That's just a link to Facebook, which is much better than the more common method for sharing which involves letting Facebook run JavaScript on your website.
I'm not sure you're arguing in good faith. I suggested no such thing about pedophilia, and numerous articles about research into the cycle of poverty and crime are trivial to look up (e.g. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7234816/).

Should you hire someone with a criminal record? Hiring decisions are extremely contextual. Your examples are nowhere near specific enough to address without generalization. But consider that people who have committed white-collar crimes sometimes are hired for their security expertise (e.g. Kevin Mitnick), and I see nothing wrong with that.

When I was running a SaaS product we had your same basic policies, but had made some refund exceptions when we felt the platform failed or the person made reasonable requests we didn't respond to timely or appropriately. Frankly, that should always be the case regardless of how big you get or what your policy is IMO.

People do this all the time, consumer and B2B. They'll sign up, use it a little then forget to cancel and get busy and it wasn't a big enough pain point cost wise so they let it roll a couple of months then say hey I couldn't cancel 2 months ago when I tried so please refund my 2 months. As long as I could honestly say the user didn't try, and that the system was operating appropriately during that time my response was always simple. We got your request, however on your account page there is always a way to cancel and I'd explain how. Since we give you that option and it stops billing that month (or whatever you do) we have a no refund policy as part of the agreement you accepted when signing up. Then direct them to cancel their account through the app.

If someone pushes back nicely after that I might give a 1 month one time courtesy refund but never more than one month. If they are being douchy it is always a no. Trying to keep people from complaining by giving refunds is a losing battle I have learned. Look at Amazon, one of the easiest companies to get a refund/return generally and they seriously ask so few questions about it yet people complain that they are unfair and bullies etc. You will always have someone complain, so trying to "buy" their quiet through a refund doesn't work IME, just be fair, honest and try to be understanding but firm on the rules you setup.
Seems like you're losing something here -- ISTM that the goodness of a reified massage is now lost. A message, as a piece of data, can be tested, stored, passed on, etc., while a "call" (the .get()) cannot.

How so? The cancellation request has already been made in writing. This just adds protection against the merchant continuing to charge you.

The aim is never to make things difficult for beginners on purpose. The point is that making things less confusing for beginners is not worthwhile if it comes at the cost of making things more cumbersome for practitioners.
Chinese iPhone repair guys are hand soldering SMDs all the time, you can definitely solder SMDs on THT perfs or get SMD perfs. It's more of the matters of your motor skills and perhaps whether you have a good video microscope if it gets really small.
$99 a month. I had to read the page twice to check that the phone itself is included. It’s not.
Comparing a dense urbanized island to the vastness of the US isn't really a fair comparison.

I'm not suggesting that $99 isn't too much, just that to expect price parity when the average subscribers per square mile is vastly different isn't realistic.
Perhaps it's because of loss of control? Previously one may have relied on an academic's interpretation via interview and now the upscaled video becomes the more compelling medium.
You rightly acknowledge that it's a difference in scale not in kind.
Because everything is on Ethereum. Once you're in the Ethereum eco-system, there's no reason to leave. Once you're in Ethereum, then you can do whatever you want. Trade on DEXs, do swaps, lend, borrow, leverage, stablecoins, zk mixing, farm liquduity tokens, etc. Once you use Monero, if you ever want to do anything useful with your crypto, you're going to have to inject it into the Ethereum ecosystem, and that inherently means interacting with a CEX. So why not skip that step and just deposit your crypto into tornado.cash and wait for the pool to be sufficiently mixed. That way, you never need to interact with a CEX to actually use dapps on Ethereum.
>I didn't find any of those tweets unprofessional.

"There was a lot of work done to brainwash African people to believe that the white man had the monopoly on truth & that he was favored by God. We need to understand the way Christianity has been used to dominate African people, land and resources."

Spouting that nonsense is absolutely unprofessional, and ahistorical.

>I found them to be a genuinely interesting perspective on social issues that I am interested in.

That speaks more about you than anything.

>I am not sure how that's unprofessional of her.

I just highlighted how. Making crazy claims about a religion is accepted in no professional environment I've ever been in, and I've worked in SV for a long time.

>She is entitled to tweet whatever she wants to from her personal twitter account.

No one said otherwise, you're strawman-ing really hard now. You specifically asked for things that "she [said] that made her come off that way to you?" I provided examples. The fact that they came from her personal Twitter account is immaterial. She links her Twitter account on her LinkedIn, web page, etc., so, it's not specifically a personal account.

>Do you think its reasonable for her to follow your idea of how a Director of Engineering should tweet?

It's not my idea, it's generally accepted that spouting racist, anti-Christian rhetoric on Twitter is unbecoming of any leader.

And those tweets were just from September...

Serious question - if the word "master" is now bad, even in cases where the term "slave" is absent, shouldn't we be renaming the "Master's" degree? I don't fully understand all the nuance here.
Can someone repost the actual story? I can't figure out how to find it on Reddit. I can only see some of the comments.
My favorite concept on this topic is CAR (Competence, Autonomy, Relatedness) from Self-determination theory [0]

Giving people these at their job provides great satisfaction and better performance:

- Competence: using your abilities at a task, experiencing mastery

- Autonomy: having the ability to make decisions about the task

- Relatedness: understanding how the task relates to something bigger that helps others

It's not about erasing history. It's about the ongoing impact of blatantly referencing the notion of enslaving people.
Maybe this a stupid question but why does Mozilla even need a separate Corporation with top heavy (and fairly inept) execs and CEO?

Mozilla the _Foundation_ is the recipient of donations, why can't the developer teams work under the foundation directly, as they would for an NGO? Maybe my ignorance but I assume that is more or less the model of the Linux Foundation?
> Academic historians are concerned with not just what happened in history, but how we know what happened in history.

No. Academic historians are concerned with maintaining the dominant historical narrative that they themselves have created.

> "Hamilton" is a powerful piece of art--today--but it's not accurate history in an academic sense.

Sure, but academic history is no more "true" or "accurate" than the Hamilton play. The historical concept of Hamilton is fiction created by historians affected by their own biases. History is interpretation. It isn't fact. It isn't science.

> That nuance is going to be hard for a lot of people to understand.

That's true for any "history". Nevermind that almost no historical document/artefact/etc is the "original", but the "history" we know is ultimately manufactured fiction. There are facts and then there is history ( which is what is colored in between the facts by historians ).

There is Hamilton the actual person, then there is the historical adaptation of Hamilton, the play adaptation, movie adaptation, documentary adaptation, etc which are all fiction.
Similarly, the first Superman wore a grey suit, because it was captured better by the black and white cameras.
The historical films also represent the directors' vision, as they had to choose the lens/film/exposure/processing to interpret the image and get their message across. 4K HDR would just gives them more knobs to tweak. A documentary has less control over what happens in front of the camera, but the whole workflow behind the camera is still completely under the directors' control.

>someone has a requirement for their culture that doesn't impede work, we SHOULD accommodate that: yes, we should have vegetarian options at the company lunches. Yes, we should be okay with Jewish coworkers taking off Yom Kippur.

Easy claim to make without a budget to follow or time limitations.

> If someone has a requirement for their culture that doesn't impede work, we SHOULD accommodate that.

I don't think you understand the magnitude of what you're saying.

The focus on including every possible diverse characteristic instead of just not excluding anything and fine tuning from there is a fools errand. The possible cultural requirements are infinite.

> Either way, the difficulty in this process isn't a convincing argument to not even try.

I don't think you understand what you're saying. It's an impossible task to balance inclusion assuming that one culture has to change to accomodate for another culture. Its perpetual cultural whack a mole.

I think you have good intentions and I think you're passionate about diversity and probably think you're a good person, but I don't hear much of what you are saying is inherently logical.

Just my 2 cents
There are multiple reasons why that may have happened.
In practice, the consumer-facing names of USB standards are dark patterns that allow manufacturers to scam customers without needing to make many (or any) product improvements.

For instance, take the fact that USB 3 and USB 3.1 Gen 1 are functionally equivalent and Gen 2 support (which brings with it the only actual improvements in USB 3.1) is an optional part of the USB 3.1 standard. The functional impact of this arrangement is that manufacturers could take USB 3.0 products, slap a 'USB 3.1' label on them, and market them as New and Improved for only the cost of new markings and marketing material.

Nice money if you can get it.

USB-C is even worse because every feature that end users actually want is optional and, in some cases (such as DP alternate mode lane support), isn't even listed in the fine print. Customers who don't have the awareness to spend many hours doing detailed research will very easily find themselves stuck in an expensive game of trial and error to buy USB-C devices that will actually work together.

Nice money if you can get it.

Like most modern tech products, the entire USB ecosystem reeks of the distinct smell of extractive scam.

Linux Kernel Developers Fed Up with Ridiculous Bugs in Systemd
Treenga is now open source
I decided to open source Treenga issue tracking system I worked on the last year. It was mainly created to provide an easier way to create task descriptions in "full-page" mode, where images will be treated as first-class citizens, and provide a way to manage hundreds of tasks. Something like a hybrid of Dropbox Paper and Github Issues. Treenga has a hierarchical tag structure, so you can create a structure like

Departments

-- Marketing

-- Product

-- Development

Importance

-- High

-- Medium

-- Low

etc.

Now I want to open source it, so you can install it on your own server and use it for free under MIT license. It is done by using Laravel (PHP) and Vue.js and required about a 1 developer/year to build, mainly because of several changes in the project concept (I suppose it would be about 30% faster without that changes).

(in)Secure web: find vulnerabilities before an attacker
You don't get 90 days for a felony, something that short is usually served in local lockup (city/County) and aren't typically included in these sort of stats.

But there is data on people doing under 5 years, and if you compared to that you would likely be right, but don't have the data to prove it.
Side effects. That's exactly why they do it.

Sure it's a security chip but why is it they didn't make it so the owner can do a one-way unlock (like Android's bootloader unlock) so people can fix their own Macs?

Because preventing repairs is one of the desirable side effect of this design.
Yeah I have one but thinking of getting an AMD Desktop and that won't have thunderbolt, although maybe I can buy a PCI card?
I too used Paul Sellers as a guide when I started up, but it's important to realize that he isn't really unplugged. He shows you how you can do it unplugged, but he uses a wide variety of power tools for "monkey work" as he calls it. This includes jointers, planers, and bandsaws (though he demonstrates that tool explicitly).

Unless you're able to get wood already S4S, unplugged is a helluva lot of work.

The key to IKEA furniture, I have found, is to place it where you want it and never move it. I have Billy bookcases that have lasted 15 years while being FULLY loaded. I also have had to replace my son's Billy cases as we've rearranged and updated his bedroom multiple times over the years. He doesn't abuse them, they just don't like be moved in and out the room,even empty, for painting or other projects.
The same meaning as saying someone is a master of their craft?
Unlocking phones isn't in the same scope at all. Locking a phone in the first place was done because carriers were subsidizing phones so they needed to ensure they stayed on their networks. An "unlock code" for root access to a phone is a giant security flaw and a potential vector even for anyone that doesn't want the functionality or care to root their phone. The fact that the option could exist for someone to bypass security is, in and of itself, a security risk. The specific reasons I buy iPhones for family and staff is because I know they can't do those things, even if they wanted to. I want them to have smartphones so they can run specific apps or connect to our servers but I don't want even the possibility of those devices being compromised.

You call it a prison. I call it a fortress.

BitMEX only operates with cryptocurrencies. Not a single US dollar ever passed through it. US citizens were explicitly disallowed to use the service, and the US was blocked by IP. Why it even happened?

> Nope. Key words there are "should call".

I mean, yes, those words are in there, but I'm responding to your words:

> Ada does not have destructors or anything analogous.

Which are factually wrong. Finalize is called automatically (per the link). And they are exactly what you say Ada lacks, analogues of destructors.

Your complaint, now, is that Finalize and Initialize don't automatically call the same functions in the parent. That's a separate issue, and doesn't demonstrate that Ada doesn't have this thing (a variant of destructors) which it very clearly has.
My prediction about that is:

Two years from now - no one will care about that
No. First time I met a 33 it was already quite obsolete. It was used as a terminal and paper tape drive for a CNC emulator that was used for teaching.
I will probably get down voted about this, but I don't care. There are almost no downsides to what they're doing and the people complaining are complaining for silly reasons.

The new term is neutral, it's shorter, the downside of renaming a branch is negligible for git.

A tempest in a teapot.
How do you use perfboards? I never managed to get the wires in the same holes as the component's leg, it was such a hassle that it was literally easier to make SMD PCBs with a 3D printer than to solder on a perfboard.
Microchip need to realize that they're selling chips, not software. The barrier to entry should be as low as possible, providing a free, developer-friendly tool chain to attract hobbyists. Instead they treat software as another IP that should be milked. The unbearable developer experience actually drove me away from they PIC microcontrollers towards AVR many years ago. It's pretty obvious to me that the success of the AVR is in large part due to the open tool chain. Microchip makes very nice chips, I'd like to use them but they're handicapped by the obnoxious tools. It's unfortunate that they solved that problem by outright buying Atmel but not changing their own practices.
The terminology for repositories is rooted in master/slave relationships, even if we no longer use the "slave" part.

The "master" in "master's degree" indicates that you have mastered a topic, and the terminology comes instead from the master/apprentice relationships. Totally different background.

Edit: I provided it in child comments, but support for my claims is available here: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2019-May/...
That's an interesting thought. Severe consequences of climate change can be expected within decades, but apparently that is still to far off and hard to imagine for many people, and hard to sell for politicians. This leaves me wondering if people would accept decades of worsening quality of life (moving into caves etc.) even if the alternative was certain death by gamma rays.
Exactly, and honestly it's pretty intuitive: big devices need big chargers. For me, my laptop is the only device I own that needs a big 100w adapter, everything else can share smaller adapters.

And one big benefit of the current USB-C era is that 15-18W power adapters are more ubiquitous than ever, and compact enough that there's almost never any reason to use a smaller one anymore. And more and more devices are not coming with their own power adapter these days, which is better for the environment and simplifies my life, every usb-c device I own can be charged by the same chargers and will charge quickly.

It's way better than each device coming with its own adapter of arbitrary shape that may or may not be able to be plugged in without blocking the adjacent socket on the wall or power strip, with seemingly arbitrary max power output, with an arbitrary choice of using usb A/mini/micro connector.
Bessey is very good and worth every penny. I also have some Bora clamps that are good. Parallel clamps are generally the best since the clamping force is even.

I've shot digital and film as a hobbies.

I love the Fujifilm X100 line of cameras.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fujifilm_X100#Fujifilm_X100V

Digital, but old school glass viewfinder, classic film type physical, controls, but also the convenience of some gorgeous film emulation if you want it.

I feel like I can operate old school like film (well obviously there isn't a darkroom here) with limited to no digital interaction while I'm photographing, and jump into the digital world when I want that convenience.
Thoughts on Being Vulnerable as a Leader?
First, because US citizens still traded on the exchange. (mostly through a VPN); and second, Bitmex was offering a synthetic USD product. That's worse than being a non-regulated entity that offers real dollars.
