I don't think that quite holds up. Sure, lots of people want to do it, but lots of people want to be professional athletes or surgeons or [insert prestigious job here] as well. Similarly, this kind of work is extremely demanding, and very critical - the consequences of incompetent traffic controllers would be disastrous - so there's still a low supply of people who actually are a right fit for the job. In a sane job market that should still give these traffic controllers some bargaining power.

Then again, I guess braythwayt's comment[0] is real-world proof that we're not really dealing with a sane job market, so I'm clearly missing something crucial in my line of thought here.

Mozilla and Apple have publicly announced that they will not implement the Bluetooth and Battery APIs [1][2], which makes them definitely Chrome proprietary APIs.

These kind of proprietary APIs are exactly what Microsoft did 10-20 years ago as part of their "embrace, extend and exterminate" process. They extended IE with their proprietary APIs (such as HTML+TIME), which other browsers never implemented.

Bluetooth, Battery and many other Chrome APIs are just Google's and Microsoft's new attempt to "embrace, extend and exterminate" other browsers.

I haven’t reviewed this case, but essentially it sounds like she needs to be charged as an accomplice in the driver’s crime. (Driving 118 mph drunk is def a big crime.)

But if the act was not pre-meditated, or somehow the result of a probable conspiracy the owner was a part of, the vehicle shouldn’t be seized.

The wrongness of this has nothing to do with this case, though. It is that there is any direct financial reward whatsoever to LE for civil seizures.

Incentive to seize property must be untethered from those whose job is to support order and reduce conflict.

Notes on depression, loneliness, judgment and trust
Reproducibility is a subtle but important part of all parts of a build, including tests.

What happens, in my own experience, is that randomized data in tests has a few unplanned downsides.

First, it makes you think your testing all possible values (since they all might be used, right?). But you aren't- you'll never run the test enough to see all values. And what you really should do is think for a few minutes about the edge cases and ranges and write multiple tests covering each edge.

The second downside I saw was "oh the tests failed so I just reran it and now it passes". This is especially difficult as your team brings in new people, less experienced people. Everyone is in a rush and yeah, that test fails like 1 in 30 of its runs but we don't have time to look into that right now. So you end up with this frustrating build that lets you continue when you have bugs, but sometimes fails.

Your unit tests are a spec. They specify your expectations of the system under test. If you use random data, then the only way you can make your spec accurate is to reimplement the program in your unit tests, also matching the spec. But this will incredibly tightly couple your code and your test, as changing one implementation will require you to change the other. Tests shouldn't be like that, imho.
If it were so easy, there would be already specified a subset of C without undefined behavior and you could be able to automatically check your code against it.

Windows had (has?) a defrag tool for this purpose. With SSDs, it's not an issue.
I've been working this way for a while, but with minimal code niceness:

1. There is an HTML file that just renders with markdown based on the hash. I know hash isn't ideal, but it was easy, and it's all static.

2. Edit buttons on rendered pages link back to the github editor.

3. There is a minimal JSON config file pages grab, which allow me to configure stuff I want for use on e.g. localhost versus github.

It works very well. I ain't sharing my code here, and you don't want it. It's about an hour's worth of hacking to rebuild yourself and working. It'd probably be another few hours before I had something worth sharing.

It works really well, and more importantly, scales pretty well. It works seamlessly as a wiki. git workflows become nice if things go from one person to many.
> Someone used a car to commit a crime, so the state seized the car.

Even if you want to argue that the punishment of having your car seized fits the crime of DWI, there's no due process here. Taking the car and then asking a judge to get it back is "guilty until proven innocent".
Marxism rewards the vicious and punishes the virtuous.

It's not in the interest of virtuous people to have Marxism. It's in their interest to have freedom, which implies capitalism.
This. If you allow capitalism to absorb the government itself, what you get is for-profit persecution. If crime generates income, be it through asset forfeiture, private prisons or a law system where you can win by just making the case big enough the other side can't pay defending the case, you align the incentives towards finding crime where there is none.

It's no surprise the US has the highest prison population per capita in all the developed world and nobody trusts cops.

The US is an interesting experiment in what you get if you try to run a government on market forces, but I prefer to live in a country where police don't have to earn their own income, but are civil servants, tenured for life.

That may lead to inefficiencies, fine, but at least the incentives are aligned towards helping out and preventing crime instead of generating more of it. I haven't had a single instance I can remember where I was ever scared by police.

> A centralized solution from a trusted third party has all of the benefits of blockchain with just about none of the downsides.

So why hasn't it happened yet?

Also, who in their right mind would rely so much on a "trusted third party" to coordinate global supply chains?

What would be cost to have an organization that is able to maintain this level of trust?

What about the politics of it? Even if the entity were to be trusted, how can we be sure that there would be no countries forcing their political/economical might to bend this entity to do what they want? As an example, after the global pandemic, do you trust WHO more or less? Do you still believe that they are completely independent?

You are never going to hear from me that blockchain is a perfect solution for all problems, but a "centralized solution with a trusted third-party" is quite a spherical cow in comparison.

Pyramid Technology Corporation 90x RISC-based minicomputer ran OSx, which supported BSD and System V at the same time in parallel universes, and had patented "conditional symbolic links" to support dynamically switching between the two by changing an environment variable.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_link#Variable_symboli...

>Pyramid Technology's OSx Operating System implemented conditional symbolic links which pointed to different locations depending on which universe a program was running in. The universes supported were AT&T's SysV.3 and the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD 4.3). For example: if the ps command was run in the att universe, then the symbolic link for the directory /bin would point to /.attbin and the program /.attbin/ps would be executed. Whereas if the ps command was run in the ucb universe, then /bin would point to /.ucbbin and /.ucbbin/ps would be executed. Similar Conditional Symbolic Links were also created for other directories such as /lib, /usr/lib, /usr/include.

I don't think I've ever seen this on any third party search tools for HN. If it's an actual feature it is highly under documented. The filtering that HN does is on all comments / stories (by post title) but you don't get to filter down by what a user has upvoted since that data is private to the user, only favorited data is public.

I don't think this is a feature creep, I think it's useful. Otherwise I'm going to have to code something to scrape through HN for me and provide that additional context, and even then I still would be missing a way to filter down on HN comment data vs my own local db of upvoted materials.

What you are observing is the same thing that got Microsoft in anti-trust trouble back in the days, but which is now being done web-scale instead of desktop-scale by Google.

Also, Google is/was bundling Chrome as a drive-by installation with lots of other popular downloads, so less competent users got their (other) browsers replaced by Chrome, possibly without knowing.

On that note github needs to merge wiki has a feature rather than a tack on. http://github.com/yearoflinux/DesktopInfinity/wiki should actually be a folder rather than a separate repo.

I can't tell if you want generics or not? I've been thinking about the topic for a while and sort of think Go doesn't need em. It's less a technical reason but more a cultural reason. The language shipped without them as a feature. So why deprecate that feature and make lite-version of Java/C#.
By and large, you can just upgrade the kernel and nothing will break. It's one of the biggest things kernel developers worry over, in fact.
