Who's 'we'? There are three factions in this debate in the Netherlands.

Most Dutch couldn't care less about KLM-Air France since it stopped being the national airline (nostalgia aside, KLM-Air France is just another big international airline). A large part of this group just wants cheap tickets to sunny holiday locations, and usually fly with price-fighters like EasyJet (not KLM-Air France).

Some more commercially minded folk do feel that we need a strong KLM-Air France and have its hub of Schiphol airport grow to act as the engine block of our economy.

Then there is the non-negligible number of Dutch who would like to look forward to a future that is more sustainable than what we have now, and who feel that we could really do with a little less flying overall. Also that the boost-to-the-economy argument is tenuous at best. The opposition to opening Lelystad Airport as an annex for mainport Schiphol is proof that this is not just a fringe group of NIMBY's.
Home Security Systems are largely marketing gimmicks.

I wonder if any of Google's large "diversification" pushes have yielded success?

> it's a general indifference to social consequences in China tho

Interesting parallel to learned helplessness. [1] (Note: not making a value judgement, just using the psychological terminology)

If (a) you are a company that exists in a state where the government can and does intervene at any time for purposes of social engineering, then (b) you would expect, over time, to develop a culture that deprioritizes considering social consequences, as (c) it's not something that's reliably in your control.

By taking a more active hand in private-social interactions, it would seem the CCP ironically makes those same companies care less about it proactively, and simply follow the letter of the law.

I'm on a "low Google diet" myself as I'm not at all a fan of how my data gets scooped up and resold.

That being said, while I disagree with their business practices, I think their information security is one of the best. For contrast, imagine Equifax running your home security... :)
That's a pretty uninformed reading of the situation as it happened. If you followed conservative media throughout the process it wasn't at all obvious that establishment Republicans were going to actually mount a defense of the President. There was a lot of wavering back and forth as the narrative evolved and was fought over. It was not automatic at all.
Seems like a bad idea to me. But I'm someone who would never use or recommend ADT in the first place. People don't seem to realize... You can run your own serious alarm system (DSC is a great brand) and then self-monitor with devices like the Envisalink. This integrates with Home Assistant too. All the awesome functionality for $0/mo.
My wife has gone back to work for half-time (4hr/day), fortunately I work remotely in a remote-first company so we can handle the COVID situation like this:

(my wife works 07:00 - 11:00, back at home ~11:40)

- 07:00/08:00 - wake up, take care of 2 kids (breakfast, clothes etc.)

- xx:xx/11:00 trying to work while watching kids playing around/taking care of them (chat/documentation/tasks/emails/programming), sometimes I work on my side-projects

- 11:00 - daily standup at work (kids knows that they need to be silent/calm at that time as I do it in the same room where they are (to keep an eye on them as their 5 & 1.5yrs old))

- 11:40/19:00 - working in separate room focused, with coffee/lunch break in the meantime (at home, with family)

- 19:00/20:00 - bathing kids, dinner etc.

- 20:00/21:00 - sometimes further work if needed, or starting family time

- 21:00/22:00 - family time, putting kids to sleep

- 22:00/23:30 - chill time with my wife

- 23:30/00:30/01:00 - working on my side projects
It’s more of the fact that the approach the devs chose is suboptimal.
Asylum seekers who can even get as far as the UK are necessarily richer and more resourceful than most — because the average monthly salary in e.g. Syria is 149,000 SYP [0] (~= 222 GBP) which means most of those who could even leave Syria in the first place had no real choice and had to flee to much closer places to Syria such as Turkey or Iraq [1], and those who can reach the UK will overwhelmingly be either be high-skilled, rich by dumb luck, or minors sent by their families.

This argument applies to basically all asylum seekers, not just those from the Syrian civil war.

That aside, how many unskilled jobs that don’t require idiomatic grasp of English in local accents (which would include cashiers, baristas, and other customer-facing roles) aren’t being replaced by robots and offshoring?

Of course, you're correct that there could be a rationale for brexit. But that begs the question: what is it? After 100s of discussions with 100s of brexiteers, none has been forthcoming. They've made weird claims about soverignty\trade\immigration\fishing\passport-colour-schemes etc, but those all fall down when you introduce facts and yet brexiteers don't change their position. So the real rationale must be something else.

So we're presented with 2 possible realities:

* EITHER, there is no rationale for brexit beyond the "It's what I want and I don't know why but I do" rationale (weak right?). I might not agree with this, but I would respect it if that was what brexiteers said. I can't justify my love of chocolate but I still love it.

* OR, There is a rationale for brexit, but it is secret and cannot be shared with me, and people insist they will share it for unknown reasons, but then don't also for other unknown reasons.

This second position seems a little crazy, but I will admit it is technically possible. Perhaps 17million people have all been initiated into the secrets of brexit and my small remainer mind cannot fathoms such great matters...
I do it too and it's just habit. I have no idea how many articles or sources I want to cite or mention so they just get numbered.

As for the footnote vs inline style I find ugly urls a distraction while reading and it's easy enough to match up footnote numbers.
Most countries got their shit together and infection rates decreased. That means the same test capacity is now testing less severe cases, more preemptively across the population.

I can't help but think that at the other end of that spectrum lies the british infiltrated cop that once he got his mark arrested left the girl he was with undercover and the kid they had together, without any support, and with his former associates fully knowing, with the british court saying she didn't deserve any child support or anything.

I don't know where the line is or how it should be done, but I know as much as I know anything that it's not the proper solution if it ends with "and some innocent bystander live was (temporarily) ruined in the process".

(I used that exemple because it's the one I always remember as the court case marked my mind, but I'm sure most countries have an equivalent)
This really have nothing to do with this. My father is boycotting products since the 80s (being born in jerusalem in 68 and having links with orphanage sisters living the Israeli/palestine war from the "poor" side probably have something to do with it).

But this is not only that. This is a generation thing. You (and i say "you" as in: older generations) told us that if we don't agree, we have to vote with our wallet.

Not happy about climate change? Vote with your wallet then, are you still using cars and planes hypocrites?

You're not happy about how we treat pigs and cows? How about you stop eating meat and vote with your wallet? (this one was delightful. Never heard this again since 2010).

Younger people probably had it harder than i did, and i did start to boycott things early in my life when the inconvenience was not to high. Just to piss you off. I did never coordinate though or ask people to boycott something with me. I'm not the social kind of guy. But i understand why people my generation would do that. You told us to vote with our wallet, that this is the only power we have. Don't be astonished when we use it.
Rule of law is not conditional on reciprocity.
I also use Emacs, and I also harbor a profound distaste for Stallman's opinions on pretty much everything, some of which disagreement he and I have hashed out loudly in public before now. But I'm not uncomfortable with using, or unwilling to use, Emacs in the way that I would be Pleroma with the Soapbox frontend.

I think that's because Stallman's views don't have the same import that Alex Gleason's do. Stallman's apologia for pedophilia, for example, which you cite, is abhorrent - but it's not something that anyone takes seriously. Stallman's views on people who use platforms like Facebook or tools like Photoshop, namely that they deserve whatever abuse they receive for being too stupid or lazy to become programmers and sysadmins so they can use FSF products instead, likewise repel me - but, again, outside clapping at his talks and the very occasional hardliner, no one really cares enough about those opinions to act on them. There is no movement around those views of Stallman's. Not even the movement he helped originate seems much to heed him any longer.

The same cannot, unfortunately, be said of Alex Gleason. He's part of a concerted effort to deny young trans people access to gender-affirming, and in many cases thus actually lifesaving, therapies, ultimately in support of a paternalistic belief that the people with these opinions, rather than trans people themselves, get to decide what it means to be trans, and gatekeep access to medical and psychological support on that basis. They're not above such underhanded means as inventing official-sounding medical terminology ("rapid-onset gender dysphoria"), or attempting by manipulation of public opinion and legal systems to defund trans charities and aid organizations (Mermaids UK), to advance that cause. And while they have less support now than they might have four or five years ago, their movement remains very active, and still quite able to inflict harm.

So, I don't think the cases are really all that similar. In the abstract realm of pure ideas, sure, we could look at them as parallel examples of contrarianism. But the abstract realm of pure ideas isn't where we actually live. Here in reality, ideas exist in the context of the actions they motivate among people who believe in them. Stallman's weird gross ideas motivate nothing in particular, beyond maybe a little yelling and the occasional incoming F-bomb, among anyone of whom I'm aware. Gleason's weird gross ideas, by contrast, move people in ways that cause other people real harm.

Maybe you're willing to overlook that. It's definitely a choice you can make. It's not one with which I'd be comfortable, but we all have our own concepts of morality and ethics, and judge one another and the world in which we live accordingly.
> It's incredulous to think that anyone from the Rust community can put forth such a claim

If you talk about something so undefined as _the Rust community_, I'm pretty sure I can claim that _someone of them_ has said pretty much anything in existence.

Like some of the "why did you not write it in Rust" bros on any forum like Reddit or here might very well have writen some utter bullshit about other languages, would not be surprised.
I actually checked out r/GenderCritical just before it got banned -- and it's nothing like what you describe it as. I only found mature, good faith discussions regarding the trans issue.

How are you able to tell the state of the buildings in such details from the article alone? Unless I'm missing something, Rice pretty much addresses your comment in the article:

Related side note/question. I was on a project recently where postgres was used with a NodeJS JavaScript server app. It seems a bit backwards. Like you have the flexibility of a loosely typed server app but all the annoyance of a RDBMS. It just made development a nightmare. The 'strictness' if the system was just backwards.

Surely NoSQL + typescript is better for development (and potentially for performance).

Thoughts?
True but it doesn't really matter. When your brand name is synonymous with something unpleasant, most people won't try to decide whether it's intentional or not. There's a reason why you typically wouldn't pick words that have offensive/unpleasant meanings when branding commercial products.

I would argue about the roadmap being visual. When you present people with the gantt chart, people tend to focus more on the timelines rather than the direction. This inadvertently pushes you to follow clearly defined deadlines and makes your roadmap a release plan instead (which Jira or similar tool is much better at).

We've been experimenting with gantt-style vs a simple table/list-view [1] and found that in many cases the latter actually works better in presenting the product vision, albeit at the expense of longer reading times.

It isn't just India. Recent developments suggest that the initial idea is dead for certain topics. Although it still works flawlessly for more technical articles, it certainly is a bad place to get information for anything that has become remotely politicized.

There are many detractors that either try to white wash articles or the other way around.

My last contribution to wikipedia is probably 10-15 years old. I also did some not so constructive stuff like supplying unfavorable information about politicians I didn't like. Remained untouched by any editors until my guilty conscience removed it again.

Currently I feel that certain article inform me more about the inclinations of certain cliques of editors instead of the topic, exactly how it is described in the article.

The supposed fight against bias has introduced more of it. A lot of it.

The only thing I can think of is modules, which C++20 is planing to introduce. But I would be very surprised if anyone was accusing anyone else of "stealing" ideas. It's preposterous because 1. every language copies good features from others (that's a good thing) and 2. Rust has copied a lot from C++.

I wish people wouldn't talk about one or two people with a warped view as "the community".
Back in 2018 I spent six months trying to get a small software shop to implement automated backups as their answer to ransomware fears.(on top of the usual anti-malware and restrictions on lateral movement where we could put those in)

They didn't object to the idea insomuch as they had somehow convinced themselves that they needed some kind of security specific product. We were never able to tease the shape or color beyond a silver bullet.

When basic business continuity planning with simple tools that companies should have anyway for a dozen reasons still aren't deployed, I'm pessimistic that this phenomenon is going away anytime soon.

For me a lack of trust in Google wouldn't be security related but their committment to keeping going with the products in the long term.

Google have a reputation (rightly or wrongly) for dropping support for products quickly if they don't want them any more.

In the home security perspective installs can last decades, and changing suppliers can be expensive. that's not a good match for Google's approach.

Oh it does. This unintentional racism is still racism, structural racism in this case as a decently diverse QA could have prevented this outcome.
