I can attest to that, the general emotion in my part of Europe was - well that's horrible, just like all the atrocities US is doing all around the world and that it was just a matter of time that such a thing would happen.

It was clear, I mean crystal clear even to US commentators on places like CNN on that very day that this will be used as carte blanche for government to instill control, surveillance and fear among US general population, and basically get away with anything because 'terrorists'. Well, they for sure were right.

Life of Manhattan-based bureaucrat is not worth to me more than some poor civilian blown to pieces on some wedding or tending his field half around the world. You know, equality of human beings and stuff. 3000 means nothing compared to millions, in fact tens of millions if we keep counting.

I think of “trajectory planning” as: you have a known target position and you have to figure out how to get there. That’s not hard with a 3dof manipulator.

But figuring out where to place the feet, which I consider a perception problem, is very hard. But I think that’s what you’re talking about and I just use different terminology. That’s why I was confused. Sorry if I came off wrong.

I don't think it's unreasonable to give Assange 50 weeks for skipping bail. He was given every opportunity, he pleaded his case right up to the highest court in the land, and once he didn't get what he wanted? He decided he could opt-out of the justice system. It's not like he surrender himself either, he got turfed out of the Ecuadorian embassy. I don't think I could find a better example of where someone should face the absolute maximum penalty for skipping bail. We will never know the merits of the rape cases because of his actions. As for holding him solitary confinement I could definitely understand how a prison warden would decide to do that with a high profile prisoner such as Assange. It's also worth noting that he's not actually in solitary confinement now.

As for the rumours and claims about seeing his lawyers, I don't have a strong view on it, since the claims seem quite weird and unsubstantiated. I've looked and I can't find any actual reliable reporting on whether he is being denied real representation and I find that suspicious. It's not like there's no journalists who are sympathetic to Assange. I understand it's obviously in the interests of the defence to delay and claim they don't have enough time and information, but that doesn't necessarily make it some human rights issue, it could simply be that that is a strategy they're using to delay the decision. It's clear the judge is not convinced that Assange has been denied proper representation, and if he is, why aren't there any articles in any of our press saying "Here are the 10 times Assange's laywers got turned away". Do you understand where I'm coming from here. It sort of works for Assange to claim that the perfectly ordinary restrictions on visitation are some massive overbearing conspiracy to deprive him of liberty, it doesn't necessarily make it true.

Edit: https://www.sentencingcouncil.org.uk/offences/magistrates-co... - here are the sentencing guidelines, Assange could not have been sentenced to anything less than 6 weeks. At which point he would've been remanded for the extradition anyway.

> My guess - 50%+ of even CAR buyers want to have a connection to their brand loyal assistant.

For me it's that I don't want to be beholden to the car manufacturers schedule of updates or choice of features. The only thing that really dated on my previous car and tempted me to look at buying a new one was things like lack of bluetooth audio and no big screen for maps.

As an example, it tends to cost extra (at least it did historically) for maps in cars, I've also heard of having to pay annual fees for updates to those maps and even when the maps are "upto date", their information is still not as good as say Google Maps on your phone. So you land up with these expensive luxury cars, with huge infotainment screens, and then people still using a smart phone with its little screen on the side with its maps app simply because it's substantially more usable than what the car provides.

Additionally, each car manafacturer has their own version of media players and capabilities all with varying amount of features. They all insist on figuratively re-inventing the wheel, and landing up with one which is still way worse than my rapidly evolving phone and its apps.

Car infotainment systems these days should be little more than a largely dumb interface to my smart phone so that for the 10-20 years I own the car, I get regular updates on its utility as my smart phone and its apps improve.

My father's office in the UK was bombed by the IRA, who were predominantly backed by US "patriots".

I wouldn't wish that on anyone, but there was a bit of schadenfreude along with the horror and sympathy.
I wrote an FAQ about 20 years ago. I did it because it was fun, of course. I loved the game and wanted the secrets that I knew that nobody else knew to be published somewhere.

I remember one of the other players created a game guide for the game that was published and made a couple million off it. So there's that too.
Well, fewer than what? I'd wager the median person reads 0 (or perhaps 1) books per year, where a book means something with more than 100 pages and at least 90% of those pages filled with text and read means read at least 90% of the words printed. To most people reading is like exercising, dieting, studying etc. They want to want to do it but don't want to do it.

You must live in a bubble if you think normal people read too many books.
Honestly, I just assumed it was someone using Azure's basic services without being ready for a massive traffic spike. I was a bit miffed but understanding. But Microsoft not being able to scale on their own cloud service seems like a massive failure.
Worth noting that [in the US] a large part of the previous generation ended up living in cheaper suburbs because of flight from urban areas, which also made those urban areas cheaper.
Thanks. I definitely don’t want to buy any more leather. Vegans might think I am a hypocrite but non vegans (so most people) probably wouldn’t ever notice that my shoes are non vegan.
It's possible the problem isn't speculation, but the rate of return on capital vs the rate of return on labor.

If capital dominates, you're going to run into scenarios where it's fundamentally impossible to ever afford scarce goods that generate returns, because someone who started with more capital will now have an even larger delta with you, and is therefore able to outbid you.
Mostly Apple. Maybe because it is huge, maybe because they have some weird feelings toward Apple company. I think your observation is very true
I’ve often wondered if an opinionated solution — in the Rails sense — would sell to SMEs in healthcare. Ask any physician group in the US what their pain point is and it’s probably reimbursement. They have to deal with finicky rules from different insurance providers, and usually employ a couple people dedicated to getting reimbursed. They also have to wait long periods of time for those reimbursements.

A company that could promise to improve that situation by standardizing how the practice operates and optimizing reimbursement could have a great sales value. You could also standardize data sharing/HIPAA practice.

You still have to sell it to buyers, one by one.

I think you cannot do that on the net anyway. You may be able to restrict the audience, but do that too aggressive and people share the video even more on other channels. It also just creates an infrastructure for censorship.

All problems are fractal in nature, they require a problem-scope in order to be solvable.

In this case, it would be "how fast is fast enough?", which would be fast enough that the human operating the application doesen't lose focus.

For most pages I've viewed with my 150€ phone, submit->time to interactive is between 1-3 seconds for the first non-cached load, and much faster for when revisiting. This is sufficient worst-case for any conceivable tasks performed on web-apps today.

I agree that minimalism is frequently relatively expensive.

It's just that, well, the people who buy apartments on Sylt[1] probably think they're not elite, because they think the people who buy villas on Malle are the elite. Eyeballing the graph on p.22 of https://www.bundesbank.de/resource/blob/796280/5eaebf3d73e4f... it appears that the scenario we're considering for elitism above is affordable by at least 60% of german households.

Here's a Tulio example. Tulip also provides source to source derivatives. Both KA and Tulio work in the CPU with the same code

using Tullio, OffsetArrays

# A convolution with cyclic indices
mat = zeros(10,10,1); mat[2,2] = 101; mat[10,10] = 1;
@tullio kern[i,j] := 1/(1+i^2+j^2) (i in -3:3, j in -3:3)

@tullio out[x,y,c] := begin
xi = mod(x+i, axes(mat,1)) # xi = ... means that it won't be summed,
yj = mod(y+j, axes(mat,2))
@inbounds trunc(Int, mat[xi, yj, c] * kern[i,j]) # and disables automatic @inbounds,
end (x in 1:10, y in 1:10) # and prevents range of x from being inferred.

It's mostly just math!

That's the basic offering of Microsoft's Power Platform, except for the repl part. Scripting is done graphically through Flow, the backend database is CDS, and reporting is through PowerBI.

As a developer, I think the whole thing is so convoluted and asinine it should curl up and die in a fire. It will spawn an entirely new area of bespoke, non-maintainable yet critical business tooling.

I remember when I was a kid (first grade) they would send home the text books and a bunch of worksheets if you were out of school, or for summer work. I would much rather have my kid reading the books and practicing writing via the worksheets.

I guess I'm biased, but I hate how reliance on computers is being ingrained at such a young age. Especially if it's just being used for something like Google slides, which to me seems like a poor replacement medium for paper worksheets.

My views are a lot more nuanced than the straw man you put together here. I don't disagree with some of the things you've said. I was simply declaiming the false equivalency between incarceration of convicted criminals and the persecution of a purple based ENTIRELY on ethnicity. I get the the justice system is tilted in a similar way. It's a combination of personal and systemic racism. But matching people into concentration camps on trains is qualitatively different, and we can't lose sight of that.

Rust doesn't have the "static in header" problem, but it does have the "always inline" and "macros" problem.

The "always inline" problem is smaller in Rust, because it does Thin LTO by default, compiles partially to bit-code, that can be partially inlined if necessary, etc. So essentially the Rust toolchain is a bit better at inlining when its profitable than C and C++ toolchains "by default" (you can tune C and C++ toolchains like clang to be as good as Rust).

In C and C++, macros are generally frowned upon, not because of this compile-time issues, but rather because they are dangerous, tricky, non-hygienic, powerful usage requires complex patterns, their interaction with header files and PCHs, etc.

Rust macros are awesome, super useful, widely used, etc. So people end up using them a lot, and this is by design, not a flaw of the language. This ends up resulting in a lot of duplicated code being expanded, and that leads to the problem that you mention, but much worse, because there are just many more macros in Rust.

This kind of applies to templates / traits as well. There are many C++ that don't write templates, but all Rust programmers use generics because they are great. Rust can pre-compile generics, so the cost of this is not as bad as for C++ where the same generic might be instantiated by multiple TUs. But still, just by the fact that they are more widely used, the size of the problem grows.
I like protonmail a lot, and I'm a happy paying customer. But, I'm a bit sad they're rolling this out instead of improving their mail product. I don't want a google drive replacement. I suspect other users probably do.

But, I don't think people should generally be storing files in the cloud. And, I with Protonmail were finally finishing support for FIDO2 authentication rather than rolling out a cloud storage solution.
Well, those religious prejudices and injustices aren't sacred anymore, but if you have a public reputation to loose, or don't want to get burned as a company, you should avoid being associated with stuff like gender- or racial-inequality.

(as long as you aren't targeting the Q-Anon or KKK crowd)

So it seems the definition of sacred is simply changing. (luckily)

At the time around '69 it maybe was like nothing was sacred anymore, and everything was being questioned, but i don't think you can apply this anymore.

Exactly this.

I pretty happily try out subscription apps on iOS (which I rarely to never do online). Why? It's darn easy to cancel. I get a reminder in advance even. This contrasts in my experience with nearly EVERY other auto-billing approach out there. The time I sometimes spend calling people to cancel stuff (that I could sign up for online) is ridiculous.

Another nice touch that builds trust. I once deleted an app and iOS reminded me to cancel the subscription if I wasn't going to reinstall! I mean, every other store will keep the auto-bill going forever.

This feels like the right compromise. Allow for non-iOS iPhones similar to booting into windows on a MacBook.

How to deal with the warranty is the tricky part. Custom software can degrade the hardware. It seems fair that Apple should provide easier access to dev tools for bare-metal iPhone programming and jailbreaking but is no longer liable for the device.
I work for a vendor of an operating system that has PSE54 certified conformance to the latest POSIX 1003.1 2018 Edition Specification. Our customers demand this certification as part of their ISO 26262 and IEC 61508 safety story.

POSIX certification is real and current and there are certified conformant systems out there.

Do note that the last certified Unix specification was UNIX V7. Unix is not POSIX. POSIX is not Unix.
I think Chromium does get shipped as a normal executable, it's only Chrome which gets released as DMG.
no. php is perfect as it is and always was. php got bad name because it was the first language most programmers started with..before javascript became the language of the web browser. so with larger user base you will get more bad programmers, hence the language will get bashed more. since php is not stirngly typed you can end up with really bacode, but it will work so the bad programmer syndrome is constantly fueled by bad code written by bad programmers :D .... to this day it is the most used and most performant interpreted languge and it is still de facto the languge of the web. in other words, php became a victim of its own success. remember before type script how people hated javascript, and still do to this day? well, php is not typed language so amateurs that cannot write a good code if their life would depend on it and the ivory tower armchair java/c#/.. warriors will be always bashing it. but php itself is great. absolutely nothing wrong with it. if you don't like it, don't use it. the language is not the problem, the people are, as usual. there is plenty of alternatives so instead of complaining, people should just stfu and move on.

personally i have moved to GO some years ago after over a decade with php. not because i had enough of it. no, i love php. but there is no money in web development anymore. so i moved to a compiled languge and do purely backend and less web/front oriented stuff, which i always preferred anyway.

though before i left php i remember that i was getting interested in parallel computing and Go had goriutines which served me well. php was getting the reactphp, swoole and other projects at that time but i decided to change the direction so even if it would work for me at that time, now i do more lower level stuff that php would not be suitable for anymore anyway.
Also the definition of journalist is very dodgy these days.

Craig Murray has been applying to the NUJ (National Union of Journalists) to become a "registered" journalist. They're sitting on his application, clearly because allowing him into the club will upset powerful people. [0]

The Assange trial has seen a definition of journalist that only includes employees of large media corporations. This is clearly wrong.

If we're going to extend special protection to journalists, we need a definition of "journalist" that doesn't mean "someone who will not need those protections because they're not going to do things that will upset the establishment".
