Ah, Julia shares my goals, but I really don't like it's methods.

To be we absolutely need static types and super high level stuff to both:

- keep the code closer to it's purpose

(e.g. do linear algebra and proof of why this program does the stats you want it to together)

- be super architecture agnostic

(With lambda generalized to arbitrary categorizes we can just elaborate to Vect and fuse functional pipelines with matrix multiplication).

I work mostly on backend API development but frequently dive into frontend development. I enjoy refactoring just as much as creating from scratch, and I know the importance of documentation and good communication. I give back to my community using my skills and am eager to grow with good mentors.
Exactly because I see LLVM as an example, given that not everyone using it contributes 100% back upstream.

I wouldn't consider BSD layer from NeXTSTEP an example of success for BSD's market adoption, given that not everything goes upstream, by now it hardly represents the current state of affairs.

If anything it represents what would have happened without Linux, all major UNIX vendors would continue to take pieces of BSD and not necessarily contribute anything back.
Slavery or child labor would work even „better“. Can you think of a reason they don‘t go that way?

Of course you can argue about operating within legal limits, but the lines between employment vs contract work and contract work vs economic slavery blur easily.

Great work! I'm just trying it out
Thank you, his air traffic control paper was definitely one of the papers involved, but I couldn't quite remember the right name of the design field - "computer-supported cooperative work"[0] - so I failed to find it again. I also read few other ones, including one about the London underground that described a situation where these traffic controllers were both looking at their screens, but also constantly listening to their colleagues in their periphery. This let them adjust their strategies for handling emergencies on-the-fly as new information became known[1].

Isn't this the difference between common law and civil law? That under common law the existing body of written laws doesn't need to cover every eventuality, because equitable principles and "natural" law can be applied when necessary
I don't buy the argumentation of the article. It centres around 'opinion power' the ability to set a political or cultural agenda and steer democratic discourse, and argues that holding platforms accountable makes them more legitimate wielders of opinion power, which the author claims is a mistake.

I think there's some things wrong with this. First off I don't think Facebook or Google exercise a lot of opinion power, in particular given their dominance. Yes, the article is right to point out they support climate change action, or fight certain internet regulation, or gay rights but this is very, very mild, often non-partisan civic stuff and often just financial self-interest.

I don't see Facebook or Google going around wielding the power of legacy media over politics, having a clear political slant in how they operate, or whatever. They mostly stay out of it, again probably for business reasons.

More importantly though I think the article romanticises smallness, citing Barlow's cyberspace independence, advocating for less concentration, transparency and so on. It's the usual anglosphere-centric argument. Just give people transparency and get rid of all the big bad guys and the enlightened citizens of the cyberspace will find their way out of it, nothing new about that.

I don't think this is realistic. People will use large social networks and platform giants because they provide the best service, they're not going to dig through transparency reports or statistics about algorithm influence, and this means corporate responsibility is necessary. The author may not like it, but large firms are the principal actors in our society, and they need to be held accountable, even if that gives them a seat at the table.

But they all _actually_ have only 3 menu items: Chicken over Rice, Lamb over Rice, and Falafel over Rice.

Yes, and as I mentioned you need to divide between FG and BG colors.

All a little moot because it seems to me like the code uses 3 bits for color.

Indeed, both multi-char and multi-codepoint glyphs. I also think the whole "matrix of glyphs" thing breaks down pretty severely when you want BiDi support for instance. The article mentions someone working on UTF-8 support. I wonder what that looks like.

How is this any different than having the police go from business to business asking for security camera footage, analyzing the footage over a time period, connecting faces to names, and then going out and questioning those people? Both seem to be ways of tracking who is in an area at a given time, but geofencing is a significantly more efficient method.
> I'm saying that they are here to protect us

The police do not exist to protect you, nor do they have a duty to do so. The police exist to keep civil society orderly - that may mean protecting people at times, but often times simply apprehending criminals post-crime is enough.

Put another way, no amount of police are going to prevent you from being murdered or having your wallet stolen, but more police will probably catch more murderers and thieves after their crime.
For me it was random.

I got a PhD in physics, where the job market was brutal. (I don't know if I was in the top 3% in talent but I certainly was not in the top 3% at either office politics or musical chairs.)

I got into software, did Perl, PHP, Java, ColdFusion, whatever paid. I started developing advertising-supported web sites that gathered content through an "A.I." pipeline just before Deep Learning broke in the news. That got me work on text analysis, productizing a deep-learning based search engine and some other work. I also wound up chasing some dead ends and going sideways at times -- at the moment I am doing pretty much ordinary front end but I am focused on getting really good at it.

(Something I learned the hard way is that real A.I. systems are going to have to work closely with humans. If somebody wants you to build an A.I. that does a 'difficult' or 'impossible' task the first thing to do is build a U.I. that lets a person do the task manually, otherwise where are you going to get the training set from? Starting with anything else is outright malpractice.)
There's a dig at Sheldon Brown's bike lock strategy, that I think shows technology creep. At the time SB (who passed away quite a while ago) developed his strategy, small, battery powered angle grinders weren't a thing. Now they are so the threat model has evolved. Luckily I live in a relatively low-crime area and ride relatively worthless bikes. Of course the one bike I ever had that was worth something was... stolen.

Haven't been around earthquake zones much, but I will say that the pre-hurricane drama is all media hype. They can mostly be ignored, leading you to at least as good of an outcome.

IMO, it's well-known that the media will hype up the danger for pretty much a whole state worth of area / coastline. But the really serious damage from a hurricane is mostly limited to a medium size town worth of area. Trouble is, nobody knows exactly what area that will be. Hurricanes can be very large, but most of the area of them doesn't amount to much more than a pretty hard rainstorm. Possibly a few tree limbs down and some power outages. Not likely to be much major damage to houses or cars outside of that small high-intensity zone.

Yes it's best to buy and/or check your hurricane supplies around the beginning of the season and avoid the buying panic in the days before a predicted strike. Having supplies for a few days to a week without power, water, or ability to buy food from stores is prudent.
Sounds like the market is just self-optimising in a way? Obviously to the detriment of those left behind.
This seems so obviously unconstitutional to me that I can't believe it was even tried.

But can they get a warrant? Some business owners might say yes, but are they free to say no?
Would you say that an EU law restricting companies from complying with a US warrant is restricting the companies, or the US?

(In practice the way this is done is with data location rules, that EU data must be stored in the EU, which is clearly a restriction on the way the company operates)

Having had to cut through my own U lock with a portable angle grinder I can verify that it is not too difficult. The cables are only for the snatch-and-grab prevention.

Only minor nitpick is that Campagnolo make wheels and groupsets, not bicycles themselves.
A lot has been carried over. The alphabet (alpha, bravo, charlie,...), units (nautical miles and knots).

Right of way rules are similar sailplanes have priority over powered aircraft, otherwise the one on the right has priority and in case of a face to face, you should turn right (or go up/down, but certainly not left)

They didn't completely reinvent navigation for aircraft and a lot of carry over is expected. I'd say port/starboard vs left/right is more of an exception than a rule, generally the same conventions are used when applicable.
Strange response by OF, to cap the fees. They're actively limiting their own take (20% cut btw, kind of disgusting).

I think the right thing to do would have been to refund those whom she defrauded with false advertising. If I understand the situation, she sold photos as one kind of content, but delivered something else in the end?

If I bought a bag of potatoes but it turned out to be charcoal when I opened it, I'd bring it back to the store for a refund or exchange.
Both the baseball and Elvis print have some monetary value to them though. I don't buy much in terms of collectors items, but when I do it's always under the thought that I will always be able to get my money out of it if I wanted.
