The US doesn't 'annex', we 'liberate' :)

I'd say that any location in a strategic mountain pass that was invaded by a great power who has interest in that mountain pass.. ok, there are technicalities about whether they're annexed or not. But they're clearly on a short leash.

An 'anti-moscow' candidate could be tolerated -- one who let foreign troops in would absolutely not be. I'm not passing any moral judgment, just calling the dynamics as I see them.

> Emacs was invented for a world where Text was everything.

Given that you're still on a computer, what do you think isn't representable as text in one way or other? You can drag and drop images from a browser into Emacs[1], and it will download the image to a sensible (and configurable) location, add a link to the file and display it inline.

> The other problem is speed of typing is irrelevant

Yes, but having an interface which is reasonable and configurable is important for managing cognitive load, and Emacs excels here.

China is a special case because they are among the very few number of countries in the world where the government openly controls the media and the private companies.

A U.S. company like Twitter even bans the U.S. president's posts on their platform, and so does Facebook. Something like that is impossible in China as whoever does that will instantly get shut down. Think about the implication of this. This means you have to assume that any Chinese tech company will have to comply when the government tells them to spread some propaganda through their media.

This is what has been called in a science fiction as "information warfare", and it can be even more catastrophic than a real war, but I don't think most people realize this because they've never seen one before. What's even scarier is that even as this is happening, nobody knows this is happening, which is worse than a war because, unlike a physical war where everything is visible, one country can "attack" another country without anyone else realizing, causing a huge damage to their economy.
I'm kinda worried about China. A lot of thinks I'm hearing from it in the recent years sounds a lot like the the thinks I have heard about early hitler Germany during history school class and other sources (I'm German).

It's not even that much about the situation about Uighurs but more about aspects like:

- The propaganda they use.

- The way they don't care about human live and dignity.

- The way they slowly bit by bit make military (and non military) advances. (Germany bit by bit broke many restrictions imposed on it and the world didn't act because they had other problems, and non of the steps by itself where "to big". Take a look at recent Chinese military and "cyber" actions).

- And very important the sometimes subtle but always present nationalist, fascism and generally reasoning that violence (sometimes even genocide) is ok if it's for the "right" reason you find in close to all Chinese wuxia novels (~= read fantasy youth novels) (from my experience), movies (from my dads experience) and probably other entertainment material.

The last point plus propaganda can easily create a mindset over some generations which is open for pointless war and war crimes, including genocide, if its for revenge and defeats the enemy for good. The problem is that such a thing can easily lead to a vicious cycle of radicalization. And tbh. I wouldn't be surprised if many people making decisions about the Uighurs would also be fine with genocide, it's just not necessary as they can make their culture disappeare without it which is a much more politically efficient method.

I really hope I'm completely wrong about this.

I can’t support this idea. These thoughts and people exist. Silencing them or pretending they don’t exist is not something I subscribe to.

I would rather see it, be educated that it exists, and choose to think the way I want to.

Thought policing is a slippery slope.
This article specifically misses one point. China already has policies wrt. the amount of children (now 2, in the past one) and sterilization of woman had been a common thing in especially rural china since years. Through some minorities where excluded from this rules. But this means that this is indeed in line with chines law independent of any minorities. Through it's most likely a discriminatory selective application of the law. Enforcing it much stricter against Uighurs than anyone else.

Copied from my other post. I don't want to intermix two different aspects of discussion.
The problem with VISA-MasterCard duopoly is that in many markets the intermediaries (banks plus VISA/MC) skim off 2.5% off of the transaction between the mercant and the customer.

Amex takes much more (~4%?), so the problem is even worse there. Of course, they can and do bribe the customer with part of that fee so that it seems attractive, but from the wider perspective it's a huge overhead for no good reason, and if every transaction was like this (i.e. if Visa-MC was replaced by Amex) then that would be a big drain on the economy.
1) The president was threatening physical harm to people who were destroying non-living objects. Violence and destruction are not the same thing.

2) An exceedingly large proportion of those statues were erected during exceedingly specific historical political climates, which generally feature the following:

>Having been well after the events or the deaths of the figures commemorated
>During periods of economic decline or uncertainty
>Following periods agitation for civil rights, particularly by black Americans, and the subsequent spasm of anti-black violence or political jostling

In other words, those monuments tend to represent oblique commemoration of racist violence, and seem to threaten future violence by their presence. Taking them down is not instigation, it's a response.

I mean, even without this context, how can one argue that the dismantling of an extant object is instigation? Its original erection would be the first act, courting a response of either general respect (it stays up) or general disdain/shame (it's taken down) over the course of its existence.
I think the mental model is consistent, but the explanations and examples evolve.

Obviously like all models, these approximate reality.
> Would something decentralized help?

The most important thing to realise is: This is ONLY happening because the internet is now centralised.

Put aside Trump. Put aside politics. Put away US culture wars, and all other mass politics. It does not matter who is banned or why. Understand that what is happening now is the INEVITABLE result of an internet concentrated in fewer and fewer hands.

We have less websites. More natural tech monopolies. More points of failure: host, DNS, DDos protection, CAs. As any or all of these become centralised, website and communities are placed under the inevitable threat of censorship. Yesterday it was about copyright, today it is about politics, some day it will probably be about creed or race. When you give unaccountable power to the few, they will use it as they see fit.

This couldn't happen in a decentralised web, with more sites, players, hosts, more places for communities and discussion, more places to go if the site-owner turns sour.

We had a web 20 years ago where everyone from a Nazi to a transvestite from transsexual Transylvania could have their own place on the web which no-one else could take from them. We have lost that. Now several people can take your place on the web away. A small number of centralised gatekeepers control what is allowed to stay online.
And, you would be correct, in a sense. Wealthier consumers benefit disproportionately from CC rewards compared to less wealthy consumers:

No. Keeping out LGBT related keywords was shown to increase their performance.
And you people don’t seem to understand that UX doesn’t need be the same. Websites can make the prompts default to no, even hiding them by default behind an icon.

There’s no reason you can’t make the UX cater to the use case such that it’s clear and secure by default.

It’s just tiring dealing with people who channel their hatred for JavaScript essentially into nerfing the only truly open platform we have, one with far better primitives than the native ones and with a massive potential that is only held back by the feet dragging of every major company (Google and Apple both).

Then you go to HN where you’d expect we could agree that a web that complemented apps if done well should exist, and instead we have nerds gaslighting other nerds using every fake reason they can find (my dad wouldn’t understand the notification, or, good because I don’t want powerful sites) when in reality they just lack any imagination that would easily allow them to have both worlds, thus keeping those who do have some imagination stuck in this special hell of having to re-make the same points over and over.
In 20 years, no-one will remember VScode, but Emacs will still be around.
Nation states have military, intelligence, diplomacy and police corps. They reserve the power to stop, detain, arrest, jail, try, sentence, imprison, and kill. That’s why how we go about those things is a Big Deal, and why we have so many rules about who can go about it, how, under what circumstances, what the laws are that they’re enforcing, what the processes and procedures are for enforcement and how guilt is determined.

Corporations as a rule, and there have been exceptions, but as a rule have none of those powers. Theoretically the worst crimes they’re going to commit are fraudulent in nature and crimes of negligence. They’re not just a separate org chart ultimately serving as a private arm of the State with its own private rules that it self-enforces; they’re different beasts entirely.

The problem with PRC-based corporations is that they muddy the waters entirely between what is private and public. As far as the PRC is concerned, all private life is subject to the State and should serve the interests of the State. Google and Facebook and your favorite café or tea house can and do have interests that lie entirely outside of the State and are free to pursue them. That is the difference between a free society and an authoritarian State.
That's a good point, but I'd be surprised if Apple doesn't have (or is building) a mechanism to allow certain well-known domains to be trusted sender, in the circumstances you note. Like, have "enter your custom domain", but also "checkboxes for fedex.com, etc".
Senior dev? or Senior VP?
Delphi, when providing support to the editor, compiles the whole file containing the cursor but completely skips all codegen and in fact all function bodies (i.e. type checking, expression analysis etc.) that don't contain the cursor. The cursor is represented as a fake token, and the parser longjmps out with context when it's discovered; it resets the lexer context if it finds the cursor in the body of a function it's trying to skip.

It doesn't need to compile dependencies because the public parts of units are a serialized symbol table with full definitions, rather than simple object files.
The primary difference between 2020 and 1974 is that smartphones and social media greatly increase the number of people who can (and do) serve as the tabloid reporter from the article.
This is the kind of work an operator is supposed to manage, just like if one were dealing with standard HA deployments of any stateful service that doesn’t ship with built-in orchestration (like PostgreSQL).
It is just mindboggling to me that significant parts of the electorate were and are unable to assign policy positions to the correct party. I hope at least those voters' representatives accurately reflected their wishes irrespective of party labels.

On the one hand, I am lucky enough to have received a great education so these things are clear to me, and not everyone is that lucky. On the other hand, world events are sometimes hinging on voters who don't know what they're voting for.
> Most people simply haven't learned the hygiene yet.

There's an entire class of problems you cannot solve through 'hygiene.' Equifax, for example, collected data on you without your consent, and got in trouble for unintentionally giving it away when they're supposed to be getting money in exchange.
Not even remotely true. The West has myriad choices to choose from in comparison. I don't think you understand how in sync the media is there. They'll literally run identical stories at the same time on every major network, and publish the same set of stories in their papers day after day.
Well-formed code is not sufficient. For example, C11 says this about floating point:

> The accuracy of the floating-point operations (+, -, <star>, /) and of the library functions in <math.h> and <complex.h> that return floating-point results is implementation-defined, as is the accuracy of the conversion between floating-point internal representations and string representations performed by the library functions in <stdio.h>, <stdlib.h>, and <wchar.h>. The implementation may state that the accuracy is unknown.

There was an article recently talking about the bizarre rounding that happens when the x86 FPU registers get involved. You get one rounding for operations occurring in the register (which is 80-bits wide) and another if you get kicked out of the register and into RAM (which is only 64-bits wide, for doubles).
> Doesn't it somewhat defeat the purpose of using a password manager if you use one account to sign into multiple sites?

Yes. Password managers exist to solve the problem of credential reuse; third-party login exists to implement credential reuse. They are fundamentally opposed.

Many people, including me, use Pandoc. The markup is simpler (extended Markdown), but, more importantly, you can compile it to a variety of other markups, so it lets you repurpose your documents. And if you need more detailed control than Pandoc allows, you can embed raw LaTeX (or html). You can also extend Pandoc by writing your own “filters,”¹ which means you can sort of create your own markup language. Is something like that what you had in mind?

I think this describes Gawker more than the current howling mob. There is someone to blame at the end of the day, and there is a clear malevolence in motives.

What kind of conspiracy theory?

If it’s the “people” kind then what you have to realize is actual conspiracies happen all the time - there are many interwoven plots, ulterior motives, and hidden agendas going on all around you.

People are generally good at noticing that something doesn’t add up - much worse at working out what might have actually happened.

They have also been lied to and mislead by our institutions often enough that they are unlikely to trust your sources or corrections.

The only long term solution I can think of is to clean up our institutions - but that won’t happen overnight.

If it’s the “flat earth” kind - overall these people are higher than average intelligence and fairly well versed in the topics they are discussing - and so unless you yourself understand the subject matter they will run circles around you.

This second group are actually really interesting to talk to and ask interesting questions - for example why do pilots fly without adjusting for the curvature of the earth? Why do many long distance snipers not adjust for the curvature of the earth? Etc etc.

I’m sure there are great scientific explanations - and I’m also sure that many in the flat earth crowd would listen.
Didn't somebody test a couple years ago with a set of wheels/tires that more closely resembled passenger car sidewall heights? You know, like 80-100mm sidewall heights instead of whatever they run currently? It seems nothing came of that; can you shed any light?
For a long time, I've had the superstition that if I don't have to fix a couple of syntax errors (or other triviality) initially, it's a bad omen and there's probably some much more significant logic error lurking. Any time something compiles/runs for the first time without adjustment, I get nervous.

As someone who has never used visa or mastercard and only discover for credit cards (I do have a visa debit card) I second this sentiment. There is no duopoly from my vantage point.
No one in the entire world with half a brain trusts the US, or any state for that matter. Too much backstabbing. Ask the Kurds.
I had poor credit at a point in time. I "bought" a credit card to build my credit by putting a deposit. After 1 year of on-time payments I was able to graduate to a credit card with cash back. The system didn't feel punitive to me, and honestly, I had poor credit in the first place because I was irresponsible while in college.

History.

Firebug was the best and nearly only tool out there for a while.

Then Google took a page from Apple’s early OS X book: bundle great developer tools so developers want to write apps on your platform and not port them to others.

Meanwhile Firebug was suffering and non-performant due to not having access to the browser core. Chrome’s developer tools soon outstripped it.

Mozilla decided to rebuild Firebug’s features internally where they’d have the right permissions to perform well and debug properly and do all the fancy things Chrome’s did.

Developers loathed Internet Explorer but had to develop for it anyway, and I assume Microsoft added tools to it to keep their browser from being blackballed entirely.

Safari? Who knows.
I was just the right age to enjoy the 90s to full effect. So much happened (to me) musically and culturally in that decade, that it has to be the best.

Usenet was reading was free via the local university unsecured dial-in (not ppp just a terminal that would telnet into any computer you knew of) , but without an email address you couldn't do much so I didn't spend much time there.

Then the web hit and you could find useful things on the internet. It was all downhill from there for Usenet.

Are you aware of the House of Lords?

Did you know that the European Commission is elected by our representatives in the EU parliament?

Did you know that the speaker of the house in the UK will not have his seat contested? In fact he won’t serve his constituency at all and they will be left without an acting MP of any kind.

How democratic is that? Taxation without representation- from the House of Commons no less.

You can’t sit there with a straight face and tell me our representative democracy with an unelected (and sometimes hereditary) upper house of peers and enacted through monarchy is /more/ democratic than what is considered the most modern and fair functioning government the world has ever seen.

Just because you don’t bother to turn up to vote doesn’t mean it’s not democratic.
