> the previous process which was to just call a judge of a secret FISA court which no one is really allowed to know the details of.

This is simplifying the process to imply it’s nothing more than just a phone call away. I do not think any court works like that. They still have to argue their case before a judge of the court which also allows third parties to submit material in the case.

Simply saying “no one” is suppose to know about these courts is portraying this process as something unconstitutional and nothing more than a secret society of government friends. If by no one you actually mean the public, then you have a point. There’s national security concerns around these type of things that you’re ignorantly ignoring.

You act as if this court has no existed for over 40 years and under multiple administrations from both side of the aisles.
People in meteorological community still pretty much use fortran for everything, from input data processing, the atmospheric models themselves, to visualization. They already did distributed computing with fortran decades before kubernetes is a thing. Same with air pollution modeling (which is a subset of meteorology but handled by environmental engineers). I used to dabble with those models when I was studying environmental engineering.
Reminds me of this one from a few years ago: https://edition.cnn.com/style/article/classic-cars-abandoned...

Seems like straight out of a boys book - abandoned shed, dozens of cars stored in there, nobody knows that they're so valuable. I don't know anything about cars but from looking at the pictures in the OP, I can't help but think that some of them would be worth quite a bit? Certainly more than the scrap metal value?
Since typescript has no runtime, it doesn't really need to be compiled, you just strip away all the type annotations. There are tools like SWC[1] that can process TS in milliseconds if you want to skip the type checking.

I wonder how many orders actually forced anyone to stay at their home?

Most that I'm thinking of didn't actually force you into your home, business was restricted, large gatherings... but it wasn't a situation where you weren't allowed to go outside. Maybe some did but I can't think of any.

How can you realistically avoid this for certain products though? For mobile for example, you've got the iOS and Android store policies to go through, the iOS and Android SDKs, and whatever restrictions Safari (e.g. no proper PWAs) and Chrome have.

No they also occurred for the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic which also required people to ware face masks in public.
When describing the input stream back-pressure problem:

> To mitigate this problem, a pause() method was added. This could solve the problem, but it required extra code; and since the flooding issue only presents itself when the process is very busy, many Node programs can be flooded with data. The result is a system with bad tail latency.

Are they saying that even with correct use of pause() there are still issues?
No. Without some kind of signature check (SHA256 or SHA512 or something more modern - just say No). it's tempting though :)

I know several very successful actuaries who also write a fair bit of advanced code.

China Rivalry May Put the U.S. Back in the Coup Business
Most certainly. All the things I have enumerated have turned around completely.

Most (all?) of these arcane laws were presented in their time as justified curtailing of individual freedoms for the common good. You could not oppose war without going to jail - one could, and did, argue that such any such opposition was detrimental to resolve and ultimately the victory itself, leading to untold casualties. And yet here we are - oppose all you want!

Every oppressive law is introduced with justification of needing to protect the public, but finding the balance is not as simple as saying "yep, this might help in our fight against blah". The balance needs to be found in accordance with the Bill of Rights, in particular the 4th amendment.

You've fallen victim to a widespread disinformation campaign. There were orders to close restaurants, ban public gatherings, etc., but general orders to stay at home were not issued during the Spanish flu. (It is true that many cities required people to wear face masks in public, and I agree that's almost surely constitutional.)
I think there is a bit of a difference of opinion and a lack of conclusive evidence (but no shortage of questionable evidence), on the degree of risk involved in various activities involving this pandemic.

Now I'm not marching in the street or anything like that, but the more I'm told we must follow authoritarian orders without significant compelling evidence, while dissenting voices are being censored, the more appealing the idea is to me, just as a matter of principle. Favor force over reason, and you might get the same in return.

Lem is such a witty writer and his short stories are so thoroughly enjoyable. He's very clever!

His work isn't like Terry Pratchett but I find that there is a commonality in their cleverness.

Which again brings me back to something I'm still not understanding - How is Deno's package management better than NPM if it is extremely similar to NPM, but slightly less secure?

I'm only asking because lots of people seem to be loving this new dependency management, so I'm pretty sure I'm missing something here.
I will even go farther and say that I feel like I have now been playing the same game for 25 years. The FPS genre gets some new tricks, but it's still the same basic game with a few new mechanics and tricks- I can pick up a game I have never played before and generally be reasonably competent at it within a few minutes- a stark contrast to when I picked up tribes for the first time and was completely useless in online play for at least a week. Graphics increases have been both incremental and with diminishing returns in recent generations.
Our society is not lacking in people who are either well-informed or resourceful enough to explore the subject, or both.

I think Deno is a mistake at this point... Yes we thank Ryan Dahl for his huge contributions to integrating libuv and v8 outside of a browser to create node.js but a lot of work has been created by a huge ecosystem of developers after this. I think this de-facto fork of node.js will only serve to create fragmentation, and confuse product owners about which platform to use.
Sometimes it's ok to think "this project isn't for me" and just leave it be. The cynical-security-concern act is boring.
Not sure why you’re being downvoted. Scaling systems at companies with a lot of money is very different from designing system to be reliable and performant and with reducing spend being a real goal.

Some companies need to take a much harder look at their spend than others regardless of where you deploy.

But in seriousness, Go compiles like lightening for me. But yeah, I think everyone has their own needs when they choose their tools. I choose Node for its speed at development and runtime.

I've heard about them being used for an opposite reason. Rather than for security, they are used in places where you don't want to risk them interfering with other equipment, like a room with radar equipment that might be sensitive.
It’s more about having your representative government voice the voters concern than anything. Not that this is important or that the government doesn’t have the power to implement this. It’s just the branch of government which has the power to implement is in question.

Best Coding Related Artwork Ever
The Nick Coghlan quote seems a bit out of context - sure, there are all these things it does that multiprocessing doesn't do, but multiprocessing allows concurrency at all and this doesn't. The comparison makes sense if it's talking about no-shared-state concurrency, but this PEP is quite clear that it's only proposing no-shared-state ... single-threaded operation.

The rest of the section is sparse on what you actually do with it. It says that it "has the potential to be a powerful tool" but not what you do with the power. It says it's about "enabling the fundamental capability of multiple isolated interpreters" but it's not clear what the capability brings you. The only thing with some details is the first sentence - "Running code in multiple interpreters provides a useful level of isolation within the same process." But what is the level? It sounds like it gives you isolation for most things but not all, which is about as useful as a face mask with a breathing hole cut out in it.

It'd help to see a concrete answer of something you can build with this that you can't build without it (or perhaps not as easily/performantly/reliably/etc.). The Ceph PR, where they do something similar themselves (https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/14971), gives a good answer: "Notably, with this change, it's possible to have more than one mgr module use cherrypy." (But it's still not clear to me why the mgr can't just use multiple Python interpreters... ceph-mgr is kind of an amalgam of various useful services for your Ceph cluster, and it's never been clear to me why it has to be "the" manager with some modules instead of various independent services you can turn off/on as you need.)

we did this to ourselves. we built these tools that are now at the disposal of people with malicious intentions. in another thread about surveillance of WFH employees everyone is aghast that managers would use such tools. again: we did this to ourselves.

you can shift the blame any number of times around the loop of responsibilities

it's not my fault it's my boss's fault -> it's not my fault it's the government's fault -> it's not my fault it's the constituency's fault -> it's not my fault it's the business's fault

and so on. someone has to admit fault and break the loop. for my part this year i left a dod funded project even though the money was easy.
> a false sense of security is worse than having (knowingly!) no security at all.

Agreed. If you know that you are insecure you're less likely to pass sensitive information over the connection.

IMO the culprit is browser behavior. For instance, when visiting unencrypted HTTP sites in Chrome you may or may not notice an unobtrusive, greyed out "Not Secure" label in the URL bar. Visit your own self-signed certificate dev site though, and Chrome will give you an error wall with nothing to click, and you have to type "thisisunsafe" to pass (the page does not tell you that typing "thisisunsafe" will get you through).

Perhaps the reasoning is that if a site is served unencrypted it shouldn't be serving sensitive information, whereas an invalid certificate is an easy indicator of something amiss... but wow, talk about obtuse.

Your concern is definitely valid though, and I'm concerned about it too.
This is an interesting system. I have worked with this technology on large and small scales, and it's a lot less accurate than you'd think. You have no hope of sending a police cruiser to check out a single gunshot based on the outputs of this system. But a single gunshot won't generate a police call in many cities as it is, so no change there. But a gang war? Sure, that will get the phone lines going and also generate many data points to help pinpoint the location using this system. So many factors affect the speed of sound through air, that the problem becomes one of those logarithmic "How many more microphones do you want to install to eke out this tiny bit of accuracy?" kinds of things. I'm not sure it's useful to point to what cities are saying about it, either. The technology itself is a Hard Problem, but I'm also 100% sure many law enforcement bureaucrats will use any excuse to keep money flowing into their budgets, even if the money is earmarked for something that doesn't work (or doesn't work well).
This exists for wasm too; it’s super easy with wasm-bindgen. I wrote a program with multiple layers, worked flawlessly. (Promise in a future in a promise created by Rust and passed back to JS)
> DNS-over-HTTPS was the big one for me. Mozilla betrayed us here.

Betrayal indicates some intent to harm users; the intent of DoH is clearly to safeguard users. However, the rollout was absolutely hamfisted & shortsided.

It's notable that the DoH deployment is about the only example here of Firefox harming users. Compare that with Google rewriting Chrome's code to hobble uBlock Origin & leave users more vulnerable to nefarious ad tech.

The former was Mozilla putting user safety first (in a poorly handled way) while the latter was clearly Google doing the opposite.
The thing is, you can write a perfectly normal fortran code, and instantly gain speedup (CUDA, distributed computing with OpenMP, etc) just by enabling some compiler flags. You can't do this in C/C++ as you have to deliberately write your program to use those tech. Also, vector/matrix operations are first class in fortran and you don't need to rely on 3rd party libs.
> Okay, be skeptical. I didn't want to void our support contract over finding out.

Really? Your support contract would be voided if you automated certificate renewal? If what you're saying is true, the problem isn't with short renewal times, it's with your absurd support contract. Automatic renewal is the industry standard at this point. If anything, your support contract should be voided if an error occurs because you failed to automate this. I suppose it's possible that your support contract is that absurd, but given it sounds like you didn't even check, it seems a lot more likely that you don't know how to automate it and refuse to learn.

You don't get to critique Let's Encrypt, a system built with automatic renewal as a fundamental component, if you refuse to use the very simple to use tools[1] they provide for automatic renewal. Maybe it's the support contract's fault, maybe it's your fault, but it's definitely not LetsEncrypt's fault that you're stuck in 2010 through incompetence or bad contract negotiation. You could spend literally 5 minutes per server and never have this problem again.

Talking about white privilege causes reduction in support for politicians
I think as a general rule a court will never make a ruling on constitutional grounds when a ruling on procedural grounds will suffice.

The natural law argument is I think always one of last resort.
https://react-etc.net/entry/goodbye-node-js-deno-is-a-fresh-...
I've noticed that the more time I spend with pen and paper before starting to type, the better the resulting program is. It's more natural to me, and maybe everyone, to just start typing feverishly with the end goal in mind, hoping to roughly get it working quickly before the ball of spaghetti gets too complicated. That's fun, but I've learnt not to do that. Unless it's a one-liner, every minute spent on paper first saves an hour or day later.

Also I refactor as I go (which I learnt about decades later than I should have), striving to get the naturally emerging structure as clear as possible, in every way – data structures, single-purpose functions, variable names etc. That's apart from the general structure I plan initially, but planning things first makes the refactoring infinitely easier. So, for me it's kind of a combination of the two.
Both sides: courts are supposed to apply the law to the facts. Lawyers guide judges in their arguments, and the court weighs each one, resolving conflicts through tests and precedent.

Read the text of the decision before bringing politics into it.

IANAL, but browsing the text:

- The ruling cites the Wisconsin constitution.

- Governors can issue emergency orders (and maybe rules?) effective for 150 days.

- There's a distinction drawn between orders and rules. It doesn't matter if it's declared as an order, if it invokes the powers reserved for rules, it's a rule.

- Some reasons the court found it to be a rule: it applies to a general class (all residents), and defines new crimes (non-compliance)

- Criminal penalties can only be invoked for properly-promulgated rules.

- Therefore, it's a rule, not an order.

- Can it be a valid emergency rule? The court cites an example of a forest fire, there's no time for deliberation.

- The end date is ambiguous and this emergency is long-lived, therefore it could be brought for deliberation like a normal rule.

Then there's lots of handwringing about "an unelected official imprisoning whoever she sees fit", which is very handwavey and makes me suspect:

- The emergency rulemaking machinery of Wisconsin is vaguely defined, so there's not a specific rebuttal.

- There might have been some judicial activism here.

Ideally, the court would grant a stay on the enforcement of the decision, to give her time to properly promulgate the rule.

If the legislature resists, or the court doesn't grant the stay, that sucks, the bars and restaurants will open, people will get sick and die. Or maybe the Republicans will turn out correct and everything is fine.

It may be a boneheaded decision, but there's no legal recourse for bad policy correctly followed.

clojure.jar comes with tools.deps. It needs jvm as well though.
To be the rubber duck, if wiping the cache at each build is a risk to your CI, what could you do to keep your CI up?

1 - not wipe the cache folder at each build? It's easy and secure. Oh and your build will be faster.

2 - use a cached mirror of the deps you use? It's like 10min to put in place and is already used in companies that care about security and availability anyway.

3 - you have https://deno.land/x if you want to put all your eggs in the same npm basket
