On the other hand, I do appreciate the relative consistency with "Sign Up". Because it's de facto standard, I know what to expect when I click that button. Sometimes I want to create an account and seeing a button like "Start Drawing" doesn't tell me what to expect.

Some of the ones in the happy medium seem good though, like "Create a Free Account" or "Sign Up Free".
Anyone got suggestions for resources to learn Ruby and Rails in 2020?

I’ve been following over the years and this very simple analysis says to me that they’re (RS) are desperately playing catch-up with culture. There’s a LOT of black albums suddenly appearing in the list making the previous lists look like they were compiled by Linnaeus.

Personal opinion: Purple Rain making a jump to slightly below where it should be (below Rumours? Gimme a break) with Sign O The Times nowhere near suggests that this years’ judges still don’t know their shit. Just get Robert Christgau to write it all next time?
"What's Going On" in first place? Yeah, I don't see it. It's good, but it wasn't THAT good even when it came out. Whereas Sgt Pepper was heraled and recognized as such from day one -- and for the next decades. And number 3 is Joni Mitchel's Blue?

This is more about pandering to 2020 ideologies and taste than about a somewhat objective album ranking.
Frequently presented arguments:

Worrying about things like security would adversely impact your time-to-market.

Security isn't a feature---it has to be baked in from the ground floor and isn't apparent to the end user except as a annoyance.

Security is a difficult problem that requires at least some minimum of knowledge and experience---knowledge and experience that are unrelated to the device or the development of its new features.

There is no financial or professional upside to paying for security, and no financial downside to not doing so.

Security is always regarded as a magic-bullet topic; there must be some magic pixie dust to sprinkle on the device to make security problems disappear. Like firewalls, VPNs, and encryption.

Security problems have two advantages. First, they are rather rare and something that happens to other people. Second, they are easy to push off onto the end user: "Well, har, har, you wouldn't have this problem if you had just..."

The devices themselves are regarded in black-or-white terms: either a coffeemaker with multiple processors is the best thing since Attila the Hun invented the pillage, or the whole idea is more idiotic than selling a fish a bicycle. No one is interested in a middleground, cost-benefit analysis.

Yes, many of these put the responsibility for the (lack of) security of devices on the engineers and developers. That's why we get paid the big bucks.

Every piece of has a number of different musical copyrights. The rights to the song itself - usually represented by sheet music in any form, so tab will do - is one of them. The rights to a specific recording are a different one.

So it doesn't matter if you transcribe the music by ear. You're still transcribing *someone else's composition" - and they still own the copyright.

This is true even if you get it substantially wrong - but then it's useless anyway, in a teaching context where the whole point is for it not to be wrong.
Yes. From my perspective the only thing of value in FB is the advertising channel. If FB wasn't around Google would work just fine.

True friends and family? You already have their contact info.

The way I would suspend or shutdown FB would be to only allow their Messenger product to function and give users, say, 90 days to ensure they get contact info for those they care about before Messenger is put on hold. And then it goes dark.

I have to admit bias here. I am very angry about what FB has done to our beloved family members. We are powerless to reverse the damage, and it isn't getting any better.

Well, I'll chime in with a weird bug that was supposedly gone from previous versions but came back in WP 5.4 Gutenberg.

You know those side panels where you can change values for blocks like padding, etc.? Well, every time I started typing in a value, the input field would lose focus. So if I wanted to enter 100 as a value for height in pixels, I would need to enter 1, click back in the field, enter 0, click back in the field, enter 0 again. Or type it in a text edit and copy-paste.

Googling told me it was a bug that had crept back: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/20950

It was fixed again in WP 5.5, but it was agonising working on layouts before that.
"It sucks" anonymous or not is useless feedback.

"I had a hard time with XYZ" Is better.

"When a and b was difficult, but not a and c, that was fine." Is even better.

However, "I would have abc instead of xyz" isn't great." Depending on who it came from might be a wild goose chase.

So, overall, if the human can take it thought full, actionable, and accurate advice always wins out in technical spheres.

Personal development is similar, but it takes a strong person to take feedback of any kind. Mostly because there's so much subjectivity involved. Which, of course, washes away when 3 out of 4 people in a company of 400 all say the same thing.

I would say the quality of the feedback is more important.

This is how I feel about the security cameras we have at my house. Initially I got very anxious every time a (usually false-positive) alert arrived; now I'm so desensitized I basically ignore them. I know when my house or garage gets burglarized I'll have some nice, grainy over-exposed videos of the entire event but no real advantage over where I was before.
I don't think Kendrick Lamar moving from not being rated in previous years to #19 in 2020 with To Pimp A Butterfly represents a loss of 19 points.

They are not synonyms, they mean slightly different things. And that is the problem.

Because for small datasets the difference doesn’t matter this results in beginner programmers choosing randomly, which 2/3 of time is the wrong choice.
If you are actually into coffee, you likely would not buy these devices. I consider them a novelty, but there are plenty of consumers who will end up with them as gifts. You can make way better coffee much cheaper or just buy a Moccamaster and be done with it forever. If you're into espresso, that's an entirely different rabbit hole (and much more expensive).

Well, as sad as it is for someone like me, who lives and breathes Emacs, there are already signs showing. There's still no decent support for C++, even in community. If you have a patience to bash together a number of elisp packages and write some extra config to paper over the idiosyncrasies of your project, then sure, you'll get something mostly working. But then just downloading Visual Studio will get you 90% there.

There's support for language servers (and I consider the existence of LSP to be a new hope for Emacs and Vim to stay relevant in the future), but it's arguably so-so.

As good as the Emacs community is, it still has pretty limited amount of time and manpower to throw at problems. I feel the wider development world starts to outpace this capacity.

I’m not talking about rangeCheck, I’m talking about the code they took from Apache Harmony (37 APIs, something like 12kloc) and the corresponding structure, sequence, and organization of the Java APIs. I don’t feel like relitigating this either as the courts have already decided this was infringing. Also, the de minimis was overturned on appeal.

> Writing a one time migration tool however does involve implementing a version of the API

No, it doesn’t. It involves calling the API, and translating the data structures it returns to another API. If they provided a function identical to one in the Oracle API that did different things in Postgres, that might be different.

>I think the onus is on you to make a legal argument for why it is of importance

I’m not a lawyer so any legal argument I make is unlikely to hold water. Instead I will merely suggest that if this project reused 12,000 lines of SQL included in Oracle Database that would probably constitute infringement, but I don’t believe it does include that.

> Suppose, for example, Google had implemented there vm by creating a one time translation tool that translated java std lib apis to an internal google std lib apis in the bytecode, would that have changed the suit?

I’m not a lawyer, I have no idea and I find counterfactuals mostly uninteresting, especially when the exact details of Oracle vs Google are so frequently glossed over.

How and what do you use for package management on emacs?
My point before you went on this tangent of people living in slums, is that a vegetarian diet is cheaper and more compassionate. So here are some facts for your wazoo....

https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/country_result.jsp?cou...

Rice (white), (1kg) 51.41 ₱ 40.00-65.00
Eggs (regular) (12) 87.86 ₱ 60.00-120.00
Chicken Fillets (1kg) 194.91 ₱ 100.00-280.00
Beef Round (1kg) 304.93 ₱ 200.00-450.00
Apples (1kg) 127.25 ₱ 44.09-213.32
Banana (1kg) 73.52 ₱ 40.00-150.00
Oranges (1kg) 118.48 ₱ 40.00-262.60
Tomato (1kg) 64.46 ₱ 30.00-120.00
Potato (1kg) 86.40 ₱ 30.00-150.00
Onion (1kg) 88.76 ₱ 40.00-150.00

As you can clearly see, vegetables and grains cost less than meat.

Your point, that killing and eating stray dogs, rats, cats, etc, because they are freely available, is an absolute extreme fringe case and you negate the fact that these slum inhabitants also earn money and they can buy vegetables and live a more compassionate life if they chose to.

Also I did some research on your claims about slums, in the Payatas slum outside of Manilla city near Quezon, the couple in the below linked article with their 4 children eat food from dumpster diving known as "pagpag" even though they earn up to 1000 pesos per day. It is a choice they make to eat discarded meat. They don't have to, but they choose to.

https://www.businessinsider.in/in-philippine-slums-meat-scav...

You can try to make a point that eating free stray dogs is necessary for impoverished slum dwellers, but the facts seem to contradict your position. Killing is never compassionate.

BTW, I didn't flag your comment, someone else who doesn't like the smell of your BS emotionally charged rant did.

Oh and please disengage for all our sakes Dave.
whoops... meant retraction
There was a comment a few weeks ago about someone saying how money doesn’t matter - his family doesn’t care if his networth aged 40 was $2m or $20m.

According to Wikileaks it is their prerogative
“ WikiLeaks specializes in the analysis and publication of large datasets of censored or otherwise restricted official materials involving war, spying and corruption”

Unless you think China and Russia are free from spying and corruption.

But Judging by your cheap attempt to detract from my message youre more interested in slander than the truth. Much like Wikileaks.
Based on my experience, SSEs add more complexity and brittleness to applications compared to WebSockets.
Having a single WebSocket connection to handle both RPCs and subscriptions is great because it binds all data flows to the lifecycle of a single socket - So if that single connection fails, it's easy to identify the disconnection and recover from it.

Another major benefit of WebSockets is that you can control the exact timing of RPCs and subscriptions without having to worry about race conditions when the server expects to receive actions in a specific order.

Also, SSEs add a lot of overhead because you need to authenticate each SSE channel independently (unlike with WebSockets where you only need authenticate a socket once at the beginning and then use it to subscribe to almost unlimited channels); so if you have many SSE EventSources, establishing them will waste a lot of resources since you need to pass the auth token (or session ID) to each EventSource that you open - In general, SSE authentication is tricky and forces you to rely on cookies which can be a problem in a lot of situations (e.g. on mobile if the front end is loaded the local file system as part of a WebView, your cookies will not be sent to the server due to cross-origin restrictions).

Moreover, the lack of control over the lifecycle of the SSE connection makes it difficult to coordinate recovery from network or server failure/restart; a common problem happens when your server crashes and then all the SSE event sources try to reconnect immediately at the same time and this DDoSes your server again, then the reboot and crash cycle repeats indefinitely...
With WebSockets, you can control the reconnect algorithm to add exponential backoff, for example (it can be customized to your exact requirements).

Finally, the statefulness of WebSocket connections can be a huge advantage; you can store data pertaining to a single active client in-memory on the server-side which can be convenient for a lot of use cases (and efficient). For example, you can attach an auth token on the back end socket (in memory) and can use it to quickly check access rights for any channel without having to make an additional database call.

SSEs are not a practical abstraction IMO. It's sad that people don't realize how good the WebSocket standard is. It's good because it's simple; it's also what makes it so flexible. WebSockets cover more use cases.

Subscriptions as a concept have to support too many use cases (too generic) to be implemented with something as restrictive as SSEs.
Another anecdote. I'm in the Midwest of the US and you won't get that kind of comp without getting closer to the money than an IC.

But we can do this all day. Without larger studies or well run surveys it doesn't say much to those who aren't some combination of very talented, lucky, or well connected.

Edit: some, not done
Good communication is the key to any system working well.
Gresham's Law arrives in the kitchen?
This attack works for a single brand of device if it's either not been configured for wifi yet or you're on the same wifi (and within wifi range or control the router, just access to the wifi isn't enough). So the risk profile to an owner seems negligible. Probably more risk that your coffee maker will have a short circuit and catch on fire. If this is the doomsday scenario then I can see why no one cares.

Although I don't think Radiohead are anywhere near as good as a lot of people say they, OK Computer - thematically at least - was very prescient in capturing the feel of a world rapidly accelerating towards the world we have now.
Kid A jumped significantly as well. I think we collectively/culturally embrace electronic and “experimental” (awful term but widely used) music much more now than in the 2000s. Radiohead while popular on the charts were quite ahead of their time.
Well, it's the monetary stimulus going off scale. The amount of money being printed by the Fed is ridiculous, and it causes all these bubbles - and a lot of people think that they sit on a lot of money and plan their retirements on spending it. Not going to happen because this money - like home and stock values - doesn't exist, it exists on paper only as long as not enough people are trying to spend it.

System would be balanced if seeking profits and seeking exits was similarly valued and respected, if VCs would invest money looking for stream of dividends as much as exit/IPO of the company... But that would take average P/E about 5..8, not 25-30 it is. Till then, and as long as "revenue business" is a derogatory term, we can know that startups are little but a generational Ponzi scheme.
That's pretty standard if you have a HDMI dongle that doesn't also provide power supply. Of course people do that and HW needs to handle it.
Two issues:

1. "...while someone else takes care of the security." That doesn't actually seem likely.

2. Congratulations! You have now invested $N in development costs and glued your business to the side of Amazon's Alexa Division's business decisions.

So much potential to become a real trojan
some of it feels sincere generational shift. Like Prince and Michael Jackson and Lauryn Hill, but Aretha Franklin which I might consider to be a needed correction does not feel like a generational shift - other than the new generation thinking previous generations undervalued women of color etc. which I guess they also did so, hard for me to judge the sincerity, although there sure is a lot of stuff I think really?
Really liked this list, very fun. Some things that stood out for me:

- So many Beatles entries near the top

- Surprised by how many of these artists I know very well (90%)

- Lots of really great hip hop making big leaps forward

- It’s noticeable how much all of these artists/albums are a cut above the rest of the industry

- Even though I love all these albums, I hardly ever listen to any of them, it’s like going to the Louvre, very rarely but it is lovely
They stuck to their "dad/classic rock + some 90s/early 00s rock + the three jazz/soul albums everyone knows" until the ad revenue wasn't there and they're trying to overcompensate for it.

It’s one of something. When one of something and one of another thing are observed it’s expressed as 1 and 1 so two rivers become one they represent a quantity of observation.

Then as 1 and 1 totaling two rivers they come together then exist as 1.

Representation is relative on an arbitrary border of quantity. The rules leak for any rule that exists.

One father and one mother have a kid. One and one make another one totaling three.

• and • make •.

Usually a person will substitute 1 for the observation of a “thing” so • will be father, and another • mother +1+1=+1

One unit and another one unit makes a third unit. Yet one unit plus another unit is two units.
I guess there it doesn't really make a difference, but Pixabay pictures are most of the time included in the search results of similar search engines: therefore I feel it is more easy to find them on the internet.

In the end the platform (IMHO) doesn't really matter, but Wikimedia Commons doesn't always hold public domain pictures. I actually realized that the picture I posted was licensed CC-BY-SA on Wikimedia: I immeditely changed that to CC0 as soon as I noticed (:

No, you're confusing with unstable Lagrange points and Lissajous orbits. Stable Lagrange points have forces that move back the object if it's perturbed. So, perturbed slightly, the object can move around the exact Lagrange point in various ways, but come back.
