Crypto and the Communist Manifesto- Part 1 Quotes
> It's more of an appeal to emotion than a rational reason.

It sounds more respectable if you call it an 'intuition pump'. Whether or not it is rational to want to defecate privately, this point may lead some fraction of those whose mind was previously made up to reconsider their position. In those cases, it can be the beginning of a conversation.
The Supreme Court may be the endgame of this trial. Maybe that's why they don't care about the jury. It'll doubtless be appealed no matter who wins, so does the outcome even matter?
I'm sorry, I don't understand how to parse your first sentence
'injuncted' is the preferred term in Australia.

I assume "enjoined" is preferred in the USA (and in all fairness, I guess it would be better to use the American term for an American case).

Dokku user and now CapRover user. I have to say it's my favorite for spinning up a new project. I don't know if I'd use CapRover for anything production just yet but I love it for development. For me it's the perfect "stick this server, client, DB combo on a server, add HTTPS, and don't make me think about it".

I feel confident that anything I throw on CapRover I could move to "more production-level" setup easily if I wanted; using managed db's, containers, block storage etc on AWS/Google/etc. Like, if I can get it working in CapRover I know I can run it anywhere and CapRover makes it super easy to get my idea hosted and running "in the cloud" quickly. I don't know why but seeing my project run full-time, verses just when I'm developing locally, is a huge motivator for me so CapRover is perfect for me in the same way I use Caddy for my local services. I want fast, safe, and easy with the knowledge I can scale up with some work in the future but I don't need it for day 1.
Like everything, the answer is "it depends." I wrote a book a decade or more ago on an F/OSS project I was involved with. The advance worked out to about $2/hour, and I've never sold sufficient copies to go beyond that. That being said, it was always intended more as a labor of love and a way of promoting the project than it was a way to make money.
Sadly, there was a political battle within the project's core team, and the fundamental API of the project changed around in a non-backwards-compatible way. That rendered my book semi-obsolete within months of publishing. I left the project shortly thereafter. While those externalities don't bear directly on the book-writing experience, they may be things to keep in mind: stability of the subject you're writing about, general versus specific applicability, and the health of the community you're writing for.
It is much more efficient for the air conditioner to allow a gap between the target temperature and the trigger temperature. Without that, it just has to run constantly to make sure that it isn't 0.01 degrees warmer than requested.
And that may be what you want it to do, but it's an incredibly pointless waste of energy.
Masterfully done. :)

Someone draw the line for me, when does personal responsibility for one’s own health lead to labeling everything a carcinogen?
how many actually think of their jobs being decades-long certainties though?

in this market, the likelihood of maintaining a salary for 2-years, 5-years, 10-years are so abysmally small compared to all the other lock-ins in life - housing, marriage, citizenship. i have the same angst when my salary was $50k/year as at $500k/year.
Depends on the stage of the startup. Most CTO's don't do anything except control the overall direction of the company.
Replace "social" with "government" in all of these "social" systems, and everything become crystal clear.
Wait, sitting at an office and still using Slack makes on-site work much different than remote? You think in-person meetings at work are productive? I can't forget the nice excuse to have an hour-long meeting, which lasted only 15 minutes, but people had a proof on their calendar that they "worked" for an hour. Or "starting work" at 9am... but really having coffee and eating breakfast until 10am... or having a 2-hour lunch break, which was supposed to be just one hour. Oh, wait, it was a working lunch. Although offices open at 9am, nobody dared to schedule meetings before 10am or in the 1pm-2pm interval for the above-mentioned reason. Can't forget also the blood-sugar spike right after lunch when people were falling asleep during the afternoon meetings.

I've been working remotely in the past 10+ years and I'm never looking into on-site work again! The time "invested" in commute with all the risks associated with driving are not worth it - even if it pays slightly better. But usually it doesn't. For example, in Orange County, CA you can't find a well-paying job - the best jobs are remote and OC is not a fringe case!

Remote work is the nightmare of micromanagers! Everybody else loves remote work!
TossingBot: Learning to Throw Arbitrary Objects (2019)
In my opinion prop 65 is ineffective. It's like the boy who cried wolf or tobacco warnings. People just filter them out and ignore them.
Yea, though only about 400grams are used worldwide mostly for self illuminating signs. Which adds up to 12 million dollars per year of demand resulting in such high prices.

At scale it’s significantly cheaper to produce.
Sure, understandable and reasonable. Just wanted to mention it for others that may care. Fish has some great stuff in there. But, in my case, 30 years of vi muscle memory was hard to blunt.
So he’s wrong then?
I was in CA last year and surprised to see Prop 65 warnings outside every coffee shop because apparently Coffee "may" cause cancer.

It's time for CA to take a step back and stop pretending its citizens are toddlers. People can make their own decisions.

Meantime, organizations like this doctor group go around collecting tax-deductible donations, potentially state/federal grants and paying full time staff.

Waste of resources on so many levels.
It was probably too far in the realm of fiction to be plausible back then, but sounds like it's worth a watch today.
Excuse me, I speak Jive.

I'm boutta up that by $100/mo. =

I am about to increase that amount by $100 per month.
I've had really good luck going for what is now called DevOps. You end up working with every team, doing all sorts of strange tasks, and building strange glue to make strange systems work together. Any time there is a problem, you're involved in the fix. Almost any computer skill you have will be used at some point, at least in my experience.
> The whimsical attitude towards web censorship from both ISPs and the Government necessitates the development of a crowdsourced tool to monitor and measure such censorship from different vantage points in the country.

I have to say, the whimsical attitude towards all kinds of censorship (not just the Internet) and to control people’s behavior is pervasive. Mass media does not focus on issues that have ramifications for the future generations, and the masses have been drugged into believing high pitch and nuance-less broadcasts as the truth. What’s worse is that legislators themselves don’t know or care much about these freedoms or are easily misled by vested interests in the bureaucracy.

Edit: As to why such problems not only exist but also thrive, I have to add the patronizing attitude that the governments (central and state) have towards citizens, residents, critics, dissenters and protestors. This is accepted and nurtured by many people who don’t understand the impact. It’s a long standing phenomenon that could almost be classified as core culture, IMO.
> But it is also the exception and if you want a piece of bespoke software you're likely going to have to pay someone for it.

The reality is that you will find many implementations of software of varying degrees of quality already for whatever you have in mind with an online search. Yes much of it was originally paid for or done for self serving purposes but once it is open source the outcome is that anyone can get the benefits for free.

> It's pretty rare that someone would say 'I need some software to do 'x'' and then magically a team of talented individuals jumps forward to say 'we will provide it for free' and will maintain it for free to boot for the rest of its service life.

You missed the point entirely. Sure you won't get a team of individuals to do that on demand, but the point is that team of talented individuals already created/published the software and actively maintain it.

Love how your fanboys downvoted me after your reply!
Why would anyone assume that a typically sold food (hot dog, bacon etc) causes cancer?

I only found out by looking at the link just now. That’s how important labeling is

Everything isn't a carcinogen. Carcinogens are carcinogens, and they absolutely should be labeled when used.
The state of California contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer.
For Spanish, I use the General English-Spanish dictionary for iOS from https://www.wordmagicsoft.com (they also have Android and desktop apps, apparently). It's fantastic: it lets you look up conjugated verbs and has full conjugation tables as well. I can generally read a fair amount without consulting the dictionary (I'm working my way through Hija de la fortuna by Isabel Allende right now), but every so often I need it, especially when I get into some area of unusual subject matter. Last month I read Federico García Lorca's Romancero Gitano which really gave the dictionary a workout. His use of language is so inventive I found myself looking up words I knew because I would be thinking "does that make sense?" an awful lot. I may have to read García Lorca annually just because it expanded my mind so much.
California is in for a rough ride. Businesses are leaving the state, Tesla has threatened to move its HQ to Nevada or Texas.
It depends: packet loss due to bitorrent is a problem, but low loss and high latency makes it dramatically worse, and that is the bufferbloat cast. If you have 1-30 second pings (or I've seen even worse), when doing torrents or other heavy outbound traffic, it falls apart.

a cheapie dishwasher that was so loud I'd only run it when I left

I'm not sure that's a good idea.

I had a dishwasher that had the failure described in the article linked below. The electronics circuitry (top of door) caught fire. Opening the door didn't stop the smoke, and also caused water to spew uncontrollably into the kitchen.

Fortunately I made a quick dash out to the garage and turned off the breaker so there was no damage to the kitchen.

But if I wasn't home .... what would have happened? If we were all sleeping upstairs while the fire was downstairs .... what would have happened?

Don’t need to draw the line. For better or worse, California has already passed prop 65. This is just suing for the law to be enforced.

Nobody seems to give a crap about Google’s monopoly on search, not even Google
This has basically been my role for the past decade, minus management. In that time I've worked at tiny startups, hypergrowth unicorns, and the biggest tech comapnies. In no case have I ever been hired as a jack-of-all-trades fixer. In every case I was hired because of my specialty (mobile development), and ended up just "making myself useful".

In my experience, job titles, levels, and even team membership are more "guidelines" than rules, and are often trailing indicators of what and how you're actually doing. I wouldn't worry about finding the perfect opening - just find a team you like and a manager who seems to get it.
Do you like eating wax? Rutabagas are commonly coated in paraffin wax to prevent them drying out, but no one eats raw, unpeeled rutabagas. On the other hand, cucumbers are usually eaten raw with the skin intact.
Education or information is not control or nannying. Decision != informed decision.

I think any regulation that at minimum benefits consumers when it's hardly anything for corporations to add to their existing labelling is good for society and a great allocation of resources.

This is different to the forced wearing seatbelts when driving, which genuinely forces the restriction of one's physical freedom, and yet benefits no one else but you (within the scope of your own decisions) if you have a car accident.

Mere information, backed by science, is good.
Prop 65 should be amended to set a minimum bar for meaningfully cancerous things, otherwise, all things are labelled cancerous and the warning has no meaning.
Try to consider other way around.

Native application is:

1. HTML - declaration of UI structure (think about accessibility here to).

2. CSS - declaration of how that UI structure shall be presented to the user.

3. script - declaration (too, sic!) of how UI structure (a.k.a. DOM) shall be updated in response to user events and application events/state.

4. Native code of application - generates events for UI, provide data to be presented, consumes UI events data updates from UI.

I mean that native languages in Sciter/Rust, Sciter/C++, Sciter/Go applications are talking more with script rather than to particular UI objects. And that script plays a role of declarative/configurational layer translating linear application logic into asynchronous UI concepts. UI and business logic talk with each other in terms of messages - loosely coupled layers, separation of concerns and memory organization, all that.

And it's only gotten worse over time. Even the garage in my apartment building now says it causes cancer! What am I supposed to do about that?
You're right, but Californians embrace the Nanny State, unfortunately. It's sad.
Sign in with Apple is tied to the developer account. I'm guessing it was assumed that it would be disabled since Apple released a statement saying they were terminating Epic's account.

John Gruber gets special access to Apple - and in return asks softball questions and is never too critical (that's my take anyway).
Wow, do they know that there is a decent correlation with almost every food and cancer? https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/everything-we-eat-causes-ca... Very good post on this topic, the literature is very chaotic.
I'm not well versed in physics, but when I think about the fact that electric motors haven't changed all that much it sort of makes sense.

Inducing a current by moving something in a magnetic field, or vice versa, may seem like simple designs, but perhaps that's why we haven't replaced them yet. Rotational motion seems easy to service and efficient.

Friend lost computer. looking for an angel who might have one to sell
Hi, I'm philip. I was on reddit when there were no pics on the site, I'm here now because I'm trying to save a friends life.

He is autistic, he is depressed. Someone broke into his house and stole everything but the computer, he can't live without. He is a genius. Can code in several languages. I need an angel here. I'm sorry to ask this. Anyway he doesn't have much cash and wants one from someone who always buys the latest gear and is moving on. It is Thinkcentre p330 tiny i9 32gb 1TB nvme version.

Does anyone have one to sell? Can anyone help me get one?

Thanks a million.

Ask me anything, I will answer.

So you are just going to completely ignore the actual judges that I quoted?

> But, the judge in this particular case

The judges have specifically agreed with me on the issue that I brought, which is that the important issue in the case is the market definition. Please do not try misdirect from what I am specifically saying here.

So, to restate, the important issues in the case are the market definition, and not anything that you brought up. And the judge agrees with me on this, regarding what the important issues are in this case, and do not agree with you on that.
A lot of commonplace stuff can cause harm above a certain dosage. Which is partially why Prop 65 is failing.

99% of things in Prop 65 are fine in moderation. And the 1% that isn't (I would love to be warned of that myself) - well, it's lost among everything else.
I was about to say exactly the same thing.
That's quite the strawman of the argument. I mean, why bring up UBI? Communists also talk about the issues of capitalism, and it'd be kinda funny to hear them try to integrate "income" into their curtencyless philosophy.

> think history has a bunch of examples.

Which part of history has automation and post scarcity? This would be news to me!

> consuming media with no other purpose.

Far be it for me to judge what people do with their time. I hate running but there's these maniacs that run marathons.
I’m sure either side could pull some nickels out of their seat cushions to pay more if they thought it was in their best interest.
I'm a novice vim user, so it's a learning curve to be sure (I mean, perhaps it is anyway since it's applied to a browser instead of a text editor). But I love this addon for the same reason I learned to love vim: it really is just faster to do all kinds of manipulation with just the keyboard. I'm not a developer by trade but I found writing and editing prose documents (typically usability reports and documentation) faster and easier with vim. This makes browsing similarly easier and the hints mode is fantastic for websites with shit UI.

Now whenever I use something like discord to talk with my gaming friends I find myself wanting the same keybindings.
Many (Californians) disparage the notion of individual responsibility, and see things as collective concerns.
Walking around California there are literally prop 65 warnings everywhere. Some stupidly high percent of products I buy come with a prop 65 warning. It sure feels like everything causes cancer, at least in the state of California. The warnings have lost all meaning and I don’t even live in California. It just makes California look paranoid and stupid.

This seems to suggest that there is a difference between heterogametic and homogametic brains.
They end up homeless and begging or stealing to eat.

So, it sounds like UBI would be effective in reducing overhead, but not much else will change if people choose to blow their UBI?
It’s your job to highlight your relevant skills and experience during interviews. It’s especially important to be proactive about unusual experience that canned questions won’t hit, like an OSS project you run or a book you wrote. Remember that having something good is NEVER enough. You HAVE to tell people about it.

Case in point - you don’t even link the project in your comment! I can’t even begin to give you specific advice because I don’t know anything about your project beyond its age and basic popularity tier. Maybe it’s super relevant to me and I would benefit from bringing you in for some consulting. We’ll never know because you didn’t mention the crucial details.

Here are some generic things you can try:

- Don’t be afraid to mention your specific project in relevant settings, like this forum or an interview.

- Use examples from your project to answer questions (“Sure I know about X, I considered using that when my project needed Y, and my benchmarking eventually suggested Z was better in that instance”)

- List the OSS project on your resume like a job (“Primary Maintainer, MyLibrary, 2012-. Designed, Implemented and Maintained a library with 12,000 github stars. Reviewed and merged 300 community pull requests. Implemented CI/CD...”)

- Identify corporate users of your OSS and proactively offering consulting

- Speak at conferences/meetups focused on your programming language/ framework /industry

- Blog about the project and your experiences with it

Can someone explain what this means, practically speaking? I know Haskell fairly well, but am not familiar with linear types. These are types that can be used only once, right?
I mean.. in a hybrid I dont care. I want the car to control it, but I want to know that it's being controlled.

If the car fuel economy is getting worse I will use the data feedback to collate anecdotal evidence to deliver to my mechanic.

I might pay a visit to my mechanic sooner if I see strange behavior. I t might save me money, it might save a life.... but with a fake ass dashboard feeding me bullshit readings It's not in the slightest bit useful.
Devil's advocate: pressure your local government to build more bike lanes and public transit so as to nullify the need for you to regularly expose yourself to carbon monoxide.

But I do feel that the cancer warnings are excessive to uselessness.
No, it says "known to California". Just treat it like you would the wild ramblings of a crazy man.

California is best treated as such.

The problem is that linux is pretty much a source-level operating system. It's designed that way philosophically and practically... or is that impractically?

Dynamic linking is probably your path if you're developing an app that is packaged and shipped with some distribution of linux and you use standard interfaces.

But yeah, a game would make this all wrong. With dynamic linking your game would last one release cycle. As soon as ubuntu 20.04 comes out, your 18.04 game would stop working. You'd get some weird shared library mismatch in your 100 dependencies and that would be that.

try this for fun:

That's probably their thinking, but unless their aggregates include all of the other products that each customer who buys an item also buys (which it should, they have the data thanks to fly-buys schemes) they can't properly assess the overall impact of a given product.

As a trivial example, just looking at the profitability of individual items would lead them to discontinue selling milk (I mean, there's no profit in it so why bother?) because it's generally used as a loss leader.

No, I am saying the UBI payments aren’t a lump sum, they are regular payments (like every 2 weeks, for example)

Someone can only blow the two weeks of money.

If they still can’t survive, I am a saying we could have other programs to assist that group (it will be a much smaller population), and I am saying the help would be counseling, training, etc.
