Flash-in-the-pan stories like this are fascinating to me. I've never seen this kind of drama at work. No nights, no weekends, no screaming, no passive-aggressive snubs like the gift-bag iPods. I did a double take on the dates when I first saw this on Daring Fireball--who has this much to write about in a year or two?

On the other hand, I've never built a product from scratch so quickly. Google and Facebook didn't exist when I started my current job. Now they're gazillion-dollar companies. I've had projects on my wish list longer than Aperture was a product.

Yeah, I've also been using this approach for years now and see significantly less spam on this personal, catch-all account than I do on my work email (both are Gsuite). I will say I was honestly surprised at just how little email I see coming into random email addresses via the catch-all; over years I'd say (anecdotally) that number basically rounds down to 0 versus my "legitimate" email.

Most of the time I do see an influx of spam it's because of one of the aliases clearly having made its way on a list, so I'd say the system is working as intended.

I disagree, Python scripting will tie you to Python development uncertainties, while shell works with most operational environments.

PowerShell, mostly because PowerShell was designed as a mashup of Bash and C#.... And it's kind of a trainwreck in a lot of ways.

It really feels like piping and easy process invocation and compile-time directory awareness wouldn't be massively onerous to add to an existing full-featured programming language so you wouldn't have to sacrifice a good type system and powerful syntax when you want to do scripty things.

As a customer or potential customer I am utterly indifferent if not hostile to that goal. In my world, the purpose of Netflix is to provide me with good stuff to watch. Preferably for free, so I can buy food for my working-class family. If the content is no good, Netflix can cease existing for all I care. And since I and millions of others like me are the ones who continue to allow Netflix to exist, I would say your list of "purposes of Netflix" maybe needs to be expanded to at least two items. Otherwise you've just defined the goal/purpose of a thief, not a commercial entity.

What a wonderful thought from a wonderful set of stories.
I still like and often listen The Daily but more and more I'm annoyed by the sort of insularity or kind of NIH syndrom of this program. By that I mean almost all the guests are from the NYT and whatever the story is, few credits are given or mentions are made to outside journalists. Maybe I'm wrong and not very objective but in the end I find it too much self-centered, it's only my feeling at least.
I have a SQL library that I maintain and it supports Postgres, Maria, MySQL and SQLite. I use Docker for integration testing and it works really well. I have no need for these db engines otherwise, so making them just completely go away when not working on the library is excellent.
1. We don't do embrace, extend and extinguish. All we do is open-source, with products available to download, and docs fully available.

2. We don't 'outright reject OMEMO capability'. I reject OMEMOdiots who moan excessively because their wishes aren't satisfied on the spot.

Why are not they satisfied? Because XMPP does not have a reliable control of message delivery, no way to remove messages from message archive, no good group chats, no client sync protocol, no way to revoke session tokens, no way to know which messages in archive were read, no way to add reactions to messages, no way to do threaded conversations, and while we're building all that we're constantly attacked by individuals who demand us drop everything we do and urgently add OMEMO so they can feel safe (and do it at our own expense, of course).

We'll provide some E2EE capability, but only after we are finished with everything else that we consider more important than this.

3. Extending XMPP in incompatible ways, I'll cover this a bit.

Do you even remotely imagine an amount of shit an XMPP client (say, a web client with no stored history) built on 'compatible' XEPs must do to display a telegram-like interface, with all the recent chats? How much time does it take? Best result we could achieve in our web version with 'compatible' server and 200 contacts is like 5 minutes. With our custom XEPs, it's currently down to 15-20 seconds, and our goal is to trim it to 3 seconds. Does it break anything with s2s? No. It only adds methods of how a client interacts with a server, that's it. Does it break legacy clients? No, they still can do it the old way, if someone is willing to wait 5 minutes.

Next, we have our group chats. They are powerful: archive search, moderation, anonymous mode, public mode, pinned messages, replies, mentions, extremely agile restriction/rights management. They are very easy to implement (on a client) and provide a nice fallback compatibility for any XMPP client even without support for them. You don't need support on participant server to use it (not as in MIX, to say). You can chat using multiple devices, with legacy clients alongside supporting clients, all working nicely with simple Carbons.

Documentation for all improvements is open, (it's not in english yet, but we're getting there), implementations are open-source and distributed under GNU licenses. No, I don't think your point about extending in incompatible ways is valid.

Probably, the more correct way to call it is that we are forking XMPP. Like, in git. We'll be sending XSF pull requests on every XEP we create - hopefully, one day XSF will come to their senses and see that their platform is fading into obscurity and irrelevance, and that to prevent it from happening they should do something differently.

Well seeing that we are talking about the EU, I fail to see how the phone being sold in the US is relevant.

This is the first phone that shows up when you go to MetroPCS.

And it uses Micro USB.

If you care to go down the list of all the cheap Android phones that are sold, you will see a lot of phones that use micro USB.

As far as super cheap - that basically defines most Android phones being sold.

I remember thinking the same thing last time I looked into Fastmail, but earlier when I was checking before posting, it appears that's gotten much, much better. From the Fastmail docs[1]:

> Creating an [wildcard] alias also creates a matching sending identity. This means you can also send mail using this wildcard alias. When sending from a wildcard alias, you'll be able to manually type the From address (to sales@mydomain.com or accounts@mydomain.com, etc) when writing a message.

So, yes, it appears you still have to manually set the from address, but at least you don't have to actually go do anything outside of the composition interface anymore!

If Twitter makes more money, they can finally solve harassment?
So if I’m understanding your argument correctly, you consider the F-35 to effectively be a wealth redistribution program. Taxes are gathered from taxpayers nationwide, and some of that money is funneled into the communities where the F-35 is designed and built. I’m 100% down with wealth redistribution as a way to reduce income inequality, but I think we could be way more efficient in the redistribution; we could employ these people and use this money to create actually useful things, like say construct affordable housing or construct anything other than a $1.5 trillion lemon. That was why I mentioned the parable; the idea is that value isn’t added when you introduce an artificial, costly phenomenon into an economy (i.e. a storm that creates demand for repairs or a worthless fighter jet that creates demand for defense workers). But if you instead use that money to build productive things, then you can get the redistribution and actually make something that someone wants. Thus, it is impossible for the F-35 to be as efficient at wealth distribution as say an equivalent costing program to create working civilian aircraft that could actually be used.

The most efficient way of redistribution would be to use the money spent on the F-35 to directly fund social programs and jobs programs for the poor in these economically disadvantaged communities; this would redistribute all of the money to people who actually need it and will spend it, rather than send huge chunks of it into defense executives/shareholders’ pockets in the currently lossy transactions used in defense contracting.

> The double quotes are of course technically correct, but when you're writing a shell script in a subdir 8 levels deep in the repo that only operates on 3 files in that subdir, it's overkill and makes everything ugly.

Once it becomes habit the cost is zero, though.

And the alternative you're implicitly suggesting is: "Follow shellcheck except you are allowed to make an expert judgement and ignore it when you know it won't be dangerous and have determined that the code is unlikely to change in the future so that this exception will be safe going forward too."

I think it's clear that this isn't a practical rule on a team with many people -- especially where they are not all experts in shell, which is 100% of teams of many people.

Making the experts "add those annoying double quotes they don't really need in this case" is the far lesser of the two sins.
Agreed - she should be fighting for quality content that she believes in, in meetings, while some moustache-twirling villain in a top hat patronizingly says to her that shit she just said (but occasionally is convinced/won over). That's the dynamic that keeps a film studio (or hell even a record label, back in the day) vibrant, relevant, and yes oddly enough, making money for years.

Use before declaration is resolved at the type checker level, not during parsing. C-style casting isn’t context sensitive if you don’t mind treating the casting type has an expression and then pulling a type out of it in the type checker (or evaluator if dynamic).

Type checking is where all the complexity really is. Parsing and lexing are just easy things you do before the hard stuff.

What I was trying to say is that it is intractable to get the right data in many common cases, and in others unsolvable because of different premises. In the latter case of course it is good to be objective about what the premises are, but you can't derive a solution there often - it's possible but may not be worth the time needed.

Handwavy: often what you need is more rough-and-ready approximate statistics than any real logic. You are still approaching it with an objective mindset, but you are being realistic about the limitations of your data and modeling capabilities.

And at the end of the day a lot of what is important is also subjective.

Perhaps we watched a different lecture.

I saw a person capture the audience's attention with an anecdote about the Military and then used that as a metaphor to empathize with the audience about why they should care. Then he immediately gave a compelling and comedic anecdote with some improvisation demonstrating that it's a skill you can learn, also empathizing with the audience to address fears.

That he wrote an outline on the board is almost immaterial.

Also, notable that this is an academic lecture, which would be expected to be more structured and the power dynamic of the speaker and the audience are already clear, the students are there to learn from the speaker in a somewhat subordinate way. Very different than a TED-style talk, VC pitch, company all call, PR event etc... where that format falls apart unless used very creatively like Dimitri Martin does in his comedy
OP said it’s strategic, not that it’s protectionist for US companies (in fact, they pointed out that no US companies are competing in the next sentence that you didn’t quote). I think you’re both saying essentially the same thing.

I disagree pretty strongly. It has felt like Netflix is deliberately pushing more foreign language content with bad dubbing and often the structure and execution is pretty amateur (eg Ares). They seem to rely on the mere fact it is foreign for it to be bought into as indie or cultural, but the shows are just bad.

It strikes me as s deliberate marketing tactic. Instead of investing in creating nice, acclaimed dramas, they put that money into relatively more garbage shows that cater to mass audiences and try to find shortcuts to repurpose that content and repackage it to “kill two birds with one stone” and cater to the indie niche with it.

But the tactic doesn’t work, and now my Netflix menus are filled with super frustrating noise of these foreign shows, often which you can’t tell are foreign until you press play. It has made the platform nearly unusable to me.

The crazy thing is that I love a lot of foreign movies and shows. Amour, You Are the Apple of my Eye, Burning are some of my favorite films. But the things Netflix is pushing on me are more like network-level crap dramas with a clear attempt to make you feel like they are fancy merely by being foreign.

This is built on ROS by the looks of it. Most robotics users run everything in simulations anyway (have a look at UR arms). At a basic level look at Turtlebot. You can add all sorts of sensors, simulate environments and even realistic physics.

Even with things like pre-defined movement areas and collision boxes, arm planning software sometimes completely freaks out and produces weird plans that would probably break things. So it's always good to visualise before sending the commands to the physical system.

Well, I will admit that I am quite ignorant of what exactly a background check is, but I just don't see how such a morally fraught question can be legally allowed to be decided by anyone else than a psychologist.

In fact, considering the moral hazard, I don't even see how even using an AI, even as simple as "grep", helping that psychologist in the cost-minimization contexts of a private company would not result in an unacceptable slippery slope where the psychologist would end up just rubber-stamping the decisions of the AI and its creator ?
Maybe someone with a dual data "science" / psychology degree would be acceptable, but I'm guessing he/she wouldn't be able to use any "black box" AI...

are you so forgetful and careless with your words that you cannot even remember what you just wrote, a sentence that appears 3 paragraphs above your reply?

you specifically said "You almost certainly need to seek psychiatric care."

that sounds like you're pretending to be a medical doctor and clearly diagnosing me. and in-patient psychiatric care is an even bigger logic leap for you to take without even knowing anything about me. in-patient care is for the extreme cases of mental illness for people who present imminent threats of harm to themselves or others or who are catatonic or physically incapacitated. the vast majority of people with mental illnesses can function in day to day society and only need help with managing their illness. but you immediately lumped me in with the former group of extreme mentally ill patients, not the latter.

you don't know me. next time when you think you're doing the Internet a favor and telling someone living in extreme circumstances that they are "certainly" mentally ill, well, you should resist the urge to spew your worthless opinions on the Internet and conserve the electrons and close the tab without replying.

It’s somewhat understandable. The featured journalists are not only interviewed during work hours, they are collecting audio and notes (including behind the scenes material) on company time. It’s not just the Daily being insular, but that other journalism orgs aren’t incentivized to lend their journalists and work to the NYT for the NYT to profit from.
