According to a commenter above, the norwegian station of Troll[0] is on UCT in summer time but UTC+2 in winter time, so its "day" can have 22~26h.

Then there's the possibility of timezones straight moving around which can make entire days replay or disappear e.g. in Samoa there is no 2011-12-30, the day literally doesn't exist, Samoa local calendar goes straight 2011-12-29 to 2011-12-31, because at midnight the country switched from UTC-11:00 to UTC+13:00.

No, it's about being able to do multi-line statements.

But you dont always need them, so sometimes leaving them off works, but sometimes nothing happens because it's waiting for the semi-colon.
It says they're outsourcing to this Manx company. The British regulations and so on are presumably similar to American ones, but it does mean there's probably less communication back to Boeing of any relevant feedback.

The goals of this project seem very similar to those of Godot.

Diversity in open source is great, but only when projects bring new innovations to the table. I'm hoping for Godot to become the Blender of game development, and I'm not sure this project will help that.

Technically, what they've achieved here is fantastic, but I wonder if all the work was worth it just to replicate Godot's core features? Am I missing something here? What sets this engine apart?
Maybe, but at the same time it seems like the best option for general language support in emacs.

A lot of languages have working lsp implementations (at least according to https://langserver.org/) and, assuming it will stick around, this means that emacs can get all of these nice features "for free" by having an lsp implementation. This is a much safer bet than just assuming that somebody will provide and maintain emacs plugins for <insert language x here> that provide everything that lsp would.

Sounds like a tooling problem, not a language problem.

If editors screw up whitespace "all the time" it's only because whitespace is non-significant in many programming languages. Maybe we need better Python-focused editors that will automatically strip out irrelevant curly braces.
sorry i'm gonna sound like i'm making an argument for authority but why do man pages have to appeal to the "average" person anyways?
complex tasks require complex explanations to avoid weird hangups/errors.

Or à á é è í ì ò ó ù ú in pretty much anywhere in Europe other than the England (and also places like Greece, Serbia and Bulgaria which have a full alphabet of their own to handle in isalnum :)).

Musl assumes your locale is either C or UTF-8, glibc doesn't. Sure almost everything is UTF-8 these days and has been in the last 15 years, but claiming that the glibc code makes no sense is utterly condescending and I expected ddevault to know better than that.

I also wouldn't be surprised if those countries that have a non-Latin alphabet were still using single byte character encodings since UTF-8 would double the size of their text.
Hi, I just launched Rentify

Rentify is aimed at owners of small rental stores who currently take bookings via phone/email only but want to have a proper online store with online payments, etc. It provides card payments through Stripe and full inventory and schedule management.

Thanks for looking,

Oh thank you for the link, I've had to discard emacs when I've switched to sway/wayland and I can't wait finally having emacs available for my muscle memory. Magit changed my life
I try to but sometimes I don't. say I was carrying a bunch of stuff in and couldn't get to the normal place I keep them, or I had taken them back to my desk to get to the yubikey or I needed the key to open my bicycles battery compartment, etc.

Or sometimes I just forget to take them out of my pocket.
Making it easier to set colors sounds fine to me.

It probably won't make it attractive to many more people (personally I didn't find inverting the colors hard...) but at least it doesn't gut what makes emacs useful and interesting in the first place.

... which isn't something you can say about every improvement people suggest. :)
As a single developer or a team working in the same organization you can ignore this property, however in a distributed VCS it is pretty much a defining and essential feature.

Guaranteeing that the history is the same is paramount to ensure that the same operation on two repositories which are _supposed_ to be identical will yield the same results.

This is what allows you to merge back history from a forked repository over which you have no control with confidence.

You don't necessarily need that property, true. You also don't necessarily need to make it mandatory. However if you want to play in the distributed VCS game, you'd better have something equivalent that can give you the same guarantee.

But what the duck? How does that make sense for Chinese?

This is bullshit. Great, now isalnum returns true for ä if I'm using de_DE.latin1 or whatever, but is still nonsense for any non-western language. And the price we pay for that is a messed up pile of garbage that nobody understands and can segfault.

One of the claims I’ve read about is that there’s fear that Beijing could use TikTok to “brainwash kids”, which I thought was a crazy thought...until I read about how the FDA had to issue a warning begging kids not to do the “Benadryl challenge” they saw on TikTok because it was sending them to the ER.

It's not illegal to tarnish and smear the diplomacy of the United States. If it's legal to release the documents, then there is certainly no requirement that documents must be release about other countries. So the only question is whether it is legal to release these specific documents. He could even be biased (which of course he is since everyone is), and that still wouldn't matter.

There is no physical limitation that prevents us from leaving Sol system. It is actually quite easy compared to other technical problems. We have atomic power that can be source of energy for thousands of years and we have technology to build sustainable ecosystem and push it in a direction of another star (albeit very slowly). And we are also able to image other planets very precisely to something like kilometers per pixel through gravitational lensing.

It is just that humanity is not very good at consensus to even not suffocate in our own home.
My correction then but of course as some have said here, $160k/yr for heading the modification of an existing browser and stealing donations of those who don't claim them is considered overpaid.

Yes it is possible if you realize that you aren't supposed to inform everyone present of the whole technical detail of what you did or are facing, and that issues are not resolved in the standup.

The idea is to make the connections needed with the people present, to help with the issue after standup (Bob is having issues with authentication on API x, and Sally says she might know how to help. They will take this up after the meeting).

Status updates should also not go into detail. You might be proud of your very cool efficient implementation for a sorting problem, but get your ego stroked someplace else please (PR's are a good place for that).

Most important of all; empower every team member to shut down this kind of time wasting for the rest of the team, by simply saying that this kind of talk should be taken up after the meeting.

Me and my team and a financial institution do this, and it does not matter who is in the meeting (PO's, executive directors etc).
I honestly hope the killginx will show us some cool ideas.

This is not strictly 'Bypassing' MDM.

Sure you get a device that you can flash/root/reinstall - but will it be authenticated/allow login by Google/Your company?

> Here our objective was not to break the crypto or recover the data, it was to remove any MDM application and remove all restrictions on the device.

Yes you can remove - resell device. But MDM is not designed to prevent reinstall/selling/whatever.

Beyond Corp principles:

A particular network connection must not determine which services a user can access.
Access to services is granted based on what we know about a user and the device.
All access to services must be authenticated, authorized and encrypted.

No but it is rather clear that some overseas aviation regulatory authorities don't do proper certification of their pilots.
> You've just explained that the costs will be lower, not that the quality will be lower.

I've explained that there are no incentives for the quality being the same, only for costs to be lower. Which has essentially always resulted in quality dropping. Including in Boeing's own recent history.

> It's possible costs will be lower due to better efficiency and hiring in different markets, not due to worse pilots.

It's also possible that you start shooting solid gold out your ass.

> Hiring me in the UK is cheaper than hiring someone else in Silicon Valley. I don't think that necessarily means I'm any worse a programmer, does it?

If the goal is solely to hire a cheaper developer, it's not you they'll be going to.

I think that the article brings up good points about how to make the default install of emacs better for new users.

On the other hand there are many alternative versions of emacs that solve this problem like Aquamacs.

Maybe instead of changing the core version instead the FSF could make or suggest an emacs for beginners .
Yes, obviously - the problem is that there is no reason whatsoever to do it at the speeds that are currently thought to be physically possible.
Gutenberg shipped way too soon. It has been a textbook case of how not to launch a product. Solid idea...horrendous execution. Mullenweg owes the WP community a massive apology. He especially owes the #a11y Community an apology. Hint: In either case don't hold your breath.

But more importantly, it should not be in core. Full stop. Once WP became REST-driven the push should have been to lighten core. That is to decouple as muxh as possible. Core is that _core_. Then you configure your needs from there. Core should be the basics, as light and as lean as possible.

But instead, more and more unnecessary bloat. More and more features with less and less benefit.

Yes, I'm looking at CraftCMS and others as well. WP has jumped the shark. It's not going away. But I'm tired of having to shower after everytime I work with it.
That's true for some reasonable definitions of "privilege" but not others.

Originally-originally, "privilege" meant being subject to some special dispensation that e.g. exempted you from laws that applied to everyone else. (Latin: "private law".) The term then broadened to apply to other sorts of advantages held by individuals and groups, and indeed earlier uses of it are concerned only with unusual advantages enjoyed by (say) the upper classes. But these days it's commonly used to mean any substantial unearned advantage that people have as a result of belonging to one group rather than another.

And by that definition, a kind of privilege absolutely can be widely distributed.

For instance, it is widely and plausibly held that being male confers substantial advantages in life -- that people take men more seriously, are more inclined to promote men to senior positions, tend to give credit to men rather than women for projects in which both are involved, etc.

(In, let's say, Western Europe and North America.)

Some people disagree with that, saying that maybe it was so 30 years ago but that that sort of sexist discrimination has basically gone away now. Some of those people go further and say that actually now it's being female that confers unearned advantages.

I'm pretty sure that almost everyone would agree that at least one of the following two propositions is true: (1) 30 years ago, being male conferred substantial unearned advantages in life. (2) Now, being female confers substantial unearned advantages in life.

Either way, we've got an example of a widely-distributed characteristic that confers substantial advantages for reasons other than merit.
It's not just Western languages. It's how text was encoded until the 90s and early 2000s for pretty much every language except Chinese, Japanese and Korean (maybe Thai, I am not sure). That's the "famous" CJK acronym for languages that really did require double byte character sets. For example Russian, Greek, Hebrew, and Indic languages all have alphabets that will fit very easily in 128 codepoints (Vietnamese too, which is Latin but with a large number of diacritics).

Welcome to POSIX locales.

> Great, now isalnum returns true for ä if I'm using de_DE.latin1 or whatever, but is still nonsense for any non-western language.

Technically it's already nonsense for western languages as ISO-8859 is long outdated, and any codepage other than ISO-8859-1 will not fit inside a uchar when decoded from UTF-8. Also there were non-western languages which fit in 8-bit encodings for which isalnum would work fine.

> And the price we pay for that is a messed up pile of garbage that nobody understands and can segfault.

Welcome to POSIX locales. And also C, where not reading and understanding the implication of every word in the specification means you're bad and therefore deserve everything you get. In this case, POSIX clearly specifies that input values outside of EOF or "unsigned char" is UB.
