'Miles Morales' Trailer Pulled Down After Copyright Claim from French Publisher
So looking around more, this is interesting - historically US lawyers did use legal size, but in 1983 the Supreme Court instituted a rule to move all federal paperwork to letter size, and most states followed shortly thereafter if they hadn't already transitioned.

Paradigm shifts don't make physical phenomena possible. At best, they take an observed natural phenomena, isolate and amplify it. AFAIK nothing has been observed moving faster than light and I don't believe there is anything even predicted to. Of course, the details of black hole physics, and early cosmological physics, are very strange and full of contradictions. To relate back to the original topic, to last for a very long time, I would imagine a civilization would require some sort of central urge even beyond simple survival, and argue that studying black holes would be one of the best, and perhaps universal motivators. (The goal of survival in-and-of-itself at the civilizational level is ironically quite nihilistic!)
It doesn't fix anything directly, but it's an easy, effective way to show support for people who have been disenfranchised.

And it's the sum total that counts, so every little thing makes a difference. One project making changes doesn't have much of an impact, but if every project on GitHub did the same that would be a very clear message the tech industry isn't satisfied with the status quo.

Sometimes all it takes to stop a bully is for one person to speak up because then others that might have been keeping silent will feel more comfortable speaking up as well.
For some reasons that I don’t understand I think that spoken Turkish sometimes reminds me of Russian.. Not that I’m fluent in any of them but I usually can recognise Russian quite well and understand some words.
Do you not find it concerning that OpenSSL indirectly promotes a Arizona street gang[0]?

0 - https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=south%20side...

"Mind you, they are still a very dangerous organized street gang with crimes ranging from Assault, Armed Robbery, & Murder. Warning: Avoid S Chandler Blvd, & anywhere from west of Cooper Rd & 8th Avenue, between S Mesa Dr at night."

This is INSANE. They have killed people. OpenSSL has blood on their hands.
Man, I 100% agree. This PC crap is the worst thing to happen to humanity in the last 500 years.
I'm self-taught too, and strictly interested in research-focused CS masters or PhD programs (as opposed to industry-focused cash-cows). I think I'm mostly interested in studying PL or program synthesis, but I'm also open to other ideas. How did you make that jump from self-taught to qualified for a PhD program?
You had an interesting discussion going until the second half.
So is LibreSSL like a "freed slave" or a trolling oxymoron, a "free slave"?

Better ban it just to be safe.
The one exception is parking garages, which often have very low roofs, where most trucks or full-size vans won't fit. But that's a totally different situation.
White/black for good/evil predate American slavery by a few millennia. They aren't racial terms, they relate to light and darkness (as in EM radiation).
You can't possibly be trying to argue that the OP actually does find the term "SSL" as abhorrent as some of the terms being considered, such as "master/slave", are you? That the OP legitimately feels this way and is not just pulling something out of their behind for the sake of arguing disingenuously?
Really cover to cover? Don't think that's necessary unless you have deep interest in the subject. There are folks who can barely walk and chew gum at the same time, working at FAANGs.
I get keeping 'parent/child', but why is it so ridiculous to change 'blacklist'? It seems reasonable to not want to associate 'black' with 'bad/evil'.

Thinking about how we use the term 'blacklist' doesn't seem like much of a sacrifice on our part.

If you disagree, I would love to hear your logic.
Framer doesn't spit out React code once you're done. Code used in prototyping is hugely different and unusable in production. And Framer makers know this and openly talk about this, they're not trying to be a code generator.
The 11'8" bridge has your second option: a heavy steel beam mounted a couple yards ahead of the bridge, braced to absorb the impact required to cut the trucks down to size.

It's more obvious in footage from the camera located on the left side of the bridge.
Virtue signalling, plain and simple. Makes you look good to your peers without doing anything of substance.

I don't get why there isn't a sustained campaign to reach out for commitments from elected representative while they are largely working from home and more immune from the political pressures that keep them in lockstep maintaining the status quo. Now is the time to push for change from those who hold the power of the purse and frame laws.
I get what you’re doing, but the fact that you’re “doing” something is a problem.

Simply put: don’t be needlessly ridiculous.

CSS ELI5: Float: Left;
Suppose I have an inline SVG that I want to take up the entire width and height of the viewport. I also want to leave overflow visible for the container of my SVG-- this is so that scrollbars will appear when users of my webapp create SVG shapes that extend past the boundaries of the viewport.

So I set the body's margin to 0, I set my SVG's width and height to the viewport width/height (plus setting viewBox to "0 0 $width $height").

If I'm in quirksmode I'm done.

If I'm not in quirksmode, I get unexpected scrollbars unless I set the SVG's style to "float: left;".

So what is "float: left;" doing to save the day? And why is old quirks web the web of least surprise in this case while HTML5 requires me to do CSS incantations to fit an element precisely inside a cavity?

Edit: clarification
> I don't think this has any racist connotations

I have a really hard time making sense of this sentiment. You're stipulating that the words have truly no ill intent whatsoever, and yet you're happy that they're being banned?

And beyond that, does this sort of thing really belong in the top ten thousand concerns of anyone, when it comes to making the world a better place?
By "supported" I mean "available in the Windows Store." I believe that those are submitted by the distro vendors themselves.

And from a lock-in perspective, the userland is all that matters, yeah? If an app runs on Ubuntu, whether it's WSL 2 or in Docker or in a a VM or on bare metal. If it's all the same, then it's not a Microsoft Linux, it's just Ubuntu. Or whatever Linux you want.
If you can’t see why the term “slave” might cause issues I don’t know what to tell you.
I long for the days when context was king and our institutions weren't ruled by the emotionally fragile lunatics.

In theory, sure.. but we're not talking about "in theory" here.. Everyone on here tonight is hiding behind really dumb hyperbolic "what if"s, and it's pretty disappointing to see the tone deafness of it all.

The word "slave" has a very real and very painful real-world history and baggage for a lot of people, and we should no longer be using it in our technical language.

And this is not about condemning past actions but about taking the opportunity to do better in the future. Is our profession not about continuous learning and improvement? Why should that improvement only be technical in nature?

No one is asking for carte blanche to blindly agree to any and all future changes without any thought or discussion.

But this one should be pretty obvious to anyone who stops for a minute to think about it.

Also saying that "most people don't see it as a problem" is part of the problem. That can't be the only metric. This is exactly the mentality that leads to disrespect and disenfranchisement of underrepresented parts of our community.
Not just tutoring minority kids. Advocating for efforts against police brutality. Advocating for prison reform, drug decriminalization, ending cash bail, free school meals (breakfast and lunch) for all children K-12 as well as improvements to educational infrastructure in disadvantaged communities. Structural changes, pulling strings that control the system.

Alas, these are not commits you can make and then move on. These must become your hobbies if you intend to see meaningful change in our lifetimes. Some of these listed above are my hobbies, and I hope they become yours if these causes matter to you.
Is it a common understanding SSL means South Side Locos? No, absolutely not.

Is it a common understanding master/slave means, well, enslavement? Yes, absolutely.

Here is one of my favorite sections from 1984. Maybe there is some relevance to draw from it; maybe not.

'You haven't a real appreciation of Newspeak, Winston,' he said almost
sadly. 'Even when you write it you're still thinking in Oldspeak. I've read
some of those pieces that you write in "The Times" occasionally. They're
good enough, but they're translations. In your heart you'd prefer to stick
to Oldspeak, with all its vagueness and its useless shades of meaning.
You don't grasp the beauty of the destruction of words. Do you know that
Newspeak is the only language in the world whose vocabulary gets smaller
every year?'

Winston did know that, of course. He smiled, sympathetically he hoped, not
trusting himself to speak. Syme bit off another fragment of the
dark-coloured bread, chewed it briefly, and went on:

'Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of
thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible,
because there will be no words in which to express it. Every concept that
can ever be needed, will be expressed by exactly one word, with its meaning
rigidly defined and all its subsidiary meanings rubbed out and forgotten.
Already, in the Eleventh Edition, we're not far from that point. But the
process will still be continuing long after you and I are dead. Every year
fewer and fewer words, and the range of consciousness always a little
smaller. Even now, of course, there's no reason or excuse for committing
thoughtcrime. It's merely a question of self-discipline, reality-control.
But in the end there won't be any need even for that. The Revolution will
be complete when the language is perfect. Newspeak is Ingsoc and Ingsoc
is Newspeak,' he added with a sort of mystical satisfaction. 'Has it ever
occurred to you, Winston, that by the year 2050, at the very latest, not a
single human being will be alive who could understand such a conversation
as we are having now?'
I think that can be ok. If a slow bureaucratic process is created, some metric for how fast the team can perform will take a hit. As the team looks at ways to keep cycle times high, they will automate it.

Or when the manual step itself fails, people realize that an automated test is better and the next post mortem action plan is to automate.

But, you can raise those concerns. They are valid and in many cases I think it's worth the discussion.
> In this case the vocabulary change is intentional, but even if one believes it misguided, it's hard to argue it's harmful.

Often it isn't harmful, but sometimes it can be, so that is why to be careful of it, I think.

Altering comments (and documentation) is probably not harmful (as long as it remains clear, or in some cases, becomes even more clearly meaning), but altering names of commands and other stuff (especially if it is an exposed API) is more problematic, I think. (Changing them to same words as other things to be confusing, or breaking URLs, or whatever, is also harmful, though.)

I think that it is best to change the vocabulary when the concepts are altered, and to leave it the same when the concepts remain unaltered, although I am not trying to stop you or anyone from writing what they want to write; if they don't like these words, change them, especially if the new words are a better description of it anyways.

(But I believe in freedom of speech: If someone else doesn't want to change their program or document, don't force them to do so. But I also dislike copyright: I believe that if you don't like their program or document or whatever, you should be allowed to make (and use, and distribute) a modified copy.)
A beginner might have trouble assimilating this information - too few examples, not enough entry level drilling on data types, operators, flow control and functions. For example they might forget to put quotes around a string or not know how to use two for loops, one inside the other, even if they know how to use one in isolation. It's hard to grok how to compose things even if the student saw how to use them in isolation. And for the teacher, it's hard to keep the lessons easy enough at that entry level.
Tell me why it offends you and we can discuss it.

If you're not being facetious, then I will edit it.
No, ultralights are single seat to protect members of the public:

"For example, the assumption can be made that a person who elects, without pilot qualifications, to operate an uncertificated vehicle alone is fully aware of the risks involved. This assumption does not hold true of a passenger selected randomly from the general public. Persons in the general public will likely assume that the operator has certificated pilot qualifications."

Also, not all airports allow ultralight operations.

Also, for insurance and legal reasons, no professional CFI is going to endorse you as a student pilot on an on-going basis.
If you do not stand with the people of Arizona who have been terrorized by the SSL(South Side Locos), how do I take seriously that you stand with the people who have been affected by slavery across time in history? Is this all for show then?
Or one better: build Dyson spheres around your sun, or ideally around several local suns. This would be a clear signal of a very mighty civilization indeed! But even this signal would propagate outward at a snails pace in comparison to the size of the galaxy, let alone the universe. At that point I think it's interesting to wonder what such long-lived and powerful civilizations would want to talk about, and indeed how the conversation would take place. The time-scales are unimaginable; it would require something like a slowed-down AI living in a physical substrate maintained by short-lived AIs and/or biologicals, somehow maintaining a stable (or at least meta-stable) social structure for millions of years. It would be an incredible achievement, but I would worry that the "human cost" would be immense -- I'm thinking of the very stable but stagnant (and totalitarian) Egyptian civilization. Were the pyramids worth the cost?
This is a complete non sequitur to what I said.

This is an important point. Pushing trivia like this uses up the attention and good will that people have to spend on the larger issues. If you want to change the world, lead with what actually matters.
The RNGs feelings aren’t at issue.
An interesting use of 'classList' is that it makes it easy to use css-classes to indicate the state of a dom-element. Is the element selected or not? Well does its classlist include the css-class 'selected'?
InVision doesn't have any design features. It's just a prototyping tool, you need to import designs from somewhere.

Figma is a bit like Sketch+InVision combined. With the InVision part actually better than InVision.

There is also InVision Studio, which was their attempt on full-fledged prototyping tool, but it's largely abandoned now, always suffered with huge reliability and perfomance issues and never became truly usable tool. It's a pity, it looked very promising.

I really don't see it. For example the term pet is perfectly fine when applied to a dog, but very questionable when applied to a human. Should we rename pets to something else?
So, like abortion?
It seems reasonable to not want to associate 'black' with 'bad/evil'.

Is it? The term "black goods" is often used to refer to things like TVs, stereo systems, and HTPCs, because of what colour they often are, and that's not bad/evil at all.

...and are we going to start complaining about "dark mode" too...?

It's not about the inanimate object that is being described, it about the human who is encountering the word.

I can certainly think of other very objectionable and hurtful words that people don't want to encounter in any context.. I am sure you can think of some words too.

Why is it so hard for you to understand that this particular word falls in that category for a large number of people.

Again, it has nothing to do with context, it has to do with THE WORD ITSELF.
This is only necessary because docker is steaming pile of hot garbage. It’s the leakiest of leaky abstractions, and a hoarder to boot.
Why does it matter if SSL is commonly understood to reference the South Side Locos? Clearly people have been affected negatively by them. If you aren't going to stand up for them, how do we believe you really stand for black people and others who have been enslaved?

Before modern times, slave was just a common word to define people who had been put under slavery. Back then, you would've scoffed at the idea of censoring away a perfectly acceptable word because "it's not commonly understood to be offensive". That's what I gather from your refusal to recognize SSL as an offensive term referencing the Arizona street gang.

I like being able to combine drawing+prototyping in one place, with an easy way of sharing. Syncing from Sketch to InVision is still not great and prototyping in InVision is actually very limited and not exactly a pleasure to use either.
Evading Detection with Excel 4.0 Macros and the BIFF8 XLS Format
That is a possible source of error, still there is the issue of network devices that implement ossified versions of internet standards. For example when they tried to use different kinds of compression in unencrypted HTTP it came out that a lot of middleboxes would simply "fix" the content-encoding header to be either gzip or deflate, regardless of that making it illegible.
Surely that’s more about to the fact that CPU speeds aren’t doubling every eighteen months anymore? It’s easy to stay relevant when you’re not ten times slower than current hardware after just five years. It’s not like computers are somehow designed to stay useful longer these days, they just do because the world has slowed down around them.
The problem isn't the words that seem to offend some people, it's that people associate themselves with words that they should not. I would love to live in a world where people stop saying "I'm black" or "I'm white". Your skin has a colour, but I bet it's not one of those. Perhaps a light brown? The point is, no one alive can say they don't share some heratage with one side or another. If you are so offended by some historical act of slavery in your ancestry, then perhaps you should also carry out some due diligence and check if there is any enslavement by the part of your ancestors also?
If things like this is a big deal, why are we ok with dressing up as pirates or murderers? I personally feel like the problem lies in our inability to accept some historical events as unchangeable as crap as they are, and focus instead at how wonderful our differences as a species is in the 21st century. We should be accepting humanity as the collidescope that it is rather than just "black" and "white". FFS!

I don't question if someone gets offended because that is their right, but we can't change everything which is offensive because some things someone will always hate, no matter what. But, there is another reason to object to the term SSL, as I will mention below:

I don't like this term "SSL". It is not SSL. It is TLS.

The author of OpenSSL (or whatever other program) can change the program if they want to do; I am not objecting to that. Whether or not it is a good idea to change it is a different question, of course.

(I also don't like the term "tonne". Not due to being offensive; I don't want to complain just because I find a word offensive. But, because I think "megagram" is better, instead.)
It can be both.

I don't know how else to put this but you really seem to lack empathy for your fellow human beings.

You are turning people's real pain into a pedantic discussion about language and context, and ignoring the real-world context of this specific scenario.

The tone deafness is astounding.
