As with programming languages or anything else, this would come with lots of trade-offs.

Whether it is programs like Photoshop and Excel or programming languages like C and JS, general purpose tools have a lot of appeal: learn the once, use it for anything.

Of course there is the opposite as well: niche tools that solve a specific problem in an opinionated way, like photo filter apps, Elm, R, etc...They have a lot of appeal too because they are better suited to the task at hand, but have limited use outside their specific domain.

But the most popular and widespread tools are always from the former group. R is great, but there are always going to be more python repos on github than R repos. If git was opinionated, it would serve a smaller niche better, but other niches worse, so it wouldn't be the industry standard it is today.

For better or worse, I've observed that powerful with footguns is always more popular than more limited options .

we deploy to test multiple times a day from out master branch after a Pull request is reviewed & merged. the deployment bundle (zip of the state of the code) that goes to test later goes to staging and production is the same across environments.

The only thing that changes is the configuration variables which are replaced at each env.
This ensures predictable deployments and if we want to rollback we just pick the last release bundle and re-deploy that.

Hi, very cool project! I'm getting more into security so apologies if this is a stupid question. Is the veracrypt drive, and therefore the HVM, linked to my specific instance of tails or can it be accessed by anyone with a tails usb and my veracrypt authentication details? Also, is it possible to have tails on one usb and a veracrypt drive on a seperate USB drive? How would that effect deniability at, say, a border?

> There's a variant used by less reputable retailers where you pretend the product was being sold for a big price then offer a "discount".

What’s the difference? I don’t follow Steam, but it used to be common knowledge that every month or so it would offer deep discounts and you should wait until then to buy and people joked about emptying their wallets due to it.

How about business to business sales where there is no listed price, even though the product is the same? Microsoft can sell Windows and Office at different prices to whoever it wants.

As long as the price is publicly available and transparent, I don’t care what it was an hour before I buy it or an hour after I buy it.

I also think it’s funny how people seem to relish clothing discounts as it seems to be causing the same dopamine hits that a scratch off lottery ticket does. Label the dress $200 crossed out, then put a red 50% off sticker on it $100, then put a nebulous sign on the rack saying 30% off clearance taken at register, and you have no idea what the thing costs until it gets scanned. And then the buyer acts pleasantly surprised at whatever price pops up.

I’d like to see a service that tracks price history for all goods and you can just look up how much something sold for and easily figure out it’s below average or above average. Like google flight price history.

Copyright is not Trademarks is not Patents.

They are different sorts of protection and rights for different sorts of intellectual property.

All/Most countries that have trademark IPR require the holder to defend that right or lose it. It's not US specific. That's because you get the right to that mark because you're using it and watching for other people not to try to misuse or pass off their product/service as yours.

You are not required to immediately defend copyright, because its a right you hold whether you publish your work or not. You have copyright on something basically as soon as it is fixed in a physical form (written/recorded etc).

Finally, with patents, you're not required to have it in physical form, but you are required to describe it to the patent office in a way someone "skilled in the art" could reproduce. If they do that without getting permission then they have violated your patent.

So your premise in your message is incorrect.
Gitflow is really meant for software that multiple released versions. It allows for applying bug and security fixes to older released versions. For a project that has a single released version, it really doesn't provide any benefit.

If that’s the case, then browsers allowing people to view and manipulate the source of a web page (both initial download and XHR requests) are aiding in that process. If the ask is to walk back decades of being able to do exactly this sort of local manipulation of received data, then this form of the Internet would be like cable or satellite television with permitted forms of interactivity.

Why bring content to the Internet if there is desire to change the rules and norms of how the Internet works? Why not roll a separate version of the Internet with those desired rules? Yes, laws exist to protect copyright, prevent theft, and forbid illegal access, but those laws are insufficiently aware of how the Internet operates with respect to things like client-server communication. In fact, the design of the Internet predates many (if not all) of these laws, and the specifications of how the Internet works are a de facto law expressing how clients and servers interact with one another. Should lawmakers give requirements to the W3C to specify desired and undesired operations on the Internet?

I genuinely ask these questions in good faith: they are simply follow-on thoughts of mine from taking your point as a premise. If my ideas seems extreme or exaggerated, then that’s simply where my mind goes first as opposed to necessarily being criticism.

I disagree, the problem is how those permissions are labeled and presented. Why does my flashlight app need to use my camera? Turns out you need camera permissions to light the flash. Why does this game need to read my photos and files to work? Turns out it needs to write some data to the external storage.

These permissions should never have been lumped together. At this point, the browser's "this extension needs access to all sites" is a joke, as every extension requests such a laughably broad permission.

I find your point 3 confusingly worded: the trigger conditions for the pandemic bonds are specific and essentially transparent, but have not yet been met. They are independent of any statement the WHO may or may not make about whether a particular outbreak can reasonably be called a "pandemic". This independence should be unsurprising, because investors want some kind of "clarity" about what it is they are investing in.

Whether or not the trigger conditions are too stringent for the bonds to be useful in dealing with the targeted crises, and whether or not the additional "clarity" provided by having well-defined trigger conditions is sufficient to manage risk for investors, are both separate concerns.
Because the driver was given an impossible task in order to save money for the company. They were required to both fill in information on a tablet and monitor the car. It's not even clear that monitoring a semi-self driving car is even possible. Constant vigilance for the 2% of edge cases where it might crash is harder than just driving. Uber had previously used two people to do this task but had switched to one person.

Executives must be prosecuted when their money saving results in deaths or else there is no incentive for them not to make this trade off.
If you turn every function into a microservice, then you can have hundreds of microservices. I still don't see the benefits though.
> So if you don't squash, and want to run bisect, you _have_ to ensure that all commits are clean and working. Easier said that done.

It can be done if the commits are separate logical units of work rather than work in progress commits. One approach I take is to take the diff between your branch and master, make a new branch based off of master and stage parts of that diff (parts that make a logical unit of work) and make a commit out of it. You can do that with commands like git apply with the relevant diff hunks.

Then, to test whether each commit works, you can run git rebase --exec "your-test-commands" master and it will apply each commit in your branch and run the test commands. If they fail, then you can fix the issue in that commit and run git rebase --continue to move onto the next commit.

This way, you can get a logical set of commits where each of them are in a working state.
Is this something typescript could fix? I've written a fair few union types with discriminants that work in the same way as rust enums.

In theory you can (on Android). There is an app called boinc. You can load work for some projects to your phone. I tryed it a few years a ago, but phones are really not made for a workload over a long time. Even with work just for the half cores and not 100% processor time the phone got very very hot. What works well is Raspis and co, at least with a heatsink and a fan.

Don't lead with a user story that exactly matches the stereotype, then. You're walking right into it.
likewise, I'm building a social-network-y site for retail investors (https://www.holfolio.com) to track and share what they and others are investing in.

One of the main points is you can see the history of what someone has invested in and get a picture of their whole portfolio. Some people currently post their trades on traditional social media but its really hard to keep track of, these fleets are only going to make it worse (helping me in the process?)
Exponential. It gives range and shape data, which a pure-optical system needs to infer from a 2D image. This kind of image processing is still an open problem in ML.

The usual metric for self-driving car success is "disengagements per mile", ie how frequently a driver needs to intervene to avoid a crash. From my anecdotal readings of Tesla Autopilot reviews, it's on the order of 0.1 per mile. For Waymo and Cruise, it's on the order of 0.01 per THOUSAND miles. That's a very different definition of "driver" than the one that Tesla Autopilot requires.

I don't know the total number of miles on all Teslas on Autopilot, but it has had much more than one accident.

EDIT: and that Waymo crash was not a self-driving error; it was T-boned by a human-driven car running a red light.

I would agree but...

From trying to understand parsing and RDPs I think I don't have the part of the brain required to understand it.

Not that it isn't simple, it is. But it seems examples (as usual) overexplain the simple things then overlook something that seems obvious but isn't.

The only time I managed to write a parser for simple math that wasn't an example was through the use of 'reverse production' parsing. Yes, it's the worse way, but it worked for me (this was a long time ago though)
AWS Session Manager: Get Rid of SSH Bastion Hosts
I'm not sure I follow.

Uber drivers can also drive for Lyft, and independently, thereby building up their own clientele. Uber connects drivers to clients and takes a cut off the top. Drivers can (and have) passed out their cards to me with direct lines. They can also get dispatches from Lyft.. WHILE entertaining offers from Uber and direct calls.

Uber drivers set their own rate by taking the job or not. The best analogy is a contractor and a GC. The GC needs work done at a certain rate, the contractor takes it or leaves it.

Drivers avail themselves to take rides or not on their own schedule, which is them setting the terms and conditions for providing their services. They aren't obligated to offer rides on the Uber platform, and can concurrently entertain offers from other platforms (Lyft, independent, etc).

We all know the intent of Uber was/is to connect people who want to ride-share in their spare time to people who need rides. It makes it easy for both parties and it's an improvement over taxis for all involved except taxi license holders. We shouldn't penalize progress because some Neanderthals want to make it their sole source of income (or eradicate ride sharing).

This is people peeing in the Napster pool all over again.
Both go and OCaml use LR parser generators, precisely because they make it easy to give excellent error messages.

Basically the key insight is that you can use the parsing automaton state to classify syntax errors, which makes it as easy as falling off a log to produce good messages. The paper originating this technique is Clinton Jeffery's TOPLAS 2003 paper “Generating LR Syntax Error Messages from Examples.” This is what go uses, and OCaml uses a more advanced version of this technique introduced by Francois Pottier in his CC 2016 paper "Reachability and Error Diagnosis in LR(1) Parsers".
I get that. but how would you allow the mixed content on a per site basis? sure I could use another browser that ignores the security just for this one page. how else would you do it without editing about:config and then switching back, is there a extension or something that can do that on a per-site basis?

It's a shame this isn't working in a secure way and out of the box on modern browsers.
We need legislation around liability for SIMs, as every single large financial institution seems to be using SMS messages as proof of identity. Better yet, we need legislation that protects individuals from liability if a business uses SMS as proof of identity.

Edit: For ATT, I don’t know what power they give their employees to change or bypass people’s passcode, but as a user, all you need to reset passcode are last 4 digits of account owner’s social, billing zip code, and access to one of the phone lines on the account where they will send an SMS to verify you’re one of the people on the account.

I would hope that for much stricter processes to reset passcode, like a notarized letter or showing passport and physically going to a store to prove identity.

So does Tails run as the root OS but displays a separate OS in a VM? For example, does it look like your booting into Windows when really it’s just a VM inside Linux? If so, does that Windows VM or whatever it is you choose act like what is essentially a read only OS?

If you own things and sell them for a capital loss you get a tax credit to use later.

If you sell for a capital gain within 12 months then you will pay tax on the full amount of profit from the sale. For individuals this is just added to your income tax.

If you sell for a capital gain having held the asset for over 12 months you get a 50% discount to how much profit is taxed.

The tax credit for a capital loss can be used to offset a capital gain but it gets applied before any discount is applied.

The difference is whether or not the product was actually being sold for a higher price. On Steam it is. As others point out, many places consumer law requires this to be true for a particular time period before something can be advertised as a discount.

> As long as the price is publicly available and transparent, I don’t care what it was an hour before I buy it or an hour after I buy it.

Most people don't agree with that, and in some places it's the law e.g. https://www.asa.org.uk/advice-online/promotional-savings-cla...

I can't help thinking that, whatever the merits of Lidar, Musk is boxed in, because Tesla has sold hundreds (tens?) of thousands of "self driving packages" for cars not equipped with Lidar, so changing course would not just mean raising prices on new cars, but retrofitting large numbers of existing cars at a ruinous cost.
