Indeed, once can only imagine the deafening silence when HN is asked to boycott products that use Intel's Ice Lake 10nm core, which was developed in Israel.

That's not fair: you'll hear one word before the silence: 'whataboutism' :)
Still, it is reasonable to export a standard control interface to the user for site filtering and control.
I’m voting and campaigning for politicians that I might disagree with on 99% of all issues for the sole reason that they’re willing and capable of standing up to China.

For reference, my views are aligned with Sanders but I’d vote for Trump solely based on his actions towards China.

I’d also say boycotting Made in China and companies kowtowing to China isn’t as difficult as people say. You might not be able to boycott it 100%, but it’s not that hard to find alternatives to 90+% of the products.
> US greed gave China this power

Maybe from the U.S. perspective, but at this point there are heaps of countries around the world who at least claim to be dependent on China.

This is a matter of global moral cowardice; at least today, the U.S. is more ready to say no to it.
CCP always does such bad propaganda thing. Ironically Everything it tried to hide was always exposed fairly quickly, things it doesn’t hide turns out to be less known
Just Because It’s Natural Doesn’t Mean It’s Good
What's happening there is despicable. But to the best of my knowledge there's no extermination. There aren't hundreds of thousands being shot or gassed.
It looks more like a "cultural genocide", the kind we saw exercised against the Tibetans.
I understand the emotions over this issue, and I don't think the holocaust is beyond comparison, but in this instance the comparison falls short.
> Google Cloud's learning resource in Chinese is fewer than AWS/Azure

Yes, that's true. But it's not like there are a lot of learning resources in Chinese for AWS/Azure, either. At least compared to Aliyun (Alibaba Cloud). So likely it doesn't matter.
Just because something publishes conspiracy theories, doesn't mean it's always wrong. The US spying on its citizens was considered a conspiracy theory until Edward Snowden. A paedophile ring among the global elite was considered a conspiracy theory until Jeffrey Epstein. Most people in China would consider concentration camps in Xinjiang to be a conspiracy theory.
No one is blaming this on cancel culture, that'd be obvious nonsense, they're just saying cancel culture is applied selectively.
Religion is mainly used as opium for the masses
China puting people in concentration camps is evil, but has nothing to do with religion. Also the CCP days as ideological communism are long gone. And pretty sure Marx wouldn't condone any of the stuff you are implying.

See, easy, kept my mind open, and my mind didn't fall out.
I cannot find the answer to this anywhere: what algorithms will we actually use the quantum computers for?

Please skip Shor's algorithm, I understand this part. What else is there?
I agree with this being about workflows, not documents, but isn't branching and merging a workflow and storytelling tool?

It allows multiple people to work in parallel (and in private). When somebody sends a pull-request eventually, they are presenting a story of changes that they want to get into the document and people can discuss them and approve them individually. (Of course, git the tool isn't necessarily suitable for non-technical people, but git-the-workflow seems to be a good foundation.)

Could you elaborate on what such a tool could look like without git style branching?
That isn’t related to the point I am trying to make, and it isn’t an appropriate discussion on HN as it will only burn in flames.

Let me try again:

Idea - Religion is suffering. In a better world religion is unnecessary.

CCP - We are creating a better world by ridding it of religion.

Reality - Organized religion is a major threat to governments and their narrative.

The situation is that the CCP has high sounding ideals from Marx and other communist works. Reality is that religion is a threat to their power. That a narrative that rounding up these troubled people and re-educating them is necessary for the better world to happen.

This outrage is good, but I am simply pointing out that what is happening in China shouldn’t be surprising. The ideas of Karl Marx are only dangerous because people accept ideas without critical thought, and others use his ideas to further their own real agenda under such cover. It’s all straight out of ‘Animal Farm’.
Just der Wille zur Macht at work.

After reading and accepting that thesis, the world has become a much more obvious place for me personally.
The Problem of that they don't want to be secure in the sense you used.

They made it pretty clear that security is for them not a fundamental aspect of their service but an afterthought they have to follow because they would use customers elsewise.

I.e. security is still one of the lowest prioritise for them and only a priority art all because of public pressure

WestJet Introduces Its Zero-Tolerance Mask Policy
Effective, September 1, 2020, the airline will implement a zero-tolerance policy in support of the requirement for all guests, over the age of two, to wear masks and face coverings. Non-compliant guests will face penalties including denied boarding, return of the aircraft to the gate to offload the passenger and the suspension of travel on any WestJet Group (WestJet, WestJet Encore, WestJet Link and Swoop) aircraft for up to one year.
Well - it's not as if there was ever a time when he failed to spot important new trends because he was too set in old technological habits to realise how important they'd be.

Apart from that Internet thing, perhaps.
No developer is going to be sued for their application having no accessibility features. The one who might be sued is an employer forcing some employee to use the software to perform their task without any other alternative, essentially making it impossible for that task to be performed by that employee. Unless you are in a position to cause this, you are not going to be affected (and even then, you getting sued is very unlikely unless you are said employer).

In practice the worst that can happen to you is people with accessibility needs not using your software.

The github repository is mostly empty of code. There is a project (empty) for Arduino firmware, and it looks like they are using an Arduino Nano as the device controller. And there's a project (empty) for Android code. I'd love to see actual code.

My questions would be 1) How is the Android device communicating with the Arduino device? My guess would be wi-fi or bluetooth. 2) What image recognition software did they use in the Android code 3) What other sensors on the Android did they actually use and how? 4) Is there any way to port this to IOS? 5) Is it generalizable to other hardware builds?

The hardware looks very simple. As a software developer I would want to know a lot more about how it works from the coding side.
The Bias in the Machine
With C++ I can get zero cost abstractions without Rust like compilation times, in spite C++ fame of slow compile times.

How?

By making heavy use of binary third party dependencies, every module gets its own binary library, no crazy use of metaprogramming, incremental compilation and linking.

My WinUI/UWP professional work compile in a fraction of my Gtk-rs toy applications.

I keep measuring improvements in this area, and hopefully Microsoft's own pain with Rust/WinRT might trigger some improvements.
Those same companies like Google intentionally break IP filtering too through fancy proxying. They do this to make it impossible for local admins to pick and choose among their services.

You should add graphs for Vietnam, Taiwan, Thailand, etc.

We know what China did to eradicate the virus. None of the other countries you listed did anything close.

China completely locked down, and they also individually quarantined infected persons and their contacts in isolation rooms (Reference from February: https://www.npr.org/2020/02/24/808995258/china-has-built-ove... and https://www.vox.com/2020/4/28/21238456/centralized-isolation... ) . The other countries you’re listing didn’t do that - they let people with mild coronavirus continue to circulate in their households and sometimes in the population, spreading the disease and continuing the rise in cases.
Encrypted Client Hello isn't even at Working Group Last Call yet, let alone actually published, so it won't make sense for most people to offer whatever the current draft state is.

Not using SNI isn't a more secure option. By definition you can't be doing standards compliant TLS 1.3 - which would be the most secure option - since sending SNI for host names is mandatory in TLS 1.3.

Also, in assuming that multiple hosts can instead be distinguished down in/ up in the HTTP layer you actually do make some things less secure. The TLS session binding doesn't apply to the application layer, so when you write Host: www.example.com in HTTP that does not bind your TLS session to the name www.example.com, whereas if you send SNI for www.example.com then the remote server needs to actively decide by policy if it's safe not to bind that. Are you actually going to get exploited this way? Probably not, but neither are bad guys anxious to find out somehow which of the services on Mark's server you wanted.
Ok, ok, hold the phone. Why does the psychonaut wiki maintain the rust bindings?
> The assertion that opposite-sex attraction is "normal" and that same-sex attraction is abnormal is not supported by science.

I don't know what "science" you are referencing but according to the NY times [0] 0.003% of marriage in the US are homosexual. To put that into context 0.006% of the population has 2 different colored eyes [1]. I would call someone with the same color in both eyes to be more "normal" than someone with different colors.

Now to the point. It may be true that there is no scientifically proven conversion therapy, but that is the case with many psychological characteristics. Many people have mental "things" (I won't call it a mental issue because it is not inherently bad, but you get my point) that science has no proven way to treat. But scientists continue to try to find a treatment. Of course there are limits to what they can try. Shocking genitalia is not allowed for any therapy and as such is not allowed for conversion therapy. But there are many other effective methods that psychologists use to help people who want to change.

TBH, I don't know why other people use Macs, but speaking in my own name, no, I'm not using it for its UI.

I use macOS because things usually just work, because it's a Unix, and because the available apps are good. I don't have a problem with the Windows 10 UI, I have a problem with everything else.

In fairness, switching from Linux to macOS because of the UI is an acceptable viewpoint.
Your entire comment history is pro-China comments. Are you just sitting by and waiting for a China-related article to pop up all day?

For example, the 30% fees almost surely breaks this law which was made to break up abusive rent seeking like credit card taxes and now app store taxes:

You don’t need good propaganda when no one is allowed to argue against it.

There is one view point in China, free reeducation for anyone that disagrees.

Locally we now have “fact” checking to helpfully ensure everyone only hears the one “truth”
And they claimed otherwise.
I don’t know if that’s fair to Lebron. The man does a ton of good off the court that I think he’s a good enough guy to not value money as much as you paint him for it. I mean why would he be so willing to give of his own wealth if he was so driven by money? What is more likely is that the NBA pressured its biggest star because they have ambitions in China bigger than Lebron.
AWS Certified Developer – Associate Exam Tips (2020)
What's happening with me is that I don't trust USA news sources on this topic. It is possible something is horrible is happening but there is so much propaganda people who might normally be concerned with this suspect it's a misdirection or scapegoating because of the US's catastrophic response to COVID19

It's the same reason a lot of right wing people who wouldn't be in favour of police brutalizing don't speak up - we become cynical and come to be believe we're being manipulated by selective reporting so when we should stand up for our values we don't because it looks like ceding ground to the enemy.

Now my account will probably shadowbanned because of emotional HN users but I don't think I'm mistaken about why there is apathy.
From what I know most Germans weren't aware of what was happening in the camps until after the war. They would have known there were people being taken away. Most genocidal governments don't publicize it as that. There is almost always a cover story. When there is a systematic removal of people from there homes, we mus assume the worst. Because a government with such widespread and systematic oppression, unrestrained, rarely restrains themselves.
I’ve never worked somewhere where the tech lead would make that call; product would make the call after the team or tech lead gave estimates on different trade offs.
As someone who is at the intersection of tech and arts one of the things I like about using git in projects is that it is very clear what is the latest official defintive final variant of a piece of data and you don't have to ask anybody to get it.

When I worked as a VFX freelancer I was amazed at the number of hours (=money) burned by marketing agencies who didn't manage to give me the definitive variant for a simple list of things they wanted. In one instance they gave me everything they had, including crude and unrecognisable filenames, hints about things that I should ignore via telephone etc. I had to make sense of it and compile a list which I sent them to approve. They ended up approving another list (!) which they themselves sent me two weeks prior and they only managed to correct this once I hinted at this.

Of course this is a example of saw qhow things should never be. This usually involves somebody getting sick and some uninformed person taking over etc. But what I learned on film sets is that you should choose the defaults of your communication culture in such a way, that it works under the absolute worst conditions (bad weather, hungry, stressed, confused, etc).

And I have seen so many organisations fail at precisely that. If you get I'll someone else should be able to take over without heading to an oracle. This is not a special function limited to a version control workflow, it is something that has to do with clear communication.

Using git can sometimes help avoiding the whole problem by making it obvious which file is the latest and which is a variant of it, the people using it will have to use clear communication as well (e.g. by writing good commit messages, choosing the "right" commit sizes, naming things the right way etc). So if you know how to use git, you just might value clear communications a little bit more than the average person.
You guessed what the content is from the title alone and then judged the book by your made-up content instead of actually finding out what the book might be about.

Now that is embarrassingly reductive gibberish.
> If there's no accesibility, the usual disclaimers apply, get legal advice before building anything professional with it.

I never heard about any "usual disclaimers", what exactly are you referring to?

AFAIK nobody is going to be suing developers for their software and the worst that can happen is people with accessibility needs simply not using your programs. The main issue is with employees with accessibility needs being unable to perform their work due to your software and having no other alternative - this is a case where their employer (not you, unless you are said employer) can be sued.

But beyond that i never heard anything about requiring legal advice before using any sort of UI framework for general professional use (TBH that sounds absurd).

I didn't find any actual support for QANON in the article linked. After skimming it, it was simply a series of quotes from interviews with Q supporters.

Wikipedia has become politically charged. If you know of any other sources covering breaking news about the CCP's abuses and intrigues, I would be happy to hear about them.

As mentioned elsewhere what’s happening here is not extermination like the Holocaust but it’s also worse than Japanese internment that everyone denounces as having been a very bad thing...

Yet, companies continue doing business and in some cases abetting the policy.

Some of these companies will be the IBMs and Fords as well as the Wolksvagens and Thiessens but it’s pernicious and people don’t notice. But in retrospect years hence it will be stark.
Just like you cannot guarantee safety of any Rust application with unsafe code blocks.
That article on efficiency comes to mind: currently businesses have some slack built in on their deliveries because they can only arrive so quickly.

If AI trucks are the norm, and all that slack is eliminated for efficiency sake because the "AI truck can always get here in 13 hours, no stopping", then that increased efficiency only raises the urgency that it arrives on time, thereby eliminating the time savings on delivery.

That's the most frustrating thing about these debates. The innovation momentum is clearly with renewables. There's been huge positive change over the last decade against huge resistance.

If that resistance disappeared - even if it was just lessened significantly because of policy - storage, local grid, state grid, national grid and even international grid solutions would all start taking huge leaps forward.

At this point nuclear is for technological nostalgics. There's no role for it, and no need for it. It's an overcomplicated, fragile, dirty, high risk technology which requires strict political, financial, and operational oversight. And when TCO is calculated - something nuke proponents seem to avoid - it isn't even particularly cheap.
The Chinese people are great. The country is awesome but the current government is tyrannical. We know that millions died under Mao yet he is still praised. That alone is enough for me to distrust the CCP.
The so-called block of unreal engine came along with a letter asking Epic to put fortnite back in compliance before it would happen.

There’s no indication that apple intended a purely retaliatory action, it was obviously pressure for Epic to come back into compliance with the App Store terms, which is what apple wants - for Epic to follow the same rules as everyone else. Apple makes money with Fortnite on the App Store and getting that 30% cut.

What is fun is when you are a foreigner and Japanese colleagues earnestly think that they should call you "Jack-san" because it comes first in English. It's like "Mister Jack"! For a native English speaker it would be used jokingly/friendly, but Japanese people do it seriously. This is not being helped by these television programs with foreign celebrities (living in Japan) exclusively called by their nickname.
Been there, done that. Qt has had a renderer for a reasonable subset of HTML4 and CSS2 since the Qt 3(?) days. If you see a Qt app and there's colored text or bold/italics inside a label or editor, that's all done using that flavor of HTML. It gets rendered through the standard QPainter engine.
