> “Russiagate” is now about foreign policy in the Middle East?

I don't think you get my point at all. It's about any non-mainstream opinion on a political topic now.

Specifically, Russiagate led to increased censhorship by social media companies out of fear of being accused of hosting Russian bots. As a result, they overacted and are now banning everything in sight that's not mainstream enough.

That means the next Iraq War, which all mainstream media were for, is going to have marginalized position on social media as these sorts of opinions are 'fringe' and banned.

For example were this implemented back then, if you said Iraq did not have WMDs, you'd get a 'fact check' saying it did, even as that was false.

Anything with words like 'military-industrial complex' etc.

> People get banned from Twitter every day, on both sides of the aisle. A Wired article from October 2018 about people connected to the Occupy movement being banned

Right. That's exactly my point. They weren't banning people as aggressively prior to Russiagate, however that whole frenzy led them to be a lot more proactive about banning than before.

Furthermore, all this sets a precedent that I am certain the Republicans are going to be happy to take masterful advantage of once Biden is president.

All I am really saying is that while the FBI investigations themselves were fine in my opinion, the media frenzy and the resulting pressure on social media companies to ban everything in sight that's not NYT, (which does spread misinformation from time to time btw), so that they don't spread 'misinformation' was a short-sighted strategy that is very likely long-term going to be used against the left, which am not at all happy about.

It emits white light, but that's only one definition of color. Normally when we talk about color, we talk about reflection and absorption. If we shined a super sun on our sun and wore super sunglasses that block out all of out sun's relatively dim light, what would we see reflected back by the hydrogen-helium ball?
Because it is a stupid question.

Somebody asks what colour is the sun, the follow up should be why? Are they going to draw the sun on a piece of paper? Then expect a traditional red sun. Or yellow. Nobody draws the the sun as white.

Note that the sun is red, at dusk.
There are over 10,000 naturalizations per year with a 99% approval rate.

Your figure sounds like one of those weird Japanese legends. And I haven’t read Arudou’s naturalization story, but he’s well known for over-dramatizing everything and has an incredibly biased agenda so it’s probably best not to take anything he says too seriously.
I really like the Unison syntax:

fib = cases
0 -> 0
1 -> 1
n -> fib (drop n 1) + fib (drop n 2)

(drop is (-) for natural numbers, clamping to 0.)
this is why I ssh tunnel/VNC to my home PC. I suppose they could be key logging or screen capturing, but if they're doing that on my work laptop I don't want to be there anyway so I don't worry about it, but there is no browser history there at all.
Tell me, in the real world, how would you award this contract?
Me too, it's really annoying to have autocorrect keep trying to switch it to an s, even though it's perfectly correct.
I found out lately that you can even record the screen of a brand new iOS device using QuickTime when plugged via USB.

You can easily record the initial setup that way, which helped immensely with users working from home getting phone upgrades during the pandemic.
Why can't you have digital signatures of the original and have an ML model that can evaluate whether or not it matches? You could run a cloud service to host the signed originals and continuously update the model.
In many senses it's a good thing. The major fear is usually getting fired for it. However if you are in a position where that's not true or you can recover from it easily you should absolutely push back against that sort of nonsense.
Seems implausible to me. As one of the replies indicates, most periods at the end of lines won’t follow a quote, so this solution doesn’t work there.

Worse, it only applies to lines ending in a period. Those are extremely rare because hand-set lines typically ended with filler, in order to make all lines in a block of text equal length. See for example https://letterpresscommons.com/setting-type-by-hand/: “ As you are setting your line of type and finish the last word of the line, you’ll need to fill out the rest of your line with word spacing material”

I also would think most exclamation marks would not be wider than periods and commas. Why, then, are those typically rendered outside closing quotation marks?

https://faqs.cs.uu.nl/na-dir/alt-usage-english-faq.html says

“According to William F. Phillips (wfp@world.std.com), in the days when printing used raised bits of metal, "." and "," were the most delicate, and were in danger of damage (the face of the piece of type might break off from the body, or be bent or dented from above) if they had a '"' on one side and a blank space on the other. Hence the convention arose of always using '."' and ',"' rather than '".' and '",', regardless of logic.”

I don’t see obvious objections to that explanation.
Just to add, about half of my 25-minute commute is walking. So that’s some exercise I still need to make up.

Lovely phrasing for such a practice. Glad to see Alsup still fighting the good fight
It's not common in English for that distinction to accomplish the work that you're asserting it does. "Should" and "ought" are synonymous. "Ought" has a more formal tone, but outside technical settings in which the distinction might really matter, no one should be drawing any conclusions from the choice.
We just give it a different name.

At work we had that situation with Spring. In the far future, we would like to upgrade to Java > 8, which makes an upgrade to Spring 5 necessary. But the frontend module uses Spring Flow Portlets, which are deprecated and were removed in Spring 5. This was not really a concern though, until too many security issues were found that made the upgrade necessary. In the end we settled on leaving the frontend on Spring 4 and upgrading everything else. It is very ugly, but the only real issue so far is that Spring 4 cannot parse Spring MVC 5's REST encoding of exceptions. Fortunately, we will build a new frontend this year...
Luckily there are a lot of database vendors - it's a crowded marketplace.

So replying once in the negative reveals negligable information and probably does not risk identifying the vendor at all.
“Most winning” would be the correct alternative, with the same number of syllables although to me it does feel more concise. As an American, I also hate this made up word.

Yes. If you go to one of the first legal definitions of the term expert, that is what you get

"person who, by virtue of special acquired knowledge or experience on a subject, presumably not within the knowledge of men generally, may testify in a court of justice to matters of opinion thereon, as distinguished from ordinary witnesses, who can in general testify only to facts"

Regulators are not experts and they're not meant to be experts, they may consult experts if they require their knowledge. I'm also not sure what the point of the entire discussion is, I hope nobody believes that regulators somehow need to be quantum physicists and physicians and computer scientists and artists at the same time to make judgements about tech or anything else.

An example of the XCMD-heavy HyperCard stuff I worked on was the "Last Chance to See" Mac CD-ROM with Douglas Adams. A small team worked on it but the whole UI is done with XCMDs I wrote as is the audio streaming. I don't see an ISO for that online (well it would be two ISOs as it was a double-CD-ROM).

I would think that it would violate Due Process if PACER or any other public court record was needed for a case, but the person needing them could not afford them...

On a related note, I would think that it would violate Due Process if any piece of information relevant to any case, legal or otherwise, were available and not provided, that is, if there was some sort of barrier (monetary, legal, or otherwise) preventing its easy and complete acquisition by the public, or whoever was involved in a case and needed it...

Hmmm, when I investigated the HSFP in 2016, Immigration told me I had to get a job at a Japanese company, and THEN apply for said visa. You can't apply for the High Skill Visa, even if you have more than enough points to qualify (which I did), while you are job-hunting on a tourist visa, for example.

>>>What changed in 2017 was that if you could demonstrate that you had the points historically you could apply for a PR without ever having the HSFP visa. That's the process I used.

Yeah that's a big change.
I didn’t know about that, thanks for the tip!

You'd be suprised what games accidentally ship. I've seen everything from pdbs to unoptimized debug builds accidentally included. If you don't make those mistakes, you might still have std::type_info (or custom equivalents) / RTTI info and __FILE__ / __LINE__ spam from macros, that can still sneak their way in.

Suppose you fix all that - the game still has a good chance of including 1 or more scripting languages. They may be included complete in their original unobufscated glory. Or the bytecode might include unstripped debug information. Or the C++ <-> script binding layer might still include unobfuscated string identifiers.

If you're clever, you'll rebrand this lack of obfuscation as being "mod friendly" ;)

Another thing to keep in mind is I am sure some form of this eventually makes it into MacOS. No way Apple acquired all those gesture patents without having some kind of plan for them.
I learned that there are two types of bad customers:

- rude customers

- customers which are not market/product fit

For rude customers, please give them benefit of the doubt: maybe they are just in a bad mood that day. Your support team needs to understand that their job is to help customers to achieve their goal (not to talk about bugs). If you get a multiple rude answers after you try to help them, just cut them (refund and ban). Do not worry about twitter and social media things: only 3% of world population reads it. Do not worry if that customer thinks they are vip (like CEO of some random ‘ycombinator’ company). The successful people are amazingly polite.

For bad market/product fit, you need to explain how your product does not fit. Sometimes it is mistake of your sales giving them impression that you can do certain things. This is a hard problem.

In short, your customers will eventually define your company: in same way as in bar/restaurant business customers eventually define type of a bar/restaurant.
The concept of "bioavailability" might be too simple when talking about nutrition. Heme iron from animal products and vitamin A from liver are bioavailable to the point of being toxic. With the example of iron, our body has variable absorption rate based on how much we need; heme iron bypasses this mechanism and gives us extra iron.
The key part of your sentence being "a third party that can be trusted."

A trustworthy third party is NOT the group that is "the most smart". People trust locals that they relate to. If we are going to offload responsibility, I personally think it needs to be in the old fashioned democratic pluralism style that we had half a century ago. Local leaders know the people in the area better, and they have the time and motivation to hear the interests of more people.

I wasn't offended at all. I was a little overwhelmed by the apparent stupidity of the non sequitur response (and I use 'apparent' very deliberately -- it's possible you miswrote what you meant, or I misread it). I think this summarizes my reaction best:

As long as you are a US citizen you are expected to pay Federal income tax, no matter where you are in the world, and no matter where you earned it. The US and Eritrea are the only 2 countries on the planet with this policy. I think you can get your tax burden reduced if you can prove you've paid taxes to another jurisdiction, but don't quote me on that...
US has had the federal tax exclusion limit. As long as you are living outside the US for longer than 330 days a year, the first $110k of foreign earned income is tax free.

CMAK, AKHQ, Kafdrop, Kowl, Conduktor, Kafkatool etc.... why are there so many attempts to build a kafka UI? Does each one have its own use case? I'd think that something as large as "Kafka" in the software ecosystem would have a goto defacto standard UI for managing it.
Yes, but how well does it perform against something that isn't what might be their slowest (but thinnest and most portable, but somehow not cheapest) model?

Apparently, a Surface with a Ryzen 4800U exists and is coming out really soon.

The comparison isn't realistic because Apple's acquisition of PA Semi was a brilliant move, and no one makes an ARM that is anywhere near that level of performance, not even Qualcomm. I agree with Apple's decision to put their ARM on the desktop as their answer to the Intel dilemma.

In this case, an ARM vs ARM comparison is not an apples to apples comparison, Apple does not license their design to anyone else, ergo, the only way to make a fair comparison is to use the best commonly available part, which currently, is Zen 2 parts.

I expect a Zen 2 to crush a 2 year old Apple ARM, but I also expect a future Apple desktop and laptop design to keep up with Zen 3. I actually hope Apple can win the fight, but I also wish Apple would license their CPU to other manufacturers to promote the general adoption of more architectures in this space.

Yes, I get that. The problem is, with any other topic, the media would readily pick it up and maybe make a big story out of it before it could even bud.

I'm really really curious... a lot!

I was fashinated about how terraform does it's magic, so I studied terraform source code (just the part related to Hcl).

I like the idea to write a custom declarative language, with expressions and custom function.

As side project (just for fun) I'm writing a 2D Cad all with custom Hcl directives and geometric functions (intersections etc.).

Since for my job I need to draw and change..a lot.. solution architectures diagrams... so the Jumble idea was born.

And the fact that more employers will tolerate work from home means I have more job opportunities in the future. I had skipped lots of job opportunities because the longer commute time clashed with my dialysis schedule.
