Interesting. I see the examples don’t cite “technical analysis” of price action of stocks. Is that also an example of Ludic fallacy?
don't we have algorithms that can smart crop an image to preserve points of interest? Could that be used to keep text at the top or bottom of an image. Ugly as that may be.
Why is that not surprising? Maybe we are used to different types of technology companies though.
This seems like FUD. How are the laws itself “excess and absurd” compared to rest of the democratic world? It’s also strange to assert Japan has “strong privacy laws” when the exact opposite is happening in this very article we’re discussing.

> In Japan, the person who committed the (sexual) crime can reliably sue you for ruining their reputation and win

Unfortunately, this is not an uncommon thing outside of Japan [1]. And to be fair, you can’t just put a blanket ban on defamation lawsuits because it’s not wrong to sue for defamation if the allegation of sexual misconduct is in fact false. I don’t believe the majority of them to be the case, but ultimately, it’s for the courts to decide.

> Stating actual plain facts about a person that harms their image on any public platform will land you in trouble, unless it’s something that’s clearly in the public interest to know

Whoa. This the whole point of having defamation laws. Would you rather live in a world where every embarrassing details about your life can be published online?

Is it OK for someone to buy the house next door, and build a cafe? What about a night club, which has loud music and closes at 4am?

How about a rendering plant? Or installing a large propane storage facility?

Is there nothing you'd consider unsafe, unwanted, beside the house you just paid $500k for? Which is now worth $200k, and makes it horrid to live there?

These laws, like all laws, are necessary.

Where the problem sits, is when they go too far, or not far enough. There is a sweet spot for everything!
I have the same itch and keep scratching it almost daily. I can say scratching this itch over the last several years has absolutely been +EV overall. Maybe not in a “I made $XXXX in sales over the last month/year/whatever” kind of way but in that I’ve learned an incredible amount, have been able to use a lot of the things I’ve learned at my job and have definitely improved my overall market value as an engineer (validated with data I should say, not just an opinionated, arrogant rant).

That said, I would keep scratching that itch if you still have the motivation and drive to keep learning/building without seeing immediate material value like money right away.
You can do this on appengine too, it provides the client location in a header.

Any recommendations for simple centralized logging for small/hobbist/non-profit projects?

I'm basically looking for something self-hosted or cloud-based where I can easily POST some data from Python/PHP/JavaScript/Bash running on two or three servers and easily have a look at the logs streaming in.

Spinning up an entire Graylog seems overkill in order to log a couple of dozen lines per day.
MaxMind have two versions of their database, the free to use version called GeoLite and the paid version (whos name I'm not aware of).

I realise this doesn't directly answer your question but I guess one reason might be that they already provide a free version so releasing the paid version would just get you in strife?

Sure, if you want to understand stuff written in C/C++ then that's an obvious use case for learning it. The same goes for any language. Ruby isn't worse than Python by any stretch but my personal view is that it got really popular due to "Ruby on Rails", on its own it's very similar to Python which seems more widely used.

If security is what you mainly care about though, maybe you'd just enjoy diving straight into rust rather than C++.
Thanks ! And yes, the command line still has a long way to go !
It's classic tit-for-tat / who blinks first.

The real issue is Garmin's lack of communication.

> What happens in bankruptcy? They sell their assets for fair market value.

Maybe.

The other thing that could happen is that their assets get valued by some 3rd party and the publishers own IA's assets as part of the settlement (who presumably destroy them).
Not as far as I know. In fact, the system prides itself on allowing you to modify everything in it.

One striking demo I saw once a few years ago (so details are a bit hazy) involved the become: message. This is a special operation for swapping references around. "X become: Y" has the effect of everything that previously referred to X to now refer to Y, and everything that previously referred to Y to refer to X.

So the demo was to execute something like:

White become: Black.

which immediately switched all white pixels to black and vice versa.

I think the person giving the demo even demonstrated

True become: False.

though that made the VM unusable pretty much immediately IIRC.
Yikes. You make some pretty strong claims that are not credible on their face.

1. "Not adaptive in any situation..."

Putting aside the many problems with evolutionary psychological explanations (just-so theory, underdetermination, so-called disjunction and grain problems), there's actually an very strong argument to OCD's adaptive role, both at the individual (threat response) and group. I think the group argument is most compelling, as various degrees of neuroticism have very high upside for risk management over time.

Or take depression for example. It can serve, theoretically, to reduce risk of conflict and death when social hierarchies might be in flux, it's a way to honestly signal a problem to ones group, it could be a mechanism to accurately try and signal a problem to oneself like physical pain does, its been theorized to potentially reduce risk of infection, etc.

2. These genes very clearly do not weed themselves out of the gene pool. In fact, mental illness has been on the rise, probably mostly because neurodiversity has been increasingly pathologized. The social construct in which these are considered disordered is hugely important.

3. Your comment about that empathy snp is extreme genetic essentialsm and determinism. Moreover, it's a single snp. I don't know of a single researcher who'd claim that something as complicated as empathy is either toast or not toast from a single snp.
I think I've seen this on the show Silicon Valley. Braindrain they called it I think. So it can't be that uncommon...
If hinkley is not American he might not so much be biased against country music as wholly ignorant about it. That's one of the few cultural aspects of American culture you haven't managed to successfully export abroad (alongside American Football and the Ambrosia "salad").

As a foreigner I'm definitely familiar with the songs hinkley talks about, while I have no idea what a country Christmas song even sounds like.

>I think not having a first doesn’t have to be discriminatory

What do you mean by this more specifically? If you're a part of a minority with a history of oppression, which I hope we can all agree is true for black people in the US, are you saying there's zero things questionable about constantly pointing out that someone is black when they enter a "typically white" area of sports or other activity?

I have always taken for granted that the definition of "racism" is not necessarily the same as "hating someone due to their race", but more generally "defining someone primarily by their race in a situation that does not call for it and only secondly by individual attributes". Examples of where it may be "called for" is obviously up for debate, could be highly relevant in medical trials for example.
> This ends up being one of the biggest reasons I enjoy living in Thailand

Only visited briefly, but was going to post that they seem to get it right in Thailand. Some of the best restaurants are on the porch of someone's house, there's usually some kind of corner shop below most large buildings, most places are walkable or have adapted some kind of small persona transport.
I honestly don't have much sympathy for that particular plight. Living in the shadow of your parents is the tax you pay for being born into tremendous wealth? Sign me up.
I've seen "nigger" used in a non-racist way (even followed up later with a "obviously this isn't just black people and not all black people are like this"), but still wouldn't recommend its general use.
Again, more magic comments.

The proposed feature is great, but the unwillingness of the Go team to use a separate, clearly defined project file or at the very least a separate syntax in your code file leads them to stuff every additional feature into comments, a space shared by human notetaking.

Let's have a look:
* Build constraints (// +build linux)
* Code generation (//go:generate <command> <arguments>)
* Cgo, you can even stuff entire C programs in the comments (// #include <stdio.h>)
* Cgo flags (// #cgo CFLAGS: -DPNG_DEBUG=1)
* and now this, file embedding (//go:embed html/index.html)

Most novices would assume the commented out code does nothing, and rightly so in my opinion.
Half of these features aren't even code-file specific but project-wide, making deciding which file to put them in hard and looking them up even harder.
Europe is as you described.

2. This is not only pessimistic but too pessimistic and also counterproductive (unless one wish to drive society faster to the edge.)

Kind of agree. I guess if you made a real poll between Americans on if they wanted

1. Trump

2. Biden

3. A randomly selected choice between 5 men and 5 women that were decent, smart, had succeeded in life despite being nice

then I guess people would vote for 3 in the poll.

The American system seems to favour bad compromises lately.
Are you suggesting that a company that's copying Uber - is copying them right down to the shittiest details of the management culture?

Other features will be added, this is just the beginning.
Your shortened title is incorrect, though. It's a consulate that was asked to shut, not the embassy. Crucial difference!
What I don't understand is how a system which is totally unethical at its foundation could even have a discussion about the diversity problem.
That's like a violent thief discussing how wrong it is to discriminate.

The system is built on violence, coercion and theft is my point.
You can do that offline with Garmin watches right now, along with heart rate data, and can view GPS+HR using a variety of online platforms like Strava. The .FIT files are stored on the watch itself and can be accessed over USB.

The online features that aren't currently working involve syncing wirelessly with your phone and their servers, and more uniquely analytics on training (effectiveness, recovery, records, etc.) that your method doesn't seem to offer.
This is a very localized issue. Most people (I included) do not get even free lunch at work and there is no free transit to office either.

Both are cheaper than average (I think the buss is 1/2 the normal ticket price and the lunch is 2/3 of normal "take out" price) but certainly not free.

Everyone is also thinking this the wrong way around. People are thinking "how would this fit my current lifestyle" instead of "if this is the new normal, how would I change my lifestyle and would it be better over all".

I don't live in a big city even now, my commute is about 20minutes each way with a car. As it currently stands if I can stay working completely remotely I probably will and I will be selling my apartment and looking for a house in a more rural area. Something larger than my current apartment so I could have an actual office (in an ideal world there would be a separate building that would act as office / workshop). Currently I'm struggling with no dedicated office space, but that is because being 100% remote wasn't an option.

I get that many people have grown to expect free lunches and whatever from their work, but in over all work force thous people are in tiny margin group and while it sure would be sad if they lose the privilege, but needs of the many and so on.
It was one thing when the Mayor of Portland himself got tear gassed. If you have judges coming down from the bench to enforce a ruling, you’ll either hear it a mile away, or when it’s too late; either way, the judges always get their way. That is the law. Judges embody the rule of law in America, in these rare moments of checks and balances on a national scale, and the rest of the time too.
I think it’s more reflective of corporate lobbying.
Can’t imagine paying for that. It’s one big pile of outrage that I’m not at all convinced is a net positive in my life
It's a bit crappy for people living in the immediate vicinity but that's just a tiny fraction of the people who get value from nearby local businesses. The housing prices also reflect that and it's usually cheaper rent if you're above/next to a popular grocery store, bar or restaurant.

I am extremely biased as I'm in my mid twenties and don't even have a driver's license as the only time it comes in handy in Oslo is if you're moving furniture.
You're looking at it from your personal, one-person point of view, but it was made by and for Google, who struggle with tens, hundreds of millions of LOC and thousands of developers whose time is often spent on waiting. There was a post yesterday (I believe) about just that, how a developer in a FAANG managed to do a few tasks at best per week.

How fast you can churn out code in a language becomes completely irrelevant at those scales. How fast you can get to grips with a codebase, make the change, compile it, test it, and have it reviewed is much more important.

And that's where Go comes in; it doesn't have much cleverness so most code is instantly readable. Take a random file from https://github.com/golang/go/tree/master/src and any developer will understand it and be able to make changes. They optimized the language for compile speed (https://stackoverflow.com/a/8673468/204840); the joke goes that they came up with Go while waiting for a compile. And because the code is so simple and standardized, reviewing also takes less time.

I'm mostly thinking of Scala as the direct opposite of Scala which has as many different coding styles as it has developers, and Go's language design process as rebelling against most other languages that seem to want to put other language features in them for the sake of it (I'm still bitter about classes in Javascript and streams in Java).

TL;DR: If you're a solo developer or work in a small team, then Go may not be for you if you're measuring personal productivity. Its value starts to show if you scale up, and you go from churning out code to maintenance mode.
Facts cannot be copyrighted, but a unique compilation of facts can be. This became settled law many decades ago with sports almanacs.

Furthermore, Maxmind adds non-factual entries to the database so they can identify it uniquely as their work. Map makers do something similar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trap_street
A few things that will likely come from this:

1) It will take away the only social outlet many people have. Someone may reply that work was never the appropriate place for that anyways but the real world has never worked that way. Humans have always combined work and social life since the beginning of time. And there won’t be some spontaneous rise in people joining social clubs or anything like that. It will only result in further isolation, further mental problems, further strange behaviors.

2) This will make hiring even more parameterized. Employers will count even more on pieces of paper and LinkedIn connections to gauge whether or not to hire someone. No ability to gauge someone’s presence.

3) This further enables corporations to have no concern for geography. No skin in the game. No loyalty to a place. No loyalty to people. You are now competing with people who are willing to work for a fraction of the price you do, and on paper you both have the same credentials.
In that case I would get that as written note / contract with their signature and then move to more expensive area.
> the open source FPGA tooling pretty much completely ignored them, even though they're critical to commercial development.

"ignored" as in the vendors aren't cooperating with the developers of the open source tools? What the opensource tools are doing is hard enough as is. When you consider how fragmented FPGA chips are it's difficult to support a wide variety of them even if you wanted.
The rise is expected imo. The US politics are highly polarized and mob movements are very common. Mix this with a highly connected society and that's what you get.

The generational discrepency also suggests this, with older people not as tightly connected as younger.

Some shops do not want to serve you if they can’t speak language. Uncomfortable for them, you and other customers (that is their thinking), they might not even have menu you can understand and they speak no English except Hi bye

It is also possible you wondered into a snack shop which is kind of like hostess bar but not. Basically part of the service is a conversation which is hard to do if you do not speak the language.

My original title misidentified the Chinese site in Houston, Texas as being an embassy - this is my mistake. They are both consulates of the respective countries. My bad.

Their main distinguishing market at the moment seems to be wearables for athletes as well as dedicated GPS for aviation, etc., not consumer turn-by-turn navigation where smartphones can perform adequately. For example, tracking and providing analytics for training, particularly for running, bicycling, and other distance-based outdoor activities.

Whilst I agree with your comment, I would like to point out / express my personal opinion that having to rely on your editor to churn out boilerplate like error checking is a smell; it reminds me of ye olde Java where Eclipse could generate hashCode and equals. Later on I always used Lombok, and if I were to work in Java again I'd push hard for Kotlin, which has stuff like that built in. I know Scala does as well but it's a can of worms, it has too many options and no two developers will write the same code.
I'm not quite that strict, but...

At least a few times a week I leave my phone at home for an extended period of at least 4 hours. I also always leave my phone at home if I have to run a small errand. Miraculously, my world somehow doesn't catch on fire if I don't have it on my person every waking minute.

If I do need to take it with me somewhere I often just leave it in my car or pack(on silent) and check it every couple hours.

If I have to be notified of something time sensitive, then and only then, I turn my watch's bluetooth on for as long as is required and turn it off once I get the all clear.

I'm not trying to be Luddite, I find my phone genuinely useful and value having a nice one, I just don't care to be shackled to it.

Added bonus: I'm never worried about the ever growing size of my phone because its rarely on my body, and I always get between 2-4 days of battery life.
54% of Chinese Americans have a Bachelor’s or higher, 50% for foreign born. Things have changed in the last 30 years. Trust me when I say 50% of Chinese in China do not have a university degree.
