No. Submitting a flawed paper in good faith to a journal isn't unethical; journals exist to evaluate papers. Deliberately submitting bad papers --- in fact, going out of your way to shade what's bad about your papers to try to get them further into the process --- is a waste of volunteer time. Reviewers have offered to evaluate good faith papers; they have not offered to have their time spent as guinea pigs. Hence IRBs, to tell you not to do stuff like this.

When you value intimate encounters with people you care about, there is an upper limit, even if you have multiple women waiting to date you.

> I don’t want to have a dedicated firewall.

If you want to be assured of protection, you may need to rethink this requirement.

Network 'switches' provide some isolation, but unless you buy data-center level networking equipment, and configure them properly, there is no way to guarantee isolation (i.e., the isolation can be escaped when using a basic consumer grade switch).

My setup to avoid the same issue:

fios <---> Linux router (a PC running Linux) with four ethernet cards installed

first ethernet card connects to fios dmarc box

second ethernet card connects to my internal wired network

third ethernet card connects to an isolated wifi network

fourth ethernet card connects to cisco hardware VPN box (work provided), work laptop connects to this hardware VPN box

Linux firewall rules setup so that the work laptop and cicso VPN box connected to the fourth ethernet card has no access to any data on second or third ethernet cards and no knowledge even of the existence of those additional ethernet cards.

Work laptop does not run over wifi, ever.

This layout has the work laptop on a fully isolated, wired, network, where I have full control over what it can see (via those Linux firewall rules).
Personally, I rarely think about updating my software unless there's a new feature I need or a fix for a bug that's been ruining my life, so just visiting the website when to check for new versions is fine by me.

However, you could also include a facility to manually check for updates and either self-update or just show the changelog. Why manually? "I know you're about to do this thing real quick that needs to get done, but a new version is available! Would you like to twiddle your thumbs for 5 minutes while watching a progress bar?".

You either have to refuel mid-air or go suborbital or use a different fuel.

Sorry, I should have been more explicit. I understand that it follows the pattern of transitional packages and that this was a practical decision to not break people's existing setups.

But I don't necessarily agree with the decision because "install Chromium via apt" now doesn't make any sense. It really should be something like "Ubuntu doesn't package Chromium anymore, but a Canonical supported package is available in the Snap store." Because Chromium via snap isn't a drop-in replacement: it automatically updates, it's not versioned with the distro, the usual file paths you would expect to exist aren't there anymore.

I use "universal installer" because Canonical has made apt do something really unexpected. Canonically has effectively made apt a frontend for snaps. I wouldn't expect that if I tried to install a package what wasn't in Ubuntu's repos that it would try to find some PPA that has that package, automatically enable and trust it, and install it from there.
Yes, every HN graphics thread has a group of people that complain that Vulkan isn't used everywhere. Most of them have not written any Vulkan because many HN graphics threads complain about the amount of boilerplate required to get a triangle onscreen in higher level APIs like OpenGL.

Boeing would have preferred to have introduced a new narrow body aircraft, on their own schedule. But the new version of the 737 was announced before they got there, by American Airlines.

At that point it's either repudiate AA's announcement, harming relations with a customer worth at least 100 aircraft, or go build the thing. And if they build it, they're stuck with a bunch of the problems with the 737, like being unable to change how the controls work.

If they could sub out the control system from mechanical cables to fly by wire, they wouldn't have had any visible issues with the Max.

There are degrees to vendor lock-in, and it's not black and white as you portray it to be. Flatpak and apt exhibit minimal lock-in, because they are decentralized and fully open source. Snap, on the other hand, has a closed source server that is controlled solely by Canonical. Since the Snap Store is the only preinstalled app store on Ubuntu, this results in a greater degree of lock-in than Flatpak and apt.

The backlash from Linux Mint and other distributions was partly caused by Canonical using Snap for Chromium when the user intended to install it through apt. This sleight of hand is not as extreme as a 30% commission, but it's a step in the wrong direction. The FOSS community is able to reject moves toward vendor lock-in even if the closed source Snap server does not mandate a 30% commission.
It's worth noting that Ubuntu support and Snap support are orthogonal. The Flutter work here generates standard ELF binaries that can be distributed outside of Snap, and Canonical's contributions to create a high-quality desktop embedder for Linux are applicable across all distros.

Brooks Brothers Goes Bust with Business Clothes Losing Favor
I'll second this; I love mine, but have written off OCR and searchability completely.

I bought it to be an e-reader, but ended up taking a ton of notes in it. I have notebooks for projects, for recurring meetings, a single-page "task list" and a page-per-week notebook tracking what I plan to do, what I did, and what I learned, which I use to inform my part of weekly standup meetings.

I prefer to keep most notes ephemeral; if it matters, I should be transcribing it elsewhere (preferably to something typed; I have some shame about my handwriting quality). I do keep all past weeks of my standup notes, and I expect to draw on them heavily to inform performance reviews and promotions, but I can go through them in order, so even there searchability is not a big loss.

Low-impact-factor journals that accept papers with 1000 of ethnographic field studies aren't "broken" just because the data was fake, because it isn't the premise of peer review to reliably spot fake data.

You can make the argument that there are too many low-impact journals and schools shouldn't be allocating resources towards keeping them going; I don't think it's a super strong argument but it's at least coherent. But more importantly: it won't have anything to do with this hoax; if you're willing to fake data, you can get accepted in higher-impact journals outside the social sciences as well.
draw_down was downvoted for this, but I agree. If you're going to write an article on this, you _should_ know, or at least try to.

This would have been more educational if perhaps instead of the author guessing at what behavior should occur, they read the standards[1][2][3] and told us what should occur. There are even definitions in the specifications for how to lookup the nearest available weight.[1][4]

It seems like the author doesn't understand what liberties you have as an implementor. For instance:

> In the computed tab, Edge, Chrome and Firefox are all showing font-weight: bold to be computed to a font-weight of 700, whereas Safari's computed font-weight doesn't have a numerical value, it just remains computed as "bold." But this still doesn't explain much.

Well, OK, but the _author_ didn't explain much. This little tidbit isn't meaningful, it's just an observation without an explanation as to why. But a cursory read shows the specifications clearly state that bold is the same as 700.

> Wait.

> I add ,700 to the end of this string: Poppins:400,600. My heading re-renders and now matches Safari.

Well, yeah.

From Cascading Style Sheets Level 2 Revision 1 (CSS 2.1) Specification,
"15.6 Font boldness: the 'font-weight' property"

"If the desired weight is less than 400, weights below the desired weight are checked in descending order followed by weights above the desired weight in ascending order until a match is found.
If the desired weight is greater than 500, weights above desired weight are checked in ascending order followed by weights below the desired weight in descending order until a match is found.
If the desired weight is 400, 500 is checked first and then the rule for desired weights less than 400 is used.
If the desired weight is 500, 400 is checked first and then the rule for desired weights less than 400 is used."[1]

From CSS Fonts Module Level 4,
"5.2. Matching font styles"

"If the desired weight is inclusively between 400 and 500, weights greater than or equal to the target weight are checked in ascending order until 500 is hit and checked, followed by weights less than the target weight in descending order, followed by weights greater than 500, until a match is found.

If the desired weight is less than 400, weights less than or equal to the desired weight are checked in descending order followed by weights above the desired weight in ascending order until a match is found.

If the desired weight is greater than 500, weights greater than or equal to the desired weight are checked in ascending order followed by weights below the desired weight in descending order until a match is found."[4]

> So what do I do to render headings consistently across browsers and platforms?

Read the specifications. If you're arguing that Core Text doesn't draw like FreeType or Direct2D/DirectWrite, well, sure, but the specifications don't force you to output particular bitmaps.

Yes, if you remove "use font smoothing" the font weight gets lighter and closer to other OSes rendering. Big Sur gets rid of this option, but I don't know if the underlying option is still on or not.

So a foreign student came here for his doctorate, graduated, and went on to educate Americans. Win win.

Linux Mint maintains a Debian derivative (https://linuxmint.com/download_lmde.php) so that they can continue operating should something happen to make the Ubuntu derivative unfeasible.

Also, for what it's worth, I remain entirely unconvinced by your argument that this is fine from a users point of view. If they want to stop the push back, they need to ensure that they are not the only one with the ability to host a Snap store similar to how Flatpak does it. You can claim that this is irrelevant as it won't be used, and I suspect that you're right about that, but they will not be trusted until this happens.
There's no such thing as platform independent UI, at least on that break. You can do a "mobile first" UI that sucks on desktop or a "desktop first" UI that sucks on mobile, or you can just make the decision to only support one first - nail it - then support the other, with a completely different UI.

Sharing code is the easy part. The input and output mechanisms and paradigms are completely different, and designs that work great in one context are difficult or impossible to use in another (eg, key bindings or gestures), and hard problems exist in one area that don't in another (mostly on desktop, windows are terrible).

I think the larger point the author was trying to make was don't give lip service to specifically going out of your way to try and help Black founders if you're still going to use the exact same credentialing signals you always do: track record where someone has worked, name brand of their school, etc.

One might argue that without the special consideration these VC's rushed to say they would give, how would someone like the author ever have an established track record of starting/selling their businesses in the first place?

I'm frankly still expecting VC's to make decisions on what they think is going to be most profitable for them, full-stop. But plenty of other firms like large consulting firms, do set aside people and resources to work with non-profits for example. Why couldn't VC's do the same to try and level the playing field and eliminate some of these inherent advantages the well connected/well credentialed have? A "no" is potentially fine, but how you deliver that "no" can make all the difference.

Notre Dame, IBM launch Tech Ethics Lab to tackle ethical implications of tech
My experience with Flutter was that making the UI itself was pretty great. But making the rest of the app sucked. FFI support is bad. Platform channels are miserable. Doing it all in Dart is awful because there's no cheap concurrency - it's the same multi-heap with expensive "IPC" shittiness that you get with webworkers, but way less justified since you're nearly always on platforms with native threads. It's a huge pain to try and migrate piecemeal too, so if you have an existing app/codebase you're looking at a re-write.

UI performance was fine (not any better than native though), but RAM usage was pretty bad, a lot higher than native.
