I'm an accomplished server software and distributed systems engineer with a bunch of experience running wacky stuff in AWS. I'm also a musician and embedded hacker in my free time. I'm looking for a team that's doing innovative and meaningful work, but beyond that I'm pretty open to anything. I also have some devrel/teaching experience and love integrating those skills into my day-to-day work.

Immutability makes updating deeply nested data structures more difficult, since you have to update every level with the updated copy of one of its children.
You can't prove a negative.

If the only source for something was TASS or the CGTN and you couldn't find any other source, it would be treated as false until proof of the contrary.

The burden of proof is on the person claiming something to provide a credible source. The CIA is not a good source for things that conflict with US interests.
It is pretty easy to spoof GPS locations, at least in Android, in a way that is undectable to apps using location services. Might be a better option for these drivers?
Not sure this has anything to do with tiktok, but just wanted to say that :

Every compagny that is not paying taxes, is stealing money from all peoples in the country. They use loopholes in the law to make in legal. But that should not be acceptable. It pain me to live in a world where most peoples doesn't care to be robbed constantly.
The premise is that you're learning from top people in each field. Sure, in some cases they are people who have been very successful at self-promotion in their field, but I don't remember seeing anyone on there who was there purely through self-promotion.

The target market is basically people who would have paid $20 for a book with the same content. To them, it's not a bad deal.

Depending on how good you are with server admin-ish stuff, you might want to get a digital ocean VM instead, and set up a wireguard server there. As a bonus, you'd be able to put some simple logic (for example, if you are serving website from home computer, you could generate an error page if your home internet is not working)
OTOH the fragility of the original comment was about wilfully disrupting transports.

It's pretty easy to significantly distrust rail transportation. There are hundreds of rail suicides every year, and each and every time the line shuts down until everything's cleaned up. And of course you could destructively interfere with the train or railway, a rather common sabotage operation during WWII.
Reading this changelog I discovered that htop has a config file and a config menu. I started using it years ago as a drop-in replacement for top and I never went beyond the default but there are some very nifty things hidden in the option, such as being able to display process trees and custom thread names among many other things.

If like me you never bothered to look into it just hit F2 in a running htop and start browsing the options.

This one fact is (in my mind) the death-knell of this whole misguided idea.

Also note that once you set up the case sensitivity status on a directory/device, it could be hard to change it. For instance, if I have two files named "I.txt" and "i.txt" in a directory that is case-sensitive, I can't change that directory to case-insensitive using English rules. But I could using Turkish rules. You would have to do a full scan of the area you are planning to change in order to check whether anything would clash.

Also, you have the problem of filename searches. At the moment, it is possible to open a file by name in a directory that has lots of files, and the filesystem can do an indexed search for that file. If you change it to case-sensitive, then either you need to do a linear search instead (which could absolutely cripple some use-cases), or store an indexed case-insensitive lookup table, with the additional proviso that the index must be able to give you back the canonical filename. If the case-sensitivity changes, then this index must be recreated from scratch.
Wasn't that a different organization that operated in the 50s? The modern RFA started in the 90s and gets federal funding but is not associated with the CIA. They probably should have used a new name, but is there any other reason you think they are a CIA rag?
> "after all, most people are well aware of the sorry state of our K12 education."

K-12 education is not so blanketly "sorry". basic literacy has been at 99% for decades. could it be better? potentially. obviously so? not really, at least not to a sufficient level of consensus.

with that said, i'd love to see rationalism (not just logic, but also inductive reasoning) taught and honed throughout primary/secondary school to improve our collective abilities to discern and deconstruct narratives of all kinds.

It happened in Germany, where he went to jail, because he regularly showed forbidden Nazi insignia as well as regularly doing the Hitler salute and shouting "Sieg Heil" - all of which is forbidden by law in Germany.

Especially after he was already on probation for earlier transgressions against these laws.

He did not go to jail because he "only" teached his dog (it was actually his dog) a poor taste trick.

It doesn't matter.

Sometimes in order to achieve your goals you must compromise or risk loosing the footing you already have, because you have close to zero chances of succeeding.

If RMS had compromised on GCC in the '00s, i.e. if GNU had spun off the C/C++/ObjC front end as a separate GPLv2-or-later library upon which something like clangd could have been made, Clang would have never existed. Yes, LLVM would have still been present, but as a special-case backend that used GCC as its frontend instead than its own, as they were planning to do since the beginning. All these improvements you talk about would have been done under the GPL, and not BSD licenses or proprietary. IDEs like Xcode and such would still be proprietary like they are nowadays, because there was a 0% chance of getting Apple or whomever to release them under the GPL.

It doesn't matter how much strong your moral principles are, or how much you value integrity. The world is definitely more pragmatic about software and values different things than RMS; while this might or might not be beneficial to our overall society, that's the way it is. Ignoring it is myopic, if it does not outright amount to shooting yourself in the foot.

It's hard to know how to feel about this complex situation. On one hand:

- The Chinese government clearly has its tendrils in TikTok and uses it to push its oppressive censorship policies around the world

- The security implications of giving China a backdoor into a large percentage of American phones is too concerning to ignore

On the other hand:

- Explicitly targeting specific companies feels wrong. If security and censorship are real concerns here, Congress should be passing laws that apply to all companies, not just TikTok

- Even though there are sound reasons to restrict TikTok, this is still a transparently protectionist policy by the Trump admin and fits right into his nationalistic, totalitarian, xenophobic playbook. A broken clock is still right twice a day, I suppose

- Requiring a sale to an American company is the mirror image of China's forced technology transfers for foreign companies. Two wrongs don't make a right

I think the best scenario is for Congress to preempt Trump with laws that protect American security and free speech interests without executive action. That's easier said than done, though.
This requires you to upload a labeled dataset. My idea was more of like you enter instances of text without label and ML model will label those texts for you.
I agree. I am most annoyed by the use of maxims with something so subjective and context-sensitive as code. I've read and written code with 4 (and maybe even more) levels of indentation that made complete sense and code with 2 levels that should probably be refactored into only having one.

I've seen people propose things as dubious as a character limit per function body. Most programming languages are so flexible that no matter what guidelines you set for your project, there will still be very bad code that conforms to all of them.

Forcing function splitting by rules is a good example of this. Very large functions are probably doing too much, but where and how you split them matters incomparably more than if you split them at all.
I've long thought there's a potentially-useful/missing piece of software infrastructure that's midway between code or data-written-as-code and a full blown database (even one as small as Sqlite).
I lived in Houston for a while. It's true that the Rita evacuation was a disaster, for multiple reasons. Even absent the traffic jams getting out of the city, I had also heard from some friends who did evacuate that there was little gas and no hotel rooms to be found for ~400 miles. I decided to stay at home, rather than risk getting stuck in the middle of the road somewhere in a car out of gas when the hurricane actually hit. It worked out pretty well.

I think the big lesson of Rita was that you really, really shouldn't evacuate if you don't need to, because too many people in low-risk neighborhoods evacuating will take up all of the highway capacity, gas, and regional hotels for all of the people in flood zones that really do need to evacuate. Like seriously, don't evacuate unless being in an out-of-gas car stuck on a highway somewhere is definitely better than being at home. This was put in place for hurricane Ike, to mostly good results.
> But in either case the donator has to be in a position to afford it, which typically means significant income from other means.

Even if someone has the time and resources to contribute to OSS, it does not automatically follow that they should be willing to spend said time and resources on notarization (of all things).

Put another way, not every purchase is worthwhile just because you have a million dollars in the bank.

Get a grip - PLEASE!

"The absolute joke" of a SC decision was unanimous - that means every justice, including the most liberal, agreed here. In a country divided, it's good to see some folks can still carry out a basic set of functions (be glad HN posters are not in charge!! Law would change daily).

The history is that FLSA was originally designed to curtail sweatshop work, but weirdly (and perhaps because of union involvlement) the wage and hour division didn't actually go after sweatshops (which had HORRENDOUS conditions back when FLSA came into effect) but went after what at the time were considered reputable / normal companies. One big area (which drove lots of overtime cases) was when is an employee doing stuff FOR an employer.

Is driving to work for benefit of employer?

What if employer assigns you to a new job site that is a longer commute?

What if you enter through gate A and need to get to workstation Q (factories had grown a LOT).

There was just a lot of disagreement over what was the time "worked" which mattered a lot more with minimum wage and overtime laws (vs old per day where working hours were take it or leave it or per piece rates).

Anyways, in part by overemphasing attacks on more traditional employers (and not going after sweatshops) there was a backlash - and revisions passed that made clear (and likely overly conservative) that preliminary / postliminary activity is not compensated. That's walking to your car in a big parking lot and everything else.

It's a bummer, because companies COULD lower a lot of this wasted time if there was an incentive for them to do so, and that incentive under law is gone.

Not for SC to change that. The other issue is especially with organizing compaigns, if implementation of a law is difficult, the fights and claims are unending even for employers trying to do reasonable things. Ie, start clock when employee walk in door pre-security screening, claim gets made that clock should start when employee gets out of car in parking lot. Start clock then, claim get's made clock should start when employee drives into company property (obviously this hurts companies with their own lots and helps companies with paid third party lots) etc etc.

So a lot more nuance to your "absolute joke" claim - the reality is much more likely that your comment is the "absolute joke" to use your own language. I'd encourage you to dial back some of the constant outrage type commenting and look a bit deeper.
It is, as anyone coding since mid-80's would be aware of, what is its market share by now?
