You don't just see "some brands" in China. They're everywhere, on a completely different scale than Chinese brands in the US. In practice, American companies have a much larger presence in China than vice versa.

> they don’t own the subsidiary in china

This is a common misconception. Foreign companies can own their subsidiaries in most sectors of the Chinese economy.

> those brands can’t easily get the money they make out of china

China has capital flow controls. Foreign companies are still able to expatriate their profits. Apple takes in about $45 billion in revenue per year in China, and there must be a hefty profit associated with that revenue. Do you think Apple's profits get trapped in China?

I must say that I lost interest in all-cgi action sequences. Too smooth and cartoonish to feel real. I miss the roughness of the movies from the 90s. The archetype is something like Die Hard 3. From a cinematographic point of view, I fully support using real planes when possible.
The underlying deeper point is that you are assuming you, or your point of view is good, and perfect, and his is bad. And because he made a mistake he should have his house burned down (and should die).

What you are missing is that you also make mistakes as a human being, and when you have terrible consequences of that happen, it might be nice if people on some opposite side of a political spectrum don’t laugh at you about it and say you deserved it, but stay quiet because they also know they are fallible and make mistakes.

I am truly shocked you are ok with someone dying because of some mistaken political point of view. This tbh has no place in a supposedly civil place like HN (or America? Or the world??)
This is all extremely convenient. It’s not just “it wasn’t me” but even “it wasn’t me, somebody was hacked, the domain will become available again tomorrow”. Methinks the lady doth protest too much, this might well be godaddy’s SOP when caught red-handed.

Be as it may, the fact that GD is so casual about pwned accounts being an everyday occurrence should suggest people that it’s better to stay away from their lumbering carcass of a service.
In English quotes can be ambiguous, in this case they mean it is a direct quote from the parent comment (for emphasis, basically), not that it's under suspicion.
And I had been talking about administration members arrested, and your solution was to talk about something totally unrelated, so it’s particularly rich of you to make this accusation when this is literally what you just did.

Maybe we need some kind of page mark and index system?
Not much extra work I’d have thought. You might need to hardcode the Pis MAC address in your preferred DCHP server but the rest of the config should be equivalent.

I’ve already got isc-dhcpd running with PXE booting for x86 / AMD64 machines so might add some rules in for the Pis too.

Thanks for the heads up by the way. I hadn’t realised you could network boot Raspberry Pis.

I really liked her and her opinion was often something I learned from.

I do think there should be a mandatory retirement age in the Supreme Court.

I also think so for being president or governor.

I think that RBG was laser sharp till the end but I can think of many presidents and wannabes that are and were not.

I don’t want that to devolve into a political debate over specific candidates. It is just a fact that on average health and cognitive abilities and flexibility decline with age. An for one of the most difficult and stressful jobs in the world you need to try and ensure someone who is still on top of their game.

For POTUS we have a law stating the minimum age for the president. Since we already have that imposing a maximum age is reasonable and not ageist

Or I would support doing away with both and define a series of physical, cognitive tests as well as knowledge of the world and general knowledge. All of which would score a candidates suitability for the job. To be administered by a non partisan agency that is aggressively independent from new or old administrations. That would have weeded out some horrific presidents we have had. And will have.
The news is always [major car manufacturer] will have a huge range of EVs available in [3 to 5 years - pick one].

I mean, good luck to them, but I'm getting tired of all the years of announcements and then not much actually happening on the ground. This announcement shit has been going on for a decade or more.

The GM Bolt was pretty good, so credit for that, but they couldn't manufacture it to make a profit. And it was never available in my country (UK).

As another classic example, here's a VW press relase from 2013, when they declared they would lead the world on EVs by 2018.

September 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Volkswagen Group has set its sights on global market leadership in electric mobility. "We are starting at exactly the right time. We are electrifying all vehicle classes, and therefore have everything we need to make the Volkswagen Group the top automaker in all respects, including electric mobility, by 2018", Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn, CEO of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, said on the eve of the 65th International Motor Show in Frankfurt am Main.

I think Kia and Hyundai are the only people genuinely giving Tesla a run for their money at the mo. Last time I checked they were constrained by battery supplies, maybe they've fixed that now. Oh and the long range Renault Zoe is pretty good. And maybe the long range Leaf but its a bit pricey and skimps on battery cooling.

(edit: my unspoken assumption here is that only EVs with 200+ mile range are really worth talking about at this point)

I haven't used Ada in a commercial setting, unfortunately. I was never that involved with comp.lang.ada so I can't really comment there. However I never really got that impression from freenode #ada. Based on what I heard there, I'd describe it more like "if you don't know that you need it, you don't need it." I also got the impression comp.lang.ada tended to be a bit more um... conservative, if you will. I'm not so surprised to hear they were more inclined to have a commercial license.

Personally speaking with my own experiences and what I saw on #ada I'd be comfortable going without a commercial license. I've only ever seen problems with somewhat odd situations, and I'm pretty sure all of them produced a bug box (compiler error message) so at least I was aware of the situation. And Ada often has multiple reasonable ways of doing something, so even if the odd/clever thing causes an error it's unlikely to be a blocker. Mostly it means I would have to put up with usage that's a little more not to my taste.
Enthusiasts have been retro-fitting electric motors and batteries to cars for decades. A quick search on google or youtube will turn up many examples. Many of the necessary components are now available of the shelf.

>[sexual assault is] not the kind of thing you stay silent about for decades, having never stored any memorandums of the alleged crime

I'm not going to get into any specifics about Kavanaugh, but this is flatly untrue. Plenty of people stay silent about being assaulted. One reason is people like you who will call them liars whenever they come forward.

You are talking about direct democracy, which is but one kind of democracy. Representative democracy is still democracy.

Remember that Plato defined democracy in opposition to monarchy and aristocracy. Universal suffrage, freedom to form parties and to manifest against the government are (part of) what defines modern democracies. Even Switzerland only resorts to referendums in relatively rare cases.
I’ll ignore your condescending dribble but:

They've definitely earned some credit in my eyes for the async/await syntax. There was quite a bit of pushback for deviating from the norm there, but after using it for a few months other languages async/await just feels clunky to me now. Rust error handling is the best I've used but if there's a way to make it better then I'm up for it.
As someone who includes we pack in my build chain in order to use vue but doesn't truly understand it and has never used Cute, can you explain the advantages?
Lance Armstrong was a great athlete, period. It's unfortunate he had to use drugs but he had no choice. It was a price to pay to compete at the highest level.

I assume MTOW must mean the total take-off weight, not the cargo weight. In https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_747-400#Specifications it suggests about 125 tonnes, which - if I'm correct - means that quoting the MTOW is unhelpful.

Also looking at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_747-400#Retirement_and_... it disagrees with running costs you say

"The 747-400's leasing, resale and salvage value has dropped steeply because it is relatively expensive to operate. As most 747-400s are now more than 20 years old, airlines are beginning to replace them. Airlines using the 747-400 have been retiring the model, replacing it with more fuel efficient aircraft"

Why use Tesla components? There are now a wide range of components available for electric conversions.

And if you want to use Tesla bits, they are readily available at auto wreckers. And most have been thoroughly reverse-engineered by now.
WSL integration love wears off pretty quickly I find. There are so many rough edges and broken things.

While debugging a UDP server recently I discovered that any attempt to capture anything via UDP was scuppered entirely by the networking abstraction. Also the bastardised lack of services is problematic.

I see one of the two shepherds for the group is the author of https://github.com/yaahc/eyre, which is a fork of `anyhow` that adds features.

So I expect that's an indication of what's likely to come out of this.
great point, especially since now they try to sell the "compute module" variants which are aimed at commercial use, having to use a blackbox bootloader is wtf and I dont think many companies will accept that
Sure, i don’t doubt there’s work on the Dem side when it comes to abuse of power.

>in the last 4 years

I’m talking 30 years. The last 4 years are just end results of other forces.

Also - america has never produced an event like the trump presidency. Does that feature when we discuss abuse of power in the last 4 years?

I know of no Democrat action that is comparable.
TikTok takes down content it doesn't like on a regular basis. It's pretty well known if you use tiktok.
Not saying they shouldn't be able to do that, its part of how they got their For You page so popular.

Whether a website wants to display tiktok or not is the same thing - it'll do whatever it thinks will get more users.
I think there are good improvements to be had in the async side of the ecosystem, but I do agree that Rust error handling is the most delightful of any language I've regularly used.
In Firefox, the Vimium extension provides basic filtering functionality. No idea how well it would scale to 1600 tabs though.
So your approach of "not scraping bottom of the barrel" and not helping such companies is more ethical?
As far as I am concerned they can declare the Sun and Moon to be Russian as well.

Not having something as basic as this in the std is also a cause of painful incompatibilities and instabilities. Before anyhow became established, the ecosystem seemed to standardize on the failure crate, which was for all practical purposes basically the same thing. Making the switch wasn’t hard in my case, but also felt completely pointless.

Googlebot is a well known user-agent, but they do verify with impersonation. It's a heavy penalty (usually delisting) for serving them noticeably different content (there's of course leeway, because sites are dynamic)
All I can say is that the information surrounding the investigation, the case, the court proceedings, all of the evidence, is largely publicly available and instead of making guesses as to the legitimacy of the ostensible reasons for Ulbricht's capture, you can do what I've done and read up on all of it. There's nothing I can say or do to convince you if your attitude is such, and only direct knowledge of the case will satisfy you.
>while having pushed for expedition in 2016.

That's a weird way of saying "nominated a candidate via the regular process".
> If they acted that way, no one would really care who gets nominated to the supreme court.

How could this be done? Political issues are in front of the court every day and minute. This makes it immensely political. How could then those mere arbitrators be non-political?

It was always political. It will always be.

> It is because the supreme court has taken the habit of ruling on matters that should be left to the legislator and effectively to make new laws that it has become a bitter fight for nominations.

Uhm. You know this is also something that has been going on forever, especially in every "common law" system.

No it’s not recommending snake oil and telling them to do things properly instead I don’t. Care if that makes the security industry dry up, my only hope is that if it does the snake oil salespeople die with it.
But those bad actors are the result of what? Satisfaction with the system? They recruit who? Otherswho are satisfied?

I agree. Those violent events are complicated. But bad actors are the sole cause is an over-simplication.
I get the skepticism but VW have done what they said, a couple of years later than originally planned, not bad considering the significant challenges of dieselgate fallout and building a modular EV powertrain for multiple vehicle classes within an existing ICE infrastructure. Just yesterday on the motorway here I saw an advert for the new ID3 - it’s here.

Profitability is a related but separate issue. Getting to market at all is a significant step forwards. Time will tell how the financials look for these auto companies.
So recently I was watching through Marvel movies to get ready to finally watch the last two Avengers ones. I'm not crazy about them but it's ok fun. Part of the problem with them is what you say, the action is so much CGI it just turns meh.

But then I was watching Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and I was not very engaged but following it. At some point I caught myself having a elevated heart-beat and at the edge of my seat. This was the highway bridge scene.

I asked myself what is going on, I don't really care that much about the characters or plot, why am I so engaged?

Then I saw this episode of Corridor Crew's Stuntmen React[1], where one of the stunt performers mentioned almost every stunt in that scene was a practical stunt. And with that it all made sense.

Because like they just pointed out, you can only use this magical touchpad on a Mac running MacOS.

It's not like Apple benevolently gave this touchpad to the world, for our betterment and happiness, but for the singular, exclusive purpose of luring you into their ecosystem. But you don't benefit when they profit, you were the prize.

You should demand they give it away for free, because you should not give a shit about their profit because they (it) do not give a shit about your life or freedom or the economy of the social strata you live in. It's an alien machine that will eat you or it will fight you but it won't know the difference.

For me it's this, it's been proven I can get an OS that is open and free, doesn't mean I have to support and buy into some terrible multinational corporation whose goals I do not agree with, and that I get to have control over my own OS in a sense that is utterly freeing compared to MacOS or Windows. So why would I ever go backwards?
As someone who was on the fence about it, I feel exactly the same. The way the Rust maintainers and proponents of post-fix await helped create broader community consensus was impressive in itself too.
Possibly refuse to rule. In France they introduced a mechanism to throw the ball back to the parliament.
The point is that the parent takes an extremely tenuous connection between Republicans and slaveholders, while denying the much more overt connection between Democrats and slaveholders and segregationists.

There is this notion that the parties "flipped" sometime in the mid 1960s that's simply false. Republicans were from the inception the party of religious wackadoodles and capitalists. Democrats, at least since right before the civil war, were the party opposed to big business, banks, etc. The segregationists weren't just Democrats. They were New Dealers. They were New Dealers because the south was agrarian and at odds with big business (over tariffs) and banks (over monetary policy and debt). When Wallace broke off in 1968 to run on a segregationist ticket, he touted his pro-labor background. And as a result of that coalition, the New Deal and related programs were inextricably tied up with segregation: excluding most Black people from social security, creating redlining through the FHA, etc. See: https://jacobinmag.com/2019/06/rothstein-segregation-color-o... ("Walker’s second point overlooks that the New Deal did not merely concede to private bigotry but pursued independent racial policies that did much to create a segregated landscape that persists today.")

The South didn't really flip until Clinton. (Reagan won it, but he won everything.) Carter decisively won a bunch of southern counties that were 95% white. And ultimately it did so not because of the "southern strategy" but because southern states industrialized, and Republican ideas of low regulation and low taxes were great for attracting jobs and industries from northern states.
> I'm guessing most companies save costs and use AWS instead of GSuite for managing employees and more.

You are incorrect.

SES isn't a substitute for GSuite. It's a substitute for other mail delivery services like SendGrid or Mailgun -- a tool for programmatically sending emails, typically to customers.
I'm not a fan either. But I recently read Jonah Berger's "Invisible Influence." Interesting stuff.
I hope that std::prelude::Result becomes anyhow::Result, including the default generic argument (i.e. Result<u32> just works, no need to write Result<u32, UnnecessarilySpecificErrorType> unless you have a reason to). That would encourage examples and simple scripts to use Results and ? instead of calling unwrap and panicking. Not only would this teach better practices earlier, it would also address many of the complaints that Rust’s error handling is harder than exceptions in common usecases.
When I worked in the VFX industry we would come up against those sorts of situations all the time. For most clients it was never an issue of cost and more about the lead up time involved. For example, a lot of time goes into research and ensuring you get good reference photography and physical measurements. For something like a plane you would need to track down the exact make/model and send out a survey team for a few days to a week. Obviously this doesn't include the work done to determine how the plane would disintegrate and what the resulting explosions would look like. Someone in the art department would probably spend a week or more compiling plane crash reference.

Sure, there are outfits that won't go to that amount of trouble but the end result is almost always junk.
Giving de facto control of US to Putin. Asking for Putin to join the G7 several times before and after it was clear that he put bounties on American soldiers. Calling Americans soldiers losers and suckers. Pardoning war criminals. Telling voters to commit election fraud by voting twice. And, last but not least, killing more than 200k Americans even though he knew perfectly of coronavirus risks.
Is there a concise statement of the differences (aside from syntax) between failure and anyhow? Like any philosophical difference?

I've been using failure and would like to know if I should switch.
A solution that seems to work for me is keep notes instead. If I am interested in something I stick a link and some brief notes in a markdown document and make sure to include as many descriptive words as possible. That way I can grep my notes folder later to look for the note I made.

For home I keep a separate file per day. For work I have a monolithic "general_notes.md" which I add stuff to sequentially. Generally work notes need to be found quickly, so one file makes sense. For home I am not so time pressured, so grepping through multiple files is an acceptable solution.
Memex (https://github.com/WorldBrain/Memex/) provides for searching your history and bookmarks. That might help alleviate the need to maintain sets of tabs.

The Vimium extension for Firefox also happens to provide basic filtering of open tabs, although I've never tried it with anywhere near 1600. YMMV.

Other commenters have already mentioned Tree Style Tabs and similar extensions which can aid in grouping and managing things efficiently.

> URLs bit rot and their contents change. If you have a browser session that's old enough, the RAM contents are a saving grace.

This is a serious problem in my experience. To that end, Zotero is an invaluable research tool with browser extensions for (among other things) taking a snapshot of an open webpage. Its library exists externally to your browser though which might add friction to your workflow.
And in the 80s, “true geeks” would type assembly language programs into their computers from magazines. In the early 90s we would use Gopher servers to get information and post to Usenet. Time marches on.

I don’t miss ripping MP3’s, converting file formats and what the heck is “patching cracked software”? I think I qualify as a true geek, and I’ve never heard of that.

If your claim is supported by that article you linked down below, it seems like a big stretch to refer to Democrats as a unified whole ("believe Democrats ... after they") when you're referring to three people, two of whom were engaged in ultimately failed campaigns for the presidency.

It might be more constructive to speak with precision about a claim of such import.
