> I've seen people trying to get into a relationship (or even something more casual, but not a platonic friendship) get rejected because of the dreaded "green bubbles"

Good, fuck those people, I probably don't want to associate with them anyhow.

I consider this line of thinking to be on the same level as face tattoos, and social media posts about meals multiple times a week.
I'd read about an article how there is a significant "dark" black hat companies which do nothing but dig up into the open source codes to find the exploits. They invest big time to develop proprietary tools for autonomous scanning of latest vulnerabilities. Such exploits then get sold for millions of dollars. They do open source code scanning to everything from popular Python packages to popular Chrome extensions to Office plugins to Linux kernel to open source phone apps.

One might think that opening the source will lead to code reviews by many and fix security bugs. In my own experience with open sourcing few projects, I've not seen that happening. Vast majority of contributors aren't willing to spend a lot of time in reviewing security issues and fixing for you. In fact, virtually all contributors will send you patches that are often half assed and have security issues which you might unknowingly accept because all tests are passing, you don't have much time and in code reviews everything look ok. For things like iMessage, I suspect billions of dollars worth of important decisions are made by everyone from Jeff Bezos to the President of USA. In my opinion, open sourcing something like this would give a handsome payday to many black hat hacking groups including state owned agencies.

> First, producing different outputs from the same input brings the question of caching tools (e.g ccache, FastBuild), who assume the compiler is a pure function of its inputs.

Why should they have to? Shouldn’t they just be able to reach for any valid compilation of this particular object file and slot it in?

> Moreover, assuming your code and the compiler are correct, you might still end-up with a situation where the performance of the resulting binary differs depending on the planet's alignment at build time.

This is already the case due to your environment. If you have the wrong number of environment variables you might penalize your program’s performance by a significant amount already just because you misalign the stack!

> At this moment you don't know what's happening yet, so you might even tell them "it works on my machine, did you try to rebuild all?". And this might appear to solve the issue, if this time your coworkers are "lucky"!

This sounds like the situation already with nondeterministic bugs like races, albeit with the same binary?

> Have you ever tried, as a user, to diagnose a compiler bug? You spent many hours trying to minimize the input file that triggers the bug, so it's executable without needing the rest of your project, so you can send it to the compiler devs.

I deal with nondeterministic programs all the time…they’re a bit more difficult to file bugs for, but it’s still possible.
About the numbers: thanks for your input. I guess, you get more accurate results the more visitors you have. On my small sized blog I doubt the numbers and think, that GoAccess does not filter out some bots. You can try to determine them and filter them out, but well, that takes some time.

However, even if the numbers may not be accurate, you still see overall trends, which is valuable.

And thanks for the log-rotation trick. I will definitely make use of it.
This is the main reason I have been scratching my head thinking how the hell is NASDAQ going up. Though might just be sour that I didn't go back in after getting at the right time
I assume that permissions are given at application level, not at module/import level?

This means that if I write an application that requires filesystem access and has external dependencies, I'm essentially giving them access to the filesystem even if they don't need it.

These dependencies could silently check whether they have permissions and do something fishy only if that is the case.

It would be nice to be able to import dependencies in a nested sandbox but I guess it is not a simple problem.
Rural areas are far from not having crime, it is just much of it ends up not getting reported because by time the cops come, it is over, the people at fault are gone, and the cops got nothing to do other than harass the non-criminal people that are dumb enough to still be around. Rural police are 90% a money-making racket and the people know it. Threatening to call the police on someone in a rural area is considered a worse threat by most than directly threatening someone with a beating or deadly weapons.
If your tractor gets stolen, the only reason to call the police is for insurance purposes. Otherwise the only way you are likely to ever see that tractor again is to ask around and look for it yourself. Plus you gotta be pretty dumb to steal a farmer's tractor. Not only is it noisy as fuck, extremely obvious, and will take forever to actually get anywhere, but the person stealing it is at the mercy of the farmer that has all the time in the world to come out and either force you out by gunpoint or blast you from a half mile away.
You'd be surprised at how wrong that is.

Asians used to face a lot of discrimination in the US and very institutionalized one, not just of the "making fun of them by calling them Ching Chong" variety. There is a long and storied history, but it is never brought up because it provides some rather uncomfortable cognitive dissonances when trying to explain how Asian-Americans today are so much better off but other discriminated-against groups aren't. So you see the common trope where Asian-Americans and Indian-Americans are just passed over when talking about historical injustices because they don't fit the narrative.

The link below has a full history but, one of many points—

In 1882, Congress passed the Chinese Exclusion Act—the only United States Iaw to prevent immigration and naturalization on the basis of race—which restricted Chinese immigration for the next sixty years. The "Chinese Must Go" movement was so strong that Chinese immigration to the United States declined from 39,500 in 1882 to only 10 in 1887.

> I agree that there should be more funds that support all kinds of backgrounds so that we can increase the diversity of people in the VC space.

And what happens when a black-founder VC fund underperforms an Asian-founder VC fund?

Will we need another level of VC funds to fix that?

I wanna work at a company that:

- pays me a lot

- allows me to work from home

- does not expect me to read emails or anything in my free time (of course in special cases that's ok, just not the standard)

- has other employers I can learn from

That's it! I don't fancy any company for what they do. Because most likely you end up doing pretty much the same at every company.
No. Racism in its broadest, widely-accepted usage, refers to the treatment of people based on the belief that one race is superior to another. This program, as far as I can tell, makes no claims about any race being superior to another race.

> No, or at least, not exclusively.

But primarily, right? Bias plays a role, so everything else being equal, a black applicant will receive fewer callbacks than a white or asian one, but (and that's a big but) the primary issue is that usually not all other things are equal.

The average black person comes from a different socioeconomic background than the average white or asian person, so they'll usually not have the same level of education, but less so because of being discriminated against because of their race, but because of their class. More single-parent households, lower household income, their parents can't simply afford to hire tutors and put them through college etc etc.

That's what makes these things somewhat weird. Yeah, sure, a black guy from a rich family that attended MIT will have a harder time finding funding than his white or asian friends from the same background ... but he'll have a much easier time than some white kid from a broken home.

I believe two things to be true: class is the primary factor, not race. And it's more convenient to focus on race because it's much easier and feels less threatening to the (usually upper middle class and beyond) proponents. "We (as white people) need to share more" puts them in a group with (for the US) 60% of the population and is pretty abstract. Great for virtue signalling, terrible for concrete actions. "We (as rich people) need to share more" puts them in a much, much smaller group and suggests they could actually do something besides yelling at people to check their privilege: share some of the money they inherit. Great for doing something, terrible for virtue signalling because "well, put your money where your mouth is" is so obvious.
> Those scientists in Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, Finland, Norway, France, Spain, Italy are as good as Tegnell is.

I can't speak well of the Italian expert panel. On the day of the "reopening" (not a reopening, but I digress), May 4th, they quoted a non-public report saying that the worst case scenario (out of 92) would bring 150,000 Italians needing ICU care by June 4th. AFAICR, no other scenarios were made known.

The report was then leaked (or made known somehow). It had no author information, and contained a lot of old and inaccurate models, and totally arbitrary and unjustified statements. In short, it was utterly wrong.

A critique of the report (in Italian):

https://www.scienzainrete.it/articolo/fase-2-e-alcune-questi...

(second half, the first part is about some questionable policy decisions from a legal standpoint)

Some Italian experts also say that physical distancing and masks are useless (supporting an indefinite lockdown). The government itself said that masks were not effective until very recently.

There is also a lot of confusion (for the lay person) because many contradictory statements are often said.
> Counterpoint: Most smalltalk topics actually get people to give an almost pre-rehearsed response.

yeah, but you're supposed to then extrapolate on the other persons' pre-rehearsed response in order to escalate the conversation into something that flows without effort.

"What do you do for a living?"

"Mergers and Acquisitions."

"Oh. I have a friend that does nearly the same thing. They told me this anecdote, does that kind of thing ever happen to you?"

"Oh, as a matter of fact.."

Without small talk there is no sharing of useless trivia by which to use as a jumping off point into real conversation, unless there was some introduction or motivation behind the meeting, anyway.
I mostly agree with your points, but I still think compiler authors have dropped the ball by not putting as much effort as detecting cases where they have run optimizations based on undefined behavior as they should have. We’ve seen some of these be rolled back with flags for overflow or null checks (which I personally think is a bit too far in the other direction).
Anything and everything with tests implemented in the right languages can be used as a test suite for a compiler, though. So, I'd rather see that that was done systematically than trying to catch everything with the compiler's test suite.

I mean something like setting up something building and running the tests for everything included in Debian, homebrew and vcpkg and looking for regressions compared to the last release of the compiler.

Nice work! Every time I see the "de-Google-ing" posts, there are people in comments saying but can it do this or can it integrate with that Google product.

I'm working on a Google Analytics alternative myself [1] and we make it clear that it is not meant as a clone or a full blown replacement of Google Analytics.

Some people are fine running GA and are happy to integrate with Google Ads and the rest of the Google ecosystem.

On the other hand, some would prefer to focus more on privacy of their visitors or on not having to get cookie / GDPR consent or on having a faster loading website or support a more independent web etc. And alternative solutions to Google products such as these are more meant for those use cases.

If such a case succeeds given how much Amazon is is already doing to prevent coronavirus, say goodbye to economy recovery. Most companies aren't capable of doing even a fraction of the measures Amazon has put in place. If Amazon can be found liable here, pretty much every business in the country that tries and re-open will find themselves liable.

On the other hand, you might catch either program or compiler bugs before it's too late and it has shipped to production. I think this would improve the software, and I'm also not so sure a lot of time is spent on this, and it wasn't even something caught by SQLite devs, but rather an external project which SQLite decided to work around for now.
This is precisely how you achieve consistency, by adjusting for well-established differences in how different groups of people are treated. How else would you suggest achieving consistency, given that the status quo is not consistent? Surely by definition you need to depart from the status quo.

The problem in some of the states is that when it was becoming clear this wasn’t anything near the apocalypse that was promised, they refused to adjust course and relax restrictions.

Changing course in the US is seen as weak and politicians hate to do it, even when it’s the right thing to do.

Also: US media is in a bad place. They have lost their sense of civic responsibility and are blatant fear mongers now. It’s lead to a lot of hysterics in the US.

KetoBodz Reviews:Pills,Dite-{Weigh Loss},Ingredients|Cost and Buy?
Keto about?

It's anything but difficult to gain weight, crunching at snacks while watching visit most loved sitcom, stress eating, enjoying sweets is something we as a whole are liable of sooner or later or the other. These undesirable nourishments cause us to feel extraordinary yet catastrophically affect our bodies. Disposing of its eventual outcomes; the additional weight; is extreme. Weight reduction is intense. It takes difficult work, giving up on food and the most noticeably awful; persistence. The conventional counting calories systems set aside a long effort to show results, which is the reason KetoBodz Keto will be your new closest companion.

> At what age do kids embrace Markdown as the single source of truth for their documents?

Anecdotally, never for most students. I know many of my college classes required submissions in Microsoft Word format.
The article does directly address this, at considerable length. I'll quote just the subsection headings from that section, each of which is followed in the text by many paragraphs of explanation.

One: As Stuart Russell observed, if you get radio signals from space and spot a spaceship there with your telescopes and you know the aliens are landing in thirty years, you still start thinking about that today.

Two: History shows that for the general public, and even for scientists not in a key inner circle, and even for scientists in that key circle, it is very often the case that key technological developments still seem decades away, five years before they show up.

Three: Progress is driven by peak knowledge, not average knowledge.

Four: The future uses different tools, and can therefore easily do things that are very hard now, or do with difficulty things that are impossible now.

Five: Okay, let’s be blunt here. I don’t think most of the discourse about AGI being far away (or that it’s near) is being generated by models of future progress in machine learning. I don’t think we’re looking at wrong models; I think we’re looking at no models.

All that shows is that race is not strictly biological or genetic, which is already widely recognized.
Also, NOT just exploitable with physical access....remote code execution is not just a theoretical fantasy.
I agree with the title of this submission (and there are plenty of examples) but this particular example is very bad in my opinion. He replied with a trollish comment and got blocked.

It's a 800k followers account too so the amount of noise they get is high and chances are the account is managed by multiple people or even automated tools.

It is worth noting that the "self-imposed" lockdown and social distancing is due to the recommendations (and in some aspects regulations) made by FHM (the Swedish department of health where Tegnell works).

So you would prefer to keep open exploits around and approach with security-by-obscurity?

Somehow I think Apple can muster the resources to respond to vulnerabilities in exactly the same way you’re claiming they respond to open source exploitation. You may have a point with much smaller projects, but this is apple and they can easily outfund exploiters before there’s mass exploitation according to your analysis of increased attention.
