The fact that it looks symmetric could be confusing to other traffic. You can't tell which side is front, and thus where it is (most probably) going.
> WhatsApp's vulnerabilities are intentionally created as part of surveillance programs with government agencies.

This has been obvious in places like the United Arab Emirates (aka Dubai) where services like FaceTime etc. (sometimes even voice chat in games) are blocked by the government but they allow WhatsApp (but not WhatsApp voice calls).
> companies that expect people to work this hard are almost exclusively very well paying entry level jobs

wasn't my experience at all, I did get "well paid jobs" in startups, but in the end, combining 3 jobs in one and doing 80 hours a week isn't worth it even if your salary looks pretty high.
Will take a look at Fabric, thank you!
The same way you detect unused variables: Look for accesses, and if nothing accesses the function, it's unused.

Note that I'm talking about non-exported functions (i.e. someFunction rather than SomeFunction).
Ok, some responsive design wouldn't exactly hurt (zooming in one-handed on my phone on a shaky bus took me longer than a bloated "modern" web site would take to load), but I definitely agree with your sentiment. No cookie warnings, no full-screen popups, no sluggish animations and yes, no huge margins that turn my rather large phone screen into a 3310.
But backups to iCloud are optional. Apple has to strike a balance.

This is cliche as can be, but the trade off is security for convenience.

Fact is, iOS is consumed largely by people who want convenience. They don’t want to lose all of their data if they forget their passwords.

But for those people who are ok with that type of unforgiving paradigm, then don’t use iCloud backups, and you’re all set.
Yes, but let's be real, 95% of programmers do not build real-time systems.

Especially not the type of programmers Rust is appealing to. They seem to be more excited by WebAssembly than the stuff that actual low latency people worry about, like tuning obscure FPGAs and vectorizing math code. These are industries like audio processing, SpaceX, industrial equipment manufacturers, self-driving cars, high frequency trading. Definitely not code targeting x86_64 cloud VMs or iPhones.

In hard real-time environments they do not even do memory management. They just statically allocate the whole heap and never malloc or free while the program is running. So even if Rust is better at memory management, it won't make them switch from C because it wasn't an issue.

Do you really think people know what they are giving up when they sign up for one of those? Are the stores being up front about what they are doing with your data? Of course not. It's buried in pages of TOS. When you're rushed at the register with a line behind you and you want to get the price that you saw when you picked up your items you're going to sign up as fast as you can. You don't have time to understand what you just got suckered into.
Since they had minimal (iPad only) training time coming from the NG to the Max before, I too am curious to see on how this turns out. I assume that at least some authorities will take that into account.
> As long as what's going on is transparent

I wouldn't consider "middle of some license agreement" to be transparent enough, and I'm sure most people aren't fully aware of what data is tracked and how it can be used.
Everything else about it is still a 737. The training is also not limited to just sim time, there should be extensive teaching on integration e.g. checklists and system design.

Also, when you're in the sim, it's not like its just take off, fly around, something fails, you land, kind of thing.. It's a situation they are provided and then you are observed as to how you handle that situation. In this case, I'm sure it will focus on random failures along this new MCAS path (what i'm saying is the MCAS system will be fully failable as a sim option). Your manager (a senior pilot) then decides, on all information not just the sim, if you are airworthy or need another go around of training.
The point of bang is that I don't have to setup anything. And it's pretty exhaustive I often use !gten, !gtfr or !gtes to specify the target language for Google translate.

> Smelling bad, shouting nonsense, and talking to strangers in public are not crimes.

And neither are they symptoms of a specific biological malfunction. We just happen to be highly social animals and if we are continually denied social interaction we'll start to do increasingly stupid things to provoke a reaction. Programs that give those people an outlet for their interaction needs will work wonders for almost all of them. Zero care freedom versus lockup/forced medication is a false dichotomy.
And even that can be considered excessive for what it is. Sad.

"Finance a money loser" is exactly how local government has been deploying buses all over my country for decades. I assume many countries are like this. Outside of major cities, the main users of the 100,000s of buses are those who cannot drive, primarily school children, disabled and elderly. The bus users pay more per mile than car owners, and the majority of the population pays a lot of taxation and air pollution. Removing vehicle emissions is a no-brainer, but removing the driver makes it possible to replace 50+ seat buses every hour with 4-6 seat buses every 5 mins and vary the routes or add additional vehicles dynamically in response to demand. Sadly this will take a long time - local government won't do anything until forced or until they see an obvious vote winner
Growing larger cities is also a trend in Germany. Especially the young mobile population moves to cities to study at universities. Cities are also attractive for their infrastructure.

Small and medium sized towns often (not always) struggle with that and are looking into ways to become more attractive...

Here is the release tweet as well

== copy of tweet content ==

Today we are releasing our first official "Experiment". It potentially allows you to use different versions of the same web-component on one page

In your template it looks normal but under the hood tag names are auto registered.

To get there you need to import side effect free classes and create a special html template literal which will make sure a unique tag name gets used if need be

It comes with a long list of limitations like
️ You can not use self registering elements
️ Every (!!!) component that uses sub components need to use scoped-elements
️ You can not use tag selectors
️ Performance degradation of up to 8%
️ ... see docs

Let's take this as an opportunity start a discussion about nested/scoped elements. You are invited

The docs are quite detailed and should give an idea why this is needed and how it works. More details will follow in a blog post

Insufficient data to show that N95 is better than a surgical mask, not insufficient data that N95 works. My guess is that whether the mask fits and makes a good seal, whether the user wears it consistently, and whether the user washes his hands before handling food or touching his mouth or nose all matter a lot more than the type of mask.
Couldn't disagree more. For simple boxes-and-arrows pictures like these, text-based diagrams are vastly superior to inlining an image.

We had a fleet of HP 712s running NeXTSTEP and the Objective-C developer tools at the University of Waterloo in the 1990s. The hardware + NeXT licenses were less than half the cost of the NeXT hardware and ran much faster. Plus, it ran much faster on PA-RISC than on NeXTSTEP/486.
I wish they'd knock it off with the grandiose headlines. I make my living with what passes for AI nowadays, and I can say with complete certainty that we will not be achieving anything anywhere close to general AI in my lifetime. I'd be willing to bet serious money on that, too, if there were a way for me to collect.

Literally nobody is working on human-level AI. There are no papers, no conferences, nothing. And yet, we see these headlines with persistence deserving of a better cause.
> Internet feels more hostile than it used to.

It's not Internet, it's software.

You can really feel it when switching from Android to LineageOS, or from Windows to Linux.

It's the difference between software where "you are the product" and software that has been created to serve the user, to be the best tool it can be.

I'm not talking about UX in the sense that open source software can sometimes feel clunky and unfinished, but I'm talking about breath of freedom you feel when you switch, and suddenly ... you notice that this current you have been forced to swim against, just isn't there any more.

I helped a friend get LineageOS on his bootlooped phone, and he's so happy with it. All these features in the settings that are actually helpful (when in Android you always have to second guess, you know that feeling when a setting's description is really vague and uninformative, "this is probably going to spy on me", is it vaguely positive or negative, because the switch can go either way). All the very basic features that would otherwise require an ad-filled app to perform, of course already there. You get privacy controls that aren't mystifying or reset on updates.

Similarly, I've now been on Instagram for about half a year. Always avoided FB, but there's some art I wanted to put out there, so I gave it a try. And oh my god, Instagram is probably the shittiest software ever? Or at least the most user hostile. It's a social thing where you can share images, comments and messages. Except it isn't, it just appears like one. Literally every interaction feels forced, to show me more ads, make me spend more time in this app (??) and mainly constantly throwing up barriers against interacting with any kind of software or data outside its ecosystem. You can't upload from your laptop, many links are not clickable, many text fields are not copyable, most features in the browser are locked unless you make it pretend to be an iPhone (!!), you can't post or reply to comments. The chat is such basic functionality that it seems hard to fuck up but they did. I should stop, but I can go on ...

This is that feeling of constantly swimming against a current, and somehow we're tricked into believing that is how it's supposed to be, because ... I don't know, some people told me when I complained, that most people don't use instagram in the way I do. Well I guess, but that doesn't seem to be most people's choice.
Because they would have been operating at a loss. Unless they could magic down the cost of manufacturing their products, there's no way to magic down the price they had to charge customers.
This is a quibble but reminiscent of the kinds of inconsistency PHP programmers are known for:

1. Yes, they have to. At least in the US any company has to cooperate with the law enforcement as you might know. The only choice to do business in the US or based on US governed soil is to comply with them.

2. Apple at least put some effort into this matter because otherwise there would not be so much media attention to breaking into iPhones. To get data from android on the other hand seems to be no problem at all.

3. We are already in hell but we do not yet see the flames surrounding us.

4. If collective choice matters so much we are all doomed and you know it. Try telling the Joneses about encryption etc. - they will still use WhastApp, Facebook and the likes because it is so convenient over a way of burden and hard work to get there or even live without all these "magical devices and services".
> Just because it doesn't have the dominant city center like London and Paris doesn't mean it isn't centralized.

That's .. kind of the definition we were using? If it's centralized, in which city is it centralized?

The London dominance of the UK is almost debilitating; it's very hard to get any kind of policy discussion that sensibly includes even Birmingham or Manchester. Let alone all the Brexity post-industrial towns.

It's also not entirely true that the UK has lost "manufacturing" - we still make a lot of stuff in £ value terms, but it tends to be small production runs of expensive stuff. Scientific instruments, aerospace, weapons, pharmaceuticals. The industrial relations disaster of the 1970s caused a backlash against vast production lines - not very many of those left apart from Nissan.

The problem an educator has is the time from start till first success (from early happiness but also time constraint perspective). In the first lecture.

Important programming tools like Projects, Package Manager, Routing, separate view/model, ... are a delay in that timespan. They are all worth it and in most frameworks not too complicated. But each item needs time to explain.

No, the issue here is that the Tesla App now allows you to buy a software upgrade package by just tapping through a few screens and the $4k package is added to your cart by default. They don't offer refunds (unless you're internet famous). Practically all other apps require fingerprint or password/code for purchases. Tesla doesn't - and their default checkout basket has $4k worth of unrefundable stuff in it, which is hilarious bad.

The EU/US is a separate historical issue where Tesla states on its website the cost of the vehicle incorrectly - the cost includes the federal tax credit (which you can reasonably expect to get) and $8k in gas savings (which is just a made up number based on random assumptions about how, where, when you drive). Imagine if BMW told you the cost of your vehicle including the gas savings you'd make versus driving a hummer. In the EU lying about the price of a product is illegal, so Tesla display the real price in the EU without their bullshit "savings".
I said:

> Sure there are other factors - it's a question of how many times do you have to roll the dice before you get a crash - clearly far too few in this planes case - and that is entirely Boeing's fault.

You said:

>This "entirely Boeing's fault" stuff just encourages a blinkered view of the situation and is exactly the absolutism

You haven't understood what I wrote.

Let's say there is a dice - that represents the chances of a combination of different factors occurring ( weather, pilot experience, plane maintenance, chance of debris hitting sensor, cosmic ray hitting computer - whatever )

What numbers that dice rolls is entirely out of Boeing's control.

However what is entirely in it's control is what happens when particular combinations, represented by the numbers, come up.

So if there is a plane that crashes only when you roll a six, and a plane that crashes when you roll a five or a six, clearly the second plane is 100% worse and yes the individual crash depends on what the dice rolled - but the relative safety of the plane doesn't!!!

Do you understand now?

Rob Pike has definitely used a debugger: http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1941206

Preferring logging statements is one thing, never having used a debugger is another.
I think the answer is closer to 10 years, as ln( 3500 / 48 ) / ln( 48 / 31 ) = 9.8

In 4.72 years, they would be at 48 * ( 48 / 31 )^4.72 = 378 millions / day.

An explanation of why would be nice
My impression has been that developers way too often rely on the subsequent use of the debugger when writing code. It’s like, “I don’t really know what I’m doing, but the debugger will help me understand my code... Oh, what a piece of crap I wrote! Let me start over...” Looks almost like people are debugging themselves.
