> Not being able to downvote a direct response stops the first impulse, which is sufficient to deter many, if not all people.

I think probably the most important thing is that it clearly communicates what the expected behavior is. I don't think it's immediately obvious that downvoting a response to you is would be considered impolite. (After all, people down-vote things because they happen to disagree all the time; what's the difference if it's in response to something you wrote or in response to something someone else wrote?) But if it's clear that's the social norm, I think most people would just go along with it.

Adding an extra few seconds to retaliation probably does have an effect, but only on people who would consider breaking the social norm anyway.
But those are ordinary problems of any sort of translation.
It's shocking that jobs came back before the lockdown ended nationally.

Especially shocking that retail hiring would pick up as protestors shut down streets and rioters loot and burn down retail businesses.
I do have some VC backed companies that did the same recently. Dog-walking, for example.
Small houses are not required for cabin fever.
The claim was that it made it worse. How is sharing the same /64 worse than sharing the same IPv4 address?

On top of that, you don't actually know that it's a /64. The customer could have a /56. The customer could have a /128, which some mobile ISPs do. The customer could have a /128 with the ability to request arbitrarily many of them from the ISP, allowing the same trick with one IP per outgoing connection but causing the pool to be shared across all the ISP's customers. The ISP could, in principle, allow the customer to request an arbitrary number of non-contiguous address ranges of an arbitrary size and use them for an arbitrary duration before reassignment to a different customer. Nothing really requires it to be a single /64 forever.

> I believe her WeChat account was very closely monitored, more than the average Western user.

Be that as it may, it doesn't explain why WeChat appears to be storing or transmitting plaintext passwords. That's incredibly alarming, if true. As are the implications of such a design.
I think that this is common knowledge in market microstructure, but I've read about this specific relationship between market makers and adverse selection in the book, "Trades, Quotes and Prices".
Like all things, it depends. My SO has had classrooms with >50% of the kids on IEPs. My SO has also had classrooms with <10% of the kids on IEP. The school generally has about 25% of the kids on IEPs.

> These are the things we need to copy- not the technology.

This is only my own subjective opinion: the worst thing that we could copy from the US is their business mindset. It destroys society, states, fair competition, and at the end the core values of capitalism. Their mindset gave them leadership but now is about to destroy their society.
We have to find our own path.
If you mean they give a different answer specifically for you, then you would have to mirror your requests to multiple providers and the root servers to see who is not telling the truth. Perhaps build a web UI like this [1] or write a script to select some of your commonly requested names and query all the servers. At times you can expect answers to differ, as people change DNS and TTL will expire from caches at different times. Some sites may give a different IP based on the source location of your DNS client if they are doing GSLB and not using Anycast.

In a script you might use the "dig" command with options like this so you can see when the TTL is about to expire.

dig @some_server +noall +answer some.domain

Except the nuances between 'investing' and 'fixing' are a core part of the article's argument.
Sure, that’s a solution, but its necessary only because of a limitation that only exists because its a macro that needs to look into the code to rewrite it. It also adds extra (cognitive) overhead that such functions are always themselves asynchronous and the return value are channels - they can never just return a raw value - which limits what you can do with them or how you can call them or pass them elsewhere.

I mean, yes, usually it isn’t a problem at all, but it IS a limitation of core.async that wouldn’t need to exist if it had tighter integration into the language.
> "Clean up your room", "Clean your room up."

I've noticed (although can't remember an example right now) that sometimes the sentence can have a slightly different meaning if the preposition goes to the end.

Another thing with English is that the word order is very important as it conveys a lot of meaning; in, for example, Slavic languages it is less critical as meaning relies heavily on various word forms.
> and if you want to sell your soul to the finance industry

What do you mean when you say the finance industry? It's a pretty big field. Is an online bank the same as some real time trading platform?
Also, why is it selling your soul? Is Google / Facebook "better" (that is - more moral) than a fintech company ?
Maybe I'm an outlier but I'm old enough, and I think the phone/screen thing is a fad. The moment more natural peripherals become usable the screen will go the way of the landline. (I mean things like AR in your contact lenses, input through gesture and dance via "wearable" sensors, holographic sound, and so on.)

I think you're also going to get colonies of non-tech people. (The Amish are among the best farmers in the world and have large families. They are the meek who will inherit the world, eh?) There may arise small towns and enclaves that are retro-tech as a way of life.

Very true. I should have thought of that.
In my experience, the relative queue _is_ helping with that since you can be explicit. If SEMIEB is really more important than SIEB, it's fair to switch—but it should be done as a relative comparison / override. I mostly saw people pushing SEMIEB without being aware what they are pushing down.

Although I would agree that if you have to reshift on hourly basis, this sounds more like oncall than normal dev work :)

Agreed on "on the top" not always being viable / feeling like it, but it helps when you go top-to-bottom consciously as opposed to randomly.
> The agents protect federal buildings, government officials, foreign dignitaries and facilities, and they perform other law enforcement tasks.

Probably not the ones "belonging to Bureau of Prisons’ riot police units from Texas". Read the article more closely.

> On the darker side, the roughly 20,000 federal prison guards known formally as the Bureau of Prisons—whose riot units apparently make up a sizable chunk of the officers imported to D.C. and who represent the single largest component of federal officers in the Justice Department—are concerning to see on the streets in part because they’re largely untrained in civilian law enforcement; they normally operate in a controlled environment behind bars with sharply limited civil liberties and use-of-force policies that would never fly in a civilian environment.

(A significant part of the issue is the "unmarked" part, too. The folks guarding buildings in DC have indications of which agency they're with. Going unmarked makes it difficult to even tell if you're a legit Federal agent, or someone posing as one. It also generates substantial difficulty in reporting misconduct; who do you complain to?)
This article uniquely gives a deep historical perspective on the story.

> What is surprising is that those two agencies now facing down Black Lives Matter and crowds protesting systemic racism historically have been enlisted by the federal government to protect blacks against white protestors. Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, for instance, deputized officers from the Border Patrol and the Bureau of Prisons to work as U.S. marshals and secure the University of Mississippi in 1962 to protect James Meredith as he enrolled at the school after desegregation. Similarly, the Border Patrol once watched over the Freedom Riders in Alabama and Mississippi in the 1960s.
So um, how would you work with files that came from a foreign file system? Would the kernel just crash when it sees them? Would they be effectively untouchable, like filenames with a '/' encoded in them?
that the password passes through any filter check other than refusal for being insufficient in strength should be a red flag to anyone. that any site would flag passwords for review should be the last flag you ever need to know to not trust the site.

It's a good idea to start early with IaC but one of the marks of a good engineer is knowing what tooling to use for each circumstance.

Your app might be a perfect fit for Terraform or it might not, I couldn't possibly comment. Given the info you've provided it seems excessive but it's hard to say for sure
Indeed. And not only common language, but ease of doing business with companies across the continent in general. Here in Europe, due to legal/language/cultural differences, and due to laziness, the default mode of operation for small companies in services is to avoid or neglect doing business with strangers from other parts of Europe. It is safe and comfortable, but does not create big multinational juggernauts.

From what I understand, this will differ greatly depending on your location / the local culture & norms. In some cultures, dissenting against authority, even local management authority, could be a major faux pas. In others its to be expected, so your mileage may vary.

Overall though it sounds like your team(s) and org aren't offering a psychologically safe environment. I would suggest investigating the concept of psychological safety in teams and the workplace, how to implement it and from there make a plan of how to introduce and influence the adoption of the concept in the teams you have influence on.

I have stopped having my phone connected to the cell network, but not for the same reasons as you. I almost always have it in airplane mode except for the periods of time when I know someone will need to call me. My motivation was to not help build the authoritarian state which is currently being constructed in the U.S. - your location is tracked and sold in live time by private companies to whoever wants it, and government agencies regularly track phones (location & communication) at a huge scale with no oversight, clearly demonstrated once again during recent events.

I still keep it connected to home WiFi and keep Bluetooth on but without beacon scanning, and I do use it - so maybe not the most helpful response for you.

So far the only issues are that I don't get the occasional text messages that friends send. This can be mitigated by using applications like Telegram, Signal, etc., but not everyone is on those. If you had an Apple Phone then iMessage would also hugely help.

I would like to cancel my phone service completely but am not sure whether it's feasible to take that step, since many things 'require' you to have a phone number. For example creating accounts at many online services. It's also often required for government forms but in that case a human might actually be able to help you. Same thing for job applications, but in that case they might just not bother with you if you bring up this weird thing with them. As a final year college student that final one is the most worrying to me.
I guess more simply put, as a millennial I don’t really want to pay for something I’ve received for free for the majority of my life and as mentioned in the article, the value to satisfy my curiosity just isn’t there.

They are very, very far from being in a desperate situation, and they have not said that they are looking to get a foot in the door.
They also aren't translations, a lot of the time, in the sense that they express the same meaning as the original text. Often they're simply replacements that are compatible with the action on the screen.

First 25 years of my life. It was glorious.

I would start by making a list of what you think are critical uses of tech, and work on trimming that list down until all that's left is almost impossible to do analog. You'll probably need to buy stamps and a good map, and learn to memorize phone numbers. Film cameras are cheap but getting processing and printing can be an expensive hassle.

I'm still wondering if search engines have replaced encyclopedias and libraries to the point that knowledge is lost or inaccessible without the Internet. I hope not, I don't believe "online is forever", too many sites and records just fade away when a book can last hundreds of years (or burn up in minutes, true).
I load a few packages in my startup. `--startup=no` makes the difference between about 0.12s and 0.5s on the 1+1 example for me.

This doesn't really bother me, but maybe I should try PackageCompiler or adding `using OhMyREPL, Revise, Cthulhu, BenchmarkTools` to a userimg.jl for when I build from source.
I suppose it's also possible they are checking the submitted passwords against a blacklist before storing.

The crux of the argument is:

1. Respiratory viruses typically evolve to become attenuated after jumping between species, and this new one will move to the "sweet spot" where all other human coronaviruses proliferate, if it becomes endemic.

2. 40-60% of people may have some level of pre-existing immunity due to previous exposure to other cold coronaviruses. This finding is coming up again and again in microbiology preprints, and it fits most observations.

Thank you, it feels like heresy whenever I say that... like it's one of those grim realities you're not allowed to point out. I'm all for automated testing in a sane manner, but TDD is so rigid and over-engineered.

I know many people that did this. Not all of them are making $500k a year, but here is some more examples:

- Multiple Rails contributors, one that turned core. Those folks are making well north of $200k a year.

- Ember contributors or contributors to projects around ember-data or similar. Multiple people making north of $200k a year.

- A guy that dove into contributing to Postgres. He wouldn't even share how much his offer was because it was so insane.

The point is that if you actually put in the work to projects and you network and learn from seasoned developers it's going to be far, far better for your career than grinding out little Fiver or Upwork contracts.

Put another way: Your pay is related to your skills, your professionalism, and your network. Working on the right OS project exposes you to people that are really good at software. Sure you can do the same working for money at the right company, but this guy isn't in that position. So, in my opinion, his best bet is to skill up and network and contribute. Even if he's applying to remote work positions absent a network, a string of commits to Numpy or Rust is going to look a hell of a lot better than "freelancer that did rinky dink work for marketing guys" or "I built a todo list app to show off my skills" and I don't really see why this is so controversial. I'd like to see a counterpoint, honestly. Someone here that worked on a real OS project for a prolonged period of time that has trouble finding work at a reasonable salary.
That argument from consequences is common against remote working but isn't an actual arguement against the utility.

If there is no benefit for paying a premium why not go with the commodity? Why go with an outmoded restriction to only hire blacksmiths in bounds of the south side of the original city limits?

Getting Locked-In and Locked-Out with Snowflake
I remember being very bored a lot in the 90s. Waiting around in the laundromat, sitting in waiting rooms, riding the bus, doing house and yard work. Books and walkmans and gameboys existed, of course, but they were slightly too big to always carry them around in your pocket.

I was a very early listener of audiobooks on digital media players, which was a godsend for alleviating that kind of boredom.
Don't ask for $1.5k/mo. No one will think of you as valuable if that's what you ask for. People who do pay you that much will treat you like shit and are not the kind of people you want to work with.

The problem is you're referring to yourself as a newbie. I don't know where you're from, but generally in America that would be seen as lack of confidence. Don't be humble. You can learn on the job. Working from home you can easily work 12 hour days if things take you longer than an experinced developer.

Look for companies you'd like to work with. If you're fine with startups which can be generally more approchable I'd look on AngelList. Email the founder or CTO. Talk to them about their problems. Try to be genuinely helpful and understanding. If they have job openings talk about how you can help them. Put everything you did on your CV. Upload your projects on GitHub.

You can absolutely do this, but first you need to change your mindset.
Coronavirus: Job-hunting advice for graduates, from the Class of 2008
You might want to find one advance, but you just have to not talk to the police UNTIL you find one when you need one. You in fact have the constitutional right to this.

Even a last minute lawyer who may not turn out to be ideal is better than no lawyer. A public defender may also be an option in some cases.

When you say the 'magic' legal words "I want a lawyer", they should not talk to you anymore until you have one. In most cases, you are or will be at home with plenty of time to find a lawyer. In some cases you may find yourself detained/arrested ("Am I being detained? Am I free to go?" are other 'magic' words). They may try to tell you that if you would only talk to them, they would let you go -- they are VERY LIKELY lying.

Do not trust that you can tell or sense if they are lying or not. They are experts at tricking you, they are trained and have lots of practice in it. They are legally allowed to lie. (In my personal experience, they did lie about exactly this -- they said "if you just talk to us, you can be on your way", I talked to them, I got arrested anyway.).

Getting arrested sucks; talking to the police without a lawyer can make it much much worse.

tldr; no, you don't need a lawyer in advance, you can ALWAYS say "I would like to remain silent, I would like a lawyer", and you always have this right, and they can not talk to you (or use anything from talking to you) without a lawyer once you've said this.
