun, but also a big lesson. ;)

Nuclear was always high risk; Fukushima begged for disaster. Human errors dogged it from the beginning. The region had experienced multiple large tsumani in the century before it was built. Hello? The site started out as a 33-meter bluff, which was lowered to 7-meters. TEPCO was warned about their emergency generators and did nothing. Pretty damn sure these were not engineering decisions.

There's a much more evil prank than that:

A user was having a really bizarre problem: They could log in when they were sitting down in a seat in front of the keyboard, but when they were standing in front of the keyboard, their password didn't work! The problem happened every time, so they called for support, who finally figured it out after watching them demonstrate the problem many times:

It turned out that some joker had rearranged the numbers keys on the keyboard, so they were ordered "0123456789" instead of "1234567890". And the user's password had a digit in it. When the user was sitting down comfortably in front of the keyboard, they looked at the screen while they touch-typed their password, and were able to log in. But when they were standing in front of the computer, they looked at the keyboard and pressed the numbers they saw, which were wrong!
Hey I am the author of the blogpost. I have been reversing for a couple of years.

Usually, GDB just parses the ELF header to get the entry point. $ info file; in gdb should give you entrypoint of the binary almost always. In this case however the program has a corrupted section header, due to which gdb is not able to recognize the entry point. I dont exactly know which bytes in the header was corrupted, but apparently radare2 is able to get the entrypoint without much work. Should be fun to investigate more.
Predicting weather and predicting climate are almost completely different things. It's about predicting where a single state space trajectory of a chaotic system ends up versus predicting bounds and average positions for an ensemble of trajectories. The first is impossible, the second is routinely done. Think of a double pendulum, one can't predict where it is in an hour, but can predict reasonably accurately how high it can still go due to the amount of kinetic and potential energy it is going to have.

Regardless the state of algorithms, it does seem interesting that 2019 was the coincidental end time for a significant chapter of the Marvel movies, the Star Wars (first) sequel trilogy, and Game of Thrones. Let's hope that means we'll at least get some different types of adaptations come 2020.
I've been following Crystal for long time (Shameless plug I've been running a geo-location service in production for years now https://gitlab.com/maxpert/crlocator and it works flawlessly). Despite the setbacks in past Crystal has continued to evolve and I am waiting for fully baked version 1. I am not surprised that Crystal can pull of something like running a complete operating system. Modern language landscape is getting populated and brings novel ideas (Rust, Zig, Golang, Julia); and Ruby's nice syntax with efficiency of compiled language IMOH still remains desirable for a lot of us.
Right, but the abstraction later for Treble is the HAL boundary and not the syscall boundary. The seccomp filter is unrelated and IIRC relatively permissive.

Most professionnal audio software is like that - you can have e.g. a thread per track to make it simple but you also have to ensure that each execution cycle does not take more than 1 millisecond else you get audio glitches. And there is no limit to how hard you have to improve - this is a central factor for people buying your software (see dawbench) and artists really really don't like limits - they will always try to add more effects, etc etc on each track.
ALSR was never meant to be the only line of defense against buffer overflow attacks; it’s a mitigation and not a solution. It makes it so a single exploit is not enough to achieve full control.

Your answer does pique my interest, but mostly to find data supporting or disproving your reasoning that sounds totally reasonable. But as you know, experimental results don't always support common sense.

For example, when your wrote "statins, sure they might block a pathway so cholesterol shows up lower when you measure, but how is that number in any way indicative of good health?", You're making way too many assumptions. Statins have been shown to reduce strokes and heart attacks. Does having a lower likelihood of having a stroke means you're healthier? Not necessarily. But what does it mean to be healthy, anyways? You can define it in so many ways.
I agree things are better than even, but let's not forget that's on average.

Many people still suffer, and even the luckiest of us can see it.

People just aren't wired to think about things in terms of population statistics.

> people talk of the current world and time in negative tones

Are you sure they aren't also considering the trend that we're on?

Things are good overall, but China and Russia are not functioning democracies, and most powerful countries are trending away from democracy.

> it is cool to think negatively of the world

It is cool to be concerned about others who are suffering (and maybe even a status symbol for some), and that concern leads to negative feelings.

No one complains about the state of the world insincerely...
