Looks great, now just have to find a counterpart to test it out with. I love the fact that it's native, props for that. I had no idea that people are putting Electron/browser apps out there, yuck.

How does signaling between clients work? Is this going to a server you control?

And what about encryption, is that enforced by WebRTC per se?

Lastly, are you routing calls through TURN servers if NAT tunneling with STUN/ICE fails, or always?

I just wish that SIP had taken off. Then we could just call each others email address. Kinda works with FaceTime, except it's Apple's garden.
>It seems to me that just the pardon power by itself is fundamentally incompatible with democracy and the rule of law.

It isn't, it's actually an integral part needed to make the entire thing work. The problem is when it isn't treated with the restraint due to the role it is meant to fulfill. The President is a short-cycle control mechanism. The legislature longer, and the judiciary the longest based on the sheer weight of precedent they need wade through.

Now, interestingly, and somewhat tangentially. There is a moral/traditional controversy over whether the President can legitimately abuse the Pardon power. There is a body of scholarship that hold that the Pardon is meant to be applied only when the President is acting to further the interests of the Nation.

To riff through some examples of how that plays out, (as mentioned elsewhere downthread): Civil War Confederate Amnesty, A-Okay. Carter and the draft-dodgers, a-okay, Clinton pardoning his brother on his last day in office? Absolutely not okay,as it wasn't furthering the interests of the country as a whole. Nor would Trump's pardoning necessarily qualify.

That isn't law though. That's ethos, and tradition.
If anything I learned from writing concurrent code before, and after doing it in Clojure - when talking about uncomplicated concurrency, you have to begin with immutability. Without immutability by default, that conversation is a non-starter.
In this instance wouldn't 'preceding poster' be more correct than 'last poster'? ;)
Ha! I love it!
I think that's just "easy"/"not easy" from a different baseline, not a comparison of C# vs Go. C# async/await is easy compared to something like callback-based asynchronous IO. Go concurrency is "not easy" compared to serial code.
On the one hand, yes, the code examples in that PR thread are kind of terrifying.

On the other, the ability to map mechanically between type names would be really useful, and is something I’ve previously wished for. It would, for example, enormously simplify type generation for Zapatos[1], which currently creates multiple long object mappings for this purpose, such as:

export type SelectableForTable<T extends Table> = {
accounts: accounts.Selectable;
appleTransactions: appleTransactions.Selectable;
authors: authors.Selectable;
books: books.Selectable;
emailAuthentication: emailAuthentication.Selectable;
employees: employees.Selectable;
identityTest: identityTest.Selectable;
stores: stores.Selectable;
tags: tags.Selectable;
tableInOtherSchema: tableInOtherSchema.Selectable;
}[T];

A lot of these restrictions were imposed by the Arab states in the very early days of Israel's "nationhood" and haven't been lifted since, so you don't have to expel people to do this.

Yes, of course. Processors are idle most of the time anyway, but single processor has more time to dissipate heat passively doing same amount of work (e.g. 2% work, 98% idle), while multiple processors, e.g. 4, will use same amount of energy 4x faster (0.5% work, 99.5% idle), so fan will kick in.

The original open source Ada83 compiler that grew into GNAT for Ada95 was written in setl.

The author of GNU setl has said he would release the source, but we're still waiting. There are binaries here:

https://setl.org/setl/bin/

(No NetBSD ones though, forcing us to use emulation)

Ada reminds me of spitbol, and setl can be written in spitbol. R K Dewar's spitbol, written in a portable assembly language called MINIMAL, has been open-sourced. There's a version of setl written in spitbol, too. Hopefully we will have the source for setl one day.

The author's dissertation on setl is a favourite of mine:

Well, if I try to imagine electric bluegrass, I get rockabilly.

My favorite cover of DSotM is the meh-titled ‘Jazz Side of the Moon’ by Yahel, Moreno, Hoenig and Blake. More specifically, it's the only worthy cover so far imo (though the bluegrass one is a quite strong contender, yeah). Surprisingly ‘JSotM’ isn't on YT in entirety—which is the greatly preferred mode of listening to it—but some snatches can be had at https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Yahel%2C+Moreno...

After seeing some fine synchronized pair dancing, of the jumpstyle-shuffle sort, it's quite conceivable for me.

> good OOP practice means you provide getter and setter methods to control access to that data

It is this superficial understanding of OOP that led to a somewhat bad reputation. At least in the form "getX" and "setX" it would be more of a data structure with mostly useless methods around the fields. If a programmer is able to set each and every field from the outside through a setter, there is no encapsulation at all. To have objects that deserve this name, a method should be more like a "transaction" on the object, so related fields should be changed in one shot.

Apart from that, I don't think it is useful to think in separate camps (OOP vs FP) here, since both approaches are complementary in many cases. It is not like you have to decide for the one or another theses days, since most common languages support OOP and FP style.

Maybe all of that says that healthcare can't be a market. Due to its very nature it's not suited to fit in a market model.

I don't understand why the USA is so adamant to see that forcing market solutions to every societal demand or problem might not be good a thing. To see that this ideology has had time enough to prove itself in the real world and has been found lacking. We need something different. Accepting that there are no absolutes and that perhaps some things shouldn't be market-based doesn't sound too revolutionary for a start...

Yes, that seems to be it.

Pike's quote from that interview:

(...) let me say that I'm not much of a fan of object-oriented design. I've seen some beautiful stuff done with OO, and I've even done some OO stuff myself, but it's just one way to approach a problem. For some problems, it's an ideal way; for others, it's not such a good fit.

Here's an analogy. If you want to make some physical artifact, you might decide to build it purely in wood because you like the way the grain of the wood adds to the beauty of the object. In fact many of the most beautiful things in the world are made of wood. But wood is not ideal for everything. No amount of beauty of the grain can make wood conduct electricity, or support a skyscraper, or absorb huge amounts of energy without breaking. Sometimes you need metal or plastic or synthetic materials; more often you need a wide range of materials to build something of lasting value. Don't let the fact that you love wood blind you to the problems wood has as a material, or to the possibilities offered by other materials.

The promoters of object-oriented design sometimes sound like master woodworkers waiting for the beauty of the physical block of wood to reveal itself before they begin to work. "Oh, look; if I turn the wood this way, the grain flows along the angle of the seat at just the right angle, see?" Great, nice chair. But will you notice the grain when you're sitting on it? And what about next time? Sometimes the thing that needs to be made is not hiding in any block of wood.
It's just a modern day siege.

At the time, I had only written a couple toys. I thought writing an Ada compiler was impossible. It's also impossible to write a C++ compiler, but I didn't realize that and did it anyway (several years later, after I'd written a C compiler). I thought that C++ was just adding member functions and a few keywords to C.

One thing I liked about Ada is that the authors of the language also wrote why they choose things the way they are, what was rejected, etc... Their is a document about this called "The Ada Rationale" available on the web:

http://www.ada-auth.org/standards/rationale12.html

I did contribute the HTML version of the Ada 1995 Rationale (first language revision) back in the day:

> It's not operator precedence—that's a separate issue

> It's even mnemonic—when the increment symbol goes before the thing being incremented, the increment happens first; else after—but even if not, it's a fairly basic language feature.

I think you missed the issue.

This is 100% about operator precedence, and has nothing to do with the decrement operator being in front of or behind the variable.

This expression:

*stack--

means either this:

(*stack)--

or this:

*(stack--)

depending on the operator precedence rules.

If this is the layout of memory:

~~~~~~
stack-1: | 52 |
stack: | 23 |
stack+1: | 19 |
~~~~~~

(* stack)-- evaluates to 22, while *(stack--) evaluates to 52.

Whenever I see such news and then look around at what they’ve been doing and continue to do (revealed sometimes in congressional hearings), it seems to me that the executive and the legislature are truly toothless in the face of these three-letter agencies.

I own the domain name for my last name, so that I have the email address [firstname]@[lastname].com. But when signing up for services I like to use my domain as a catchall so I can have unique email addresses for each service. Of course that means I receive all emails sent to anything at [lastname].com. Even though my last name is not that common, there’s apparently a ton of people with my last name who sign up for services using their first name @[lastname].com, even though they obviously don’t have access to that email address and haven’t for at least the 8 years that I’ve owned the domain name. I’ve never understood what compels a person to type in an email address for service if they don’t actually have access to that email. And yes, I see plenty of bank accounts and other important accounts as mentioned in the article. It’s mind-boggling. I also get plenty of personal email as well, intended for people with that first name and last name. In those cases I usually reply to tell them they have the wrong email address, and more than once someone has responded back again asking me if I could pass the message along to that person as if I’m supposed to know them.

Another thing is that the language backers made sure the ISO standard was available at no cost which was not obvious in the eighties so students could read it.

They are not toothless, they put them in those positions of power and do so gladly.

Remember that Snowden always said he was ready to come back to the U.S and be trialled, as long as the trial wouldn't be a secret trial. Those who created the laws for those secret trial where not the CIA or the NSA, it was politician.

The same way they made it so that it is forbidden to talk about the programs of certain agencies, even for law maker, meaning they approve programs without debate, with only a few senator knowing what the program is even about.

They created those laws, not the NSA, not the CIA, they could choose as easily to remove them. But it is too useful for them. The NSA can create a massive surveillance network that serves them without having to ever disclose it to the public.
I think this is less about wanting to protect criminals, and more about US sovereignty at all costs. And clearly upholding this sovereignty was one of Trumps election promises.

Under this philosophy (or doctrine, if you will) of sovereignty, US will never accept that the ICC - an entity that the US citizens have not explicitly delegated their sovereign power to - are trying to prosecute US nationals.

I got to use Ada for eight months in 1997, on a co-op at Rockwell-Collins in their General Aviation department. I learned and wrote a lot of Ada and I loved it. When I had to go back to school in the fall, I was no longer interested in writing C++ and it kind of bummed me out to have to use it again.

Please support Barrier[0] (FOSS) or, perhaps, just buy ShareMouse[1] or download Input Director[2] (free but closed source) rather than supporting Synergy.

I worked for Symless for 2 years and I can tell you first hand that the owner had little interest in fixing or improving the core functionality, the code for which has remained largely unchanged for 12-15 years.

Most of the input bugs in the software are a decade old, and unless a community patch comes along that can be merged, the owner only has interest in keeping it working on new OS versions, and tarting up the UI/UX to support Symless as a lifestyle business.

In the 2 years since I left I've seen exactly 3 bugfix releases, one of which broke TLS, and none of which seemed to contain any significant original work.

Supposedly Synergy 3 is in the works, after Synergy 2 (which I worked on) was scrapped, but this will almost certainly only be a proprietary Electron UI for the FOSS CLI instead of a Qt/QML UI for the FOSS CLI (as v2 was).

Major versions of Input Director (v2.0) and ShareMouse (v5.0) have been announced in the last few months, and it looks like significant work has taken place on both projects. Both of these products need better marketing.

Unfortunately none of the alternatives to Barrier/Synergy seem to want to support Linux, which remains its moat. The days for that are numbered due to Wayland though (Synergy uses the X11 XTest extension to inject input).
