Nope, they don't recognize it as anything except a Schedule 1 substance. That's why it's weird that the weed shops are open but we're in here arguing about how those silly religious people should stay home.

As for the religion of cannabis, there's community, shared culture, ritual consumption of a specially-prepared substance, believers say how much it improves their life, etc. I even used to buy weed from here: http://coachellavalley.church/
Agree fully about ways of transporting that includes walking. I have seen many pictures of people using guns for intimidation. I remember one picture of a black kid in Charlottesville laying down with the hands up and armed protesters were pointing guns and rifles at him. To me this is a pretty serious offence.

I think we mostly agree about everything except on the margins.

No full auto for sure, semi? I don't really know. As a soldier I never used full auto in training or in action other than for the memes. It is just not a reasonable way to spend your ammo and aim well.

The issue with rifles is not really that the stats show they are dangerous but the potential they have for example in school shootings so if possible I would prefer to keep them out of the hands of civilians. Perhaps banning them is too much and instead strict background checks.

As for sharing, I don't really know enough about it. There would need to be background checks for that person as well as if they would buy the weapon I suppose? Perhaps some minor way of tracking this, should be possible now that we have Internet. Weapons should be handled with care, if you have to take 5 min to share it I am OK with that.

Why not implement social distancing rules and require proper ventillation or even outdoor services? Religious orgs are non-profits that can't survive without attendance. Prohibiting the free excercise of religion is a clear violation, especially given that other unprotected gatherings are allowed with less restrictions. To many it's an optional gathering, to others it's a "church vs state" fight, but the right was esrablished to protect the people that consider these gatherings as important.

Sepration of Church and state is a two way road,you can't be ok with this and then have a problem with sharia law and honor killings. If religious law cannot force governmental law to accept a contradicting outcome that is acceptable only because the government in turn is restricted from telling religious organizations how to conduct their affairs. If this is a public health concern, rules must be established for everyone with no exceptions. If there are exceptions, religious organizations get priority because they are specifically protected along with freedom of speech and aseembly as the first right of the people.

Let me spin it a bit for you due to all the riots and protests that are happening, majority (most?all?) Gatherings to plan and mobilize civil rights movement protests happened in protected Church assemblies (people sometimes like to conveniently excluse MLK's tile of Reverend). Today it's a virus, next month a terrorist attack, maybe then an enemy invasion and natural disaster. I understand this opinion will be unpopular here but you must understand OUR equal application of rights has no exception. Period. For example,You can say freedom of speech can't apply if you're shouting "fire in a crowd", but you can't say Jack can shout fire but Christian Emily can't. It's not just because Emily is being picked on for being religious,but also because she's a person guaranteed equal treatment.

These days, Android 2.3 Gingerbread devices are essentially obsolete even from a strictly hardware point of view. Most of those were actually very well supported by the old CyanogenMod releases, but few people would even bother trying to bring up something reasonably modern like pmOS by building on that work, the specs are just that bad.

The Principles of Object-Oriented JavaScript by Nicholas C. Zakas (120 pages).
The rise of React
To me this seems like a poor protocol design that created an opportunity for an implementation error, and that opportunity was seized.

In the initial authorization request rather than passing a string with an email address, the caller could pass a boolean `usePrivateRelay`. If true generate a custom address for the third party, if false use the email address on file.

With that one change the implementer no longer has the opportunity to forget to validate the provided email address, and the vuln is impossible.
I'm curious to see where this goes.

The skeptical part of me worries that the docstring is being used to select which code to borrow from, so this technique probably wins and loses based on "the wisdom of crowds" unless there is some other code quality scoring.

I have personally been interested in genetic programming and have written something similar (except the function signature and unit tests become the fitness function).

This is an underappreciated factor, particularly for long-haul flights. For transatlantic/transpacific flights the fuel can be over a third of the total takeoff weight of a modern airliner. Burning that mass off as you go means you get more efficient the longer you've been flying.

Even if/when batteries match the energy density of aviation fuel (appropriately adjusted for motor/engine efficiency), they will still be at a substantial disadvantage for long flights.
Is it really that much easier to build space robots to cover as much breadth of function as one astronaut-engineer in a space suit?
If the governments were smart, they would not pick and choose specific activities and industries to allow and disallow, but instead simply prohibited closely packed or indoor gatherings (by whatever measurement of "closely-packed" makes epidemiological sense) and left it at that. That way, if a church wanted to stay in service they could simply figure out how to comply, like by doing it outside and 2 meters between people.

But no, governments instead editorialized and said these kinds of businesses are cool and these aren't, turning it into a politically charged value judgment of this industry vs that activity.
Malware is, by definition, malicious software. Your bank attempting to prevent people from stealing your money is not malicious. Yes, your bank is insured and if your money is stolen you have a decent chance of getting the money back eventually, but not until you're able to prove it was fraud and that process finishes. That could take months in some cases, and you're missing all your money in the mean time, which is long enough that for many people they wouldn't be able to pay bills and could face eviction in the mean time.
I never meant to imply that you could use such tricks without considering the lifetimes of references. Manual memory management already requires being mindful of those though so it's nothing unique to the described situation. Yes Rust offers an advantage here, but it's the same one it offers everywhere else so it doesn't seem relevant to me.

That being said, it seems like most cases where such an approach is worthwhile involve large nested data structures that involve lots of pointer chasing to traverse. All cases I've encountered so far were bulk stores that didn't involve actively interacting with external objects.
I didn't say it ruined your discourse in your niche. I'm not saying Twitter can't be good to any people.

We just got back from watching the launch in person from Cocoa, FL. It seemed as if ten thousand people have come out to watch the rocket climb up. Everyone cheered hard, and spirits were unbelievably high despite traffic and rain.
HTTP clients in programming languages are not as smart as web browsers when it comes to verifying SSL certificate chains. For example, if the chain presented by the server is missing intermediate certificates, modern web browsers are able to fetch those intermediate certificates without issue. Most HTTP clients do not do that though, and instead will throw a cryptic error, something along the lines of "unable to get local issuer certificate". This is known as a 'incomplete chain' error.

Earlier this year I added SSL verification to a website uptime monitoring service I run (https://www.watchsumo.com/docs/ssl-tls-monitoring) and it wasn't anywhere near as simple as I thought it would be. There's so many edge cases regarding verification, and languages usually don't expose the full errors in exceptions, then you have errors like this which only affect a subset of clients.

The alternative is to promote JS whitelisting, but then you get a bunch of web developers screaming at you because they somehow feel like they have the right to run arbitrary code on their visitor's computers --- even to do things which shouldn't require such invasiveness.

I wonder if popularising banners on sites saying "You have JavaScript enabled, please disable it for a safer browsing experience [link to click that discusses all the negatives and how to do JS whitelisting]", in direct opposition to what some sites are doing, may have an effect...

(I've been doing that for over 2 decades now, and I naturally avoid web-app sites, but that's getting harder these days. Twenty years and I still have less than 100 sites I trust to run JS on.)
> between an 18 yr old and 10 yr old

Nope, this was more like a 10 year old being savagely beaten by a 30 year old very strong, very violent, out of his mind MMA fighter who wanted to kill the 10 year old.

What you're saying makes sense for some breeds. The whole point was that pitbulls are more agressive and violent than other breeds.
Random antibody tests are how we found out it spread further than originally estimated, and is less deadly than originally estimated. The denominator increased, the numerator stayed the same, and R0 was revised upwards.

What this is really about is Qualcomm. They have inadequate competition and that allows them to abuse everybody else.

In a competitive market, open source drivers win. Look at the desktop market -- nearly everything is open source, and the biggest holdout is nVidia, because for a while there nobody was challenging them on performance. Now that AMD has competitive GPUs again, not only does that provide a competitive option with open source drivers, nVidia is now losing market share to them.

OEMs don't really like proprietary drivers. They're a pain. Whenever new driver versions come out, it becomes the OEM's problem to test and distribute them instead of having the Linux kernel team deal with that hassle. The open source drivers also generally have fewer bugs (because anybody can fix them), which leads to fewer support calls and more satisfied customers who make repeat purchases.

And customers naturally prefer hardware with longer hardware support, when it's available.

What we need is more competition for Qualcomm. Google could do that if they wanted to -- throw some money at making competing phone chips. Apple does it, why can't they? And then publish open source drivers and sell the chips to anybody.

We also have AMD as a dark horse now. The Ryzen 4000 series goes down to 10 watts -- it's so power efficient you could squeeze it into an Android tablet as-is (and then be a lot faster than most tablets), and it wouldn't take much on AMD's part to do something that could work in a phone. Android is an open source system with apps that run on the JVM, so the architectural difference shouldn't matter much.

Or we could get the antitrust authorities to stop letting Qualcomm buy every competitor that springs up, which they've been doing for years.

But you solve the competition problem and you get open source drivers. Along with all the other benefits of real competition.
That's not because of NASA's poor work though, much of the cost bloat there was due to the legislation that dictated how those programs had to operate, like sole-sourcing components, requiring use of Space Shuttle components furthering vendor lock in, etc. It's not a testament to NASA's failings, its a testament to politicians' self-serving legislation.
Yes it's not intrinsic to the relationship per se but in the implementation.

Monetary savings would probably be the main motivator for most people. Being seen as virtuous is also a huge motivating factor. That kind of shower being installed by default in hotels, rental properties, and new construction puts a tiny barrier to people being motivated enough to switch.
There's lots of words like that but you're ignoring the perception framing the reality.

Usage of the word within the in-group may mean one thing but from the out-group it means a whole different thing.

You're basically calling yourself a slave and justifying it with blissful ignorance.

You're saying 'words mean what I say they mean and I'm ignoring all shades of meaning but the ones I choose'.

and you can't see that in a professional culture if some people are "suits" and some people are "geeks" it's a drastic disadvantage situation in favour of stereotypes over reality.

And plus bro I wouldn't call you bro at the office but you'd surely call me a geek.

> C++ supports it in the Standard Library, for all the standard containers.

I don't know what the situation is today, but in the past, the GCC standard library containers had non-trivial destructors when running in debug mode. Ensuring their proper invocation was required to avoid dangling pointers in their book keeping. Non-obvious and painful to debug.

That is an entirely legimitate point, and one I confess I had overlooked (I was referring to the HN title).

RAII is the only use case I was speaking of there. Way back up thread the original post I responded to was talking about arena allocators in comparison to a generational GC and finalizers. The point is that a generational GC doesn't handle finalizers well, but neither does an arena allocator!

> This is such a brilliant comment: "so you don't develop bad habits."

Yes, true, but on the other hand, singing comes naturally to some people which makes me think that most other people have already developed bad habits before they even started singing. At least that would hold for me when I started singing.

Therefore I'd say that the technical aspect of singing == unlearning of bad habits.
An order of magnitude is a stretch, I think. But a 25% savings is probably pretty doable, which drops the cost to $82.5M. Consider that Richard Garriott allegedly paid $30M for his trip to the ISS, so if you have three passengers and one crew, you're turning a profit of $7.5M
Let's be honest. You have never said something that is considered bad to someone you didn't like or disagree with? I doubt it. Does that now mean your opinion is null and void?

Finally picked up Strunk and White after years of procrastination and so far it has been a tour-de-force consolidating/spelling out the knowledge I picked up along the way (ESL). I found mentally swapping out words about writing for words about programming to be fun.
I’m surprised any web site is doing something this risky to themselves. Say I’m an attacker. I visit their website, and they attempt to open a connection to me. I accept the connection and send back a target payload to their scanner, which is certainly less well tested than their public website’s software. Even better, that seems exceptionally hard to prosecute: “wait, didn’t you go out of your way to ask the defendant to send you that data?”
I think the isolation is a risk to the community too. We have to allow people some social contact.

Because it's the first time in a decade the US has done it, and done it in a way that is significantly less expensive, paving the way for much easier access. It's a minor historical event in terms of human achievement since, as you said, we've done it before. But it's a major economical event in the history of space exploration, and historic for the potential that represents.

I wouldn't say that many in VA are licensed, because in VA (and many other states), you don't need a license to purchase or carry firearms. Most states don't require any sort of training to buy a firearm. And every single state requires a background check for any firearm sold by a dealer, (thus the infamous "gun show loophole"), this is a federal law.

Concealed carry does require a license (and sometimes a "training" class, which is laughable at best. (Seriously, I have never known anyone fail this class in my state. A driving license test probably has a 100 times higher failure rate.). And of course, as we are talking about a pro gun rally, carrying concealed defeats the purpose.

I'm a 2nd amendment proponent, but I've been in too many public gun ranges, too many gun shows, and been around too many idiot gun owners to think that the firearms training the vast majority of states (maybe every state?) has or provides is nearly enough. Owning a firearm in this country solely amounts too: have you yet been convicted of a felony or smoked weed?

He spent the first 17 years of his life in South Africa. We could say his personality and character are the product of South African culture.

If he was born in the US, he would probably not be interested in manufacturing. Culturally, the US has moved away from manufacturing, and most of it is being offshored.

> The American nationality isn't fundamentally based on the circumstances of your birth.

Tell that to people pursuing the American citizenship that were born in American territories like American Samoa or Puerto Rico, where, unlike US states, they get drafted, they cannot vote and they're not considered US citizens.
A good rule of thumb is to abstract inherent complexity and not incidental complexity.

Loggers are examples of incidental complexity. There is nothing fundamental about sending the warning by email vs slack vs irc. The way to deal with this is not to keep adding more and more options, because you end up with combinatorial growth in the number of interactions, it's to make it company policy that you only use email and discipline anyone who doesn't.
