I agree that they can be. There are a few differences:

1. It is not clear that we will ever be free of logic bugs to the same degree that we can minimize memory safety bugs.

2. We're in a specific context in this sub-thread, and that's that you claimed that this is a pervasive issue that everyone must consider all the time. These logic bugs can only be introduced in a context that is very unusual, and so my claim is not that logic bugs in general are irrelevant, but that the context that this kind of bug can appear is smaller than you say it is.

> logic bugs (where Rust is weak)

Rust gives you way more tools than C to reduce logic bugs as well.

Is it really true that Brazilian applications are being rejected more frequently? Two friends of mine got rejected for no obvious reasons this year.
Yes, Apple subscriptions are a reliable way to signup for HBO or Showtime to binge-watch a specific show. Signup and immediately cancel the subscription, that gives you 30 days to watch. No further payment management actions needed.
So basically you are arguing that if all the disinformation published on your site leads to terrorist attacks and worst case, a war (either civil war or think of how disinformation was used by Hitler to convince most of Germany he was doing the right thing), the most ethical thing to do is doing absolutely nothing. Almost everyone want as much freedom of speech as possible but ethically if it leads to huge number of people suffering/dying needlessly there has to be some safeguards. Also, note that FB not publishing something is not against freedom of speech, since they can always create a website to publish any disinformation they want. As long as the government doesn't make a blanket rule against publishing something, there is still freedom of speech.
Are attorneys legally able to alter a contract after it has been signed?

I second this question.

As a follow up, do single papers, patents and interviews help with an eb-1 application ?
I have been following seaweedFS since forever. Played with it on my own homelab.

But I don't know if there's a major shop that uses it. Anyone knows?
Are you suggesting they shouldn’t identify user accounts in violation of terms of service (e.g. spam bots) and terminate them?
Did you know that close to 90% of Chrome extensions, themes, and apps less than 1000 active users? Or that 8 publishers created >1000 items on Chrome Web Store?

Introducing chrome-stats.com - an interactive analytics platform that provides insights into what is going on within Chrome Web Store. It reveals the high level stats of Chrome Web Store, highlighting the most successful and least successful Chrome extensions and publishers. It shows individual extension stats over time, highlighting any gain / loss of users and ratings. It also analyzes extensions based on various factors, such as usage, rating, permissions, size, etc.

Furthermore, users can quickly look at the Chrome extension manifest to know what kinds of permissions it really requires, and how it will impact the browser. Users can also quickly download the extension to further analyze its content, making sure that it is safe to install before installing it.

I built Chrome-Stats on AWS. It crawls the entire Chrome Web Store daily and provide an interactive view of all interesting stats using Svelte + ChartJS.
@kmeisthax did not claim otherwise; your respective claims are not in tension.

However, the "We" is ambiguous: US or EU? Or Canada, Australia, Japan?
Would you recommend changing an EB2 application for an Indian to an EB3, given that the priority dates have jumped to 2014? My priority date is Sept 2011. Or would you recommend sticking with an EB2 whose priority date is only 6 months away from the new EB2 priority date limit, May 2011?

I got a job at Google (mountain view office) and I start this November working remotely but I still don't have my university degree. I will be working from Mexico at least until July 2021. What are my visa options? I already got an offer and signed the contract.

I already completed all my university courses but it takes at least 1 year and a half to get the degree and I have been working as a software engineer in Mexico for 1 year. (3 if you count freelancing).
Why Does No One Use Advanced Hyperparameter Tuning?
Agreed on that. It just looks like the parent commenter is feeling a strong reaction to having their assumptions challenged. Which I think is also a purpose of the article, exposing some of the underlying assumptions of these tropes that many people have fully internalised, and thus would never otherwise question.
That is not scientifically accurate. During the USS Theodore Roosevelt outbreak only 19% of cases were asymptomatic. Those sailors were generally younger and healthier than the general population so if anything we would expect the overall rate of asymptomatic cases to be lower.

So where are you coming up with that 80-95% number?
The whole point of secure programming is caring about those "unusual" contexts. And the comparison to C isn't really fair: C is dangerous for everything. Yes, Rust is better than C, and even better in some ways than C++, but my point is that there's another Rust out there, a Rust^, that's even better than Rust, and Rust^ uses exceptions for error handling throughout.
Yep, look at the implementation:

(defmacro comment
"Ignores body, yields nil"
{:added "1.0"}

A macro that takes any number of arguments and does absolutely nothing. This is still a macro invocation, so the arguments must not cause a reader error.
One of the scariest things a manager can say about his company, if you're thinking of joining it is, "There's no politics here."

Business guys don't perceive getting what they want as "politics" but as the natural, right thing happening. It's "politics" when it's people who aren't them getting what they want. "There's no politics" means that it's a dictatorship where the boss gets everything he wants-- and that's usually not an ideal place to work.

This comment won't leave my head. I think the unspoken, perhaps unrealized, context for this comment is the idea that a company must be predatory to everyone in order to be actually-predatory.

A company that is predatory to literally everyone would not survive long. Obviously any predatory company must benefit one or more groups at the expense of others, or else how could they exist?

I mean, I think Facebook is terrible, but clearly many people find some benefit, or Facebook wouldn't have the billion-plus users they do. I don't deny that some people find benefit from Facebook, I just don't think that benefit outweighs the cost to society.

So Amazon is not predatory to parent commenter. In many ways, they're not predatory directly to me, either! I order goods from them at times, I use AWS, and overall I might argue that my life is better with Amazon than without. But my personal experiences aren't definitive. In order to benefit me, Amazon, by all reports, is preying on others. Competitors, suppliers, employees, and so on.
First of all, I want to say that I really appreciate the work you do in helping people to navigate a complex and evolving legal landscape.

Now, for my question: Is a nonimmigrant considered to be "out of status" between steps (3) and (4) in the following timeline?

1. Arrive to the US with B-2 Visa

2. Apply for F-1 Visa

3. B-2 Visa expires

4. F-1 Visa granted

Additionally, is this considered a violation of the terms or conditions of their nonimmigrant status? From my understanding, they are in a "period of authorized stay" during this time, but I am curious about what this means in terms of status and potential violations of their status.

Thank you so much!
its not a secret nor disputed that the definition of a covid19 death is anyone who happens to die and is also covid19+. its also no secret nor disputed that many hospitals have and still calling any respiratory death a covid19 death without testing if they are covid19+. even public health officials calling for forever lockdowns acknowledge at least half of all of the covid19 deaths would have died in 2020 regardless.

It also didnt help that our health system was killing covid19 patients by giving putting them too aggressively on respirators. it's an inconvenient truth you get shouted at for bringing up.

Even with these absurd metrics for mortality, its clocking in at .3%. So in my opinion, its in the same weight class as the flu, but if you have such a problem with it, that's why I qualified the statement as I said it, depending on what your threshold is.

Keep in mind, the flu at the end of 2019 going into 2020 was a particularly bad flu. the mortality rate of those going to the hospital was around 6% according to the CDC.

it would not be 100 times worse than the flu. we have so much data on covid19 now, and nothing has really changed since the cruise ships, which was basically a free experiment for the world that has been promptly ignored over and over.
It have a hard time taking this at face value. It says nothing about government as a concept and everything about “incumbent parties”.

In other words, people from another generation, with ideas that don’t align with modern life aren’t trusted by the remaining population.

For years, prior to mobile gadgets, one incumbent party has failed to expand its base as it dies, the other has absorbed it, while pushing away progressive voices.

That has little to do with mobile internet, and the entire premise that a new technology has done what humans have been doing for generations is nonsense.

Maybe the technology kicked it into overdrive but the historical record shows it’s been held to an arbitrary check based upon flimsy rhetoric, delusions of grandeur, mass indoctrination behaviors.

The need for governance isn’t in question. That isn’t going anywhere. It’s the benchmark for what that governance should look like that’s being challenged.
They can also change it back any time they wish and on an app by app basis.
This seems like a nonstarter until they can ensure that a hydrogen-based economy does not adversely impact the earth's ozone layer.

Thank you Peter for doing this!

My company's lawyers are getting ready to file for AOS along with EAD and AP. I have plans to travel to abroad in Feb (I have a valid H1B visa). My understanding is that AP applications will be denied if it's still pending during the travel.

Can the AP be re-filed in this case? Are there additional fee for refiling?

USCIS website states a 3-8 month adjudication period for AP and a much longer timeframe for EAD. What happens if you switch employers during this time? Do these applications have to be re-filed?
This has been my experience as well. One thing I'm missing right now are the crazy random ideas that people say jokingly but then someone takes seriously and turns into a product feature.
Healthy skepticism is not only easy to teach but easy to drill, and yet I remember no time in my early education that it was even a topic in class, except maybe tangentially - a short story theme, a blurb about a famous scientist or inventor. I doubt that has changed.
That seems like it'd be a tough standard to apply in practice -- how do you prove intent?

Nemo: Data Discovery at Facebook
Affordable because Facebook is subsidizing it with a shitload of money. I don't think that is a good case for demanding independence from Facebook.

Also, then don't go standalone. Yeah it's a nice feature. Facebook paid for it.

I’m responding to “I believe that this movement has made our society more racist and divided than it was before.”
Effectively this means the parent thinks that no movement should be made at all, ergo the status quo should continue.
You can debate the merits of the demands that BLM puts forth but how on earth is this not implying that the protests in response to police killings are making society more racist?
To be fair a lot of Christians do the same and explain away contradictions in the bible as being simply "metaphors".

As more people become scientifically literate hopefully it will push religions to adopt a more rational interpretation of their beliefs.
Good luck cancelling pretty much any service in Germany without literally sending them a letter in the mail, regardless of how you signed up.
From an immigration standpoint, it appears absolutely doable, using a combination of O-1 and E-2 (and maybe even H-1B) visas. Email me if you would like to discuss in more detail.
> Whereas [1] says among job board postings, C++ is about as popular as JS, and Java is 1.7x more popular than JS.

I think it's questionable whether job posting are more representative of working programmers. Arguably they're less representative. Job postings are unfilled jobs, so technically they represent exactly zero programmers. And many job postings are never filled.

> Perhaps the holders of StackOverflow accounts aren't representative of the profession as a whole?

Agreed, but unfortunately I can't think of a better source of data offhand.

> I could certainly believe people who were programming professionally before SO existed, and who have decades of experience, would have gotten good at solving problems without asking for help.

I don't agree with the assumptions here. As an experienced developer, I ask for help all the time. I'm not an expert on every possible subject, and anyway, tech changes. Also, not everyone on Stack Overflow is asking for help. Some have to be offering help, otherwise nobody would go there.
Rust's standard library is intentionally kept small since it's initially not always obvious what the best solution is and the stability guarantee makes it the wrong place for evolving, diverse or opinionated APIs.

E.g. the async ecosystem offers you to pick between runtimes of different complexity and tradeoffs. Std only picked up the essential traits that allow other crates to interoperate with each other and the language itself to define async functions.
Learn cj date and codd those days before even oracle is a thing. It is such a hard sell we have to go through IMS and network db and the only rdb is dbase II. At least we get db2 before we do foxbase.
Do you know if politicians are thinking about raising the bar for these polluting industries ? like requiring a lot more filtering, enforcing solutions to divert pollutants from getting out at all ?
Yes, that's the real reasons. But by 'in-world' I meant something that could be explained within the story/world-building to justify/explain it away.
Not really, it works really well in my team.

Usually Mondays and Fridays are no-meeting focus days, so they are easiest to wfh on. The "team-building and fun" events are all crammed on the same days when you have meetings for which you'd usually come into the office anyway.

JavaScript You Need to Know for React
SEPA direct debit? First time I hear that anyone is using this for subscriptions, aren't you from Germany? :-) SEPA direct debit is also used here (Slovakia) but usually to pay for internet/phone/electricity/ and other bills, you basically give them a mandate to draw up to a certain amount and you can revoke it anytime.
Debit (or less common credit) cards are I think pretty common for subscriptions but I haven't heard about any shady tactics of preventing you from unsubscribing, I guess that's because all of that is regulated. And in worst case I guess I could call my bank.
Alternatively, are there any specific resources / attorneys you recommend reaching out to for EB1 evaluations? [particularly in/around NY for my case, but I guess that's not very important anymore]
If Oracle wins the Supreme Court case against Google, aren't all these "like S3" or S3 API compatible solutions (whether block storage competitors or file systems) at risk?
This is an interesting case for error-handling, because a) it can happen virtually anywhere, so handling it with Result would add huge API overhead in terms of ergonomics (given that most code never really has to think about it), yet b) it's very important that it is able to be handled in certain kinds of system contexts, which panics are not designed to facilitate. Most error cases seem to fall neatly into one camp or the other (something you always want to explicitly handle, or something where you just want to abort), but this one doesn't.

handle_alloc_error seems to do well enough as a workaround, but (from my superficial reading of the GitHub thread) it feels like just a very specific "poor-man's try/catch" for this one particular case. It feels like a workaround.

In general I'm a big fan of Result/panic in place of traditional exceptions, but this usecase makes it really quite unideal
That is commonly believed, yes - it has brought together countries that had been in a bitter war less than 50 years earlier, and may well have preserved the peace.

> you're not going to get the existing billion people in the online world

Your original point, and my response, were both on how an individual can escape the misinformation cesspools of Facebook and Twitter.

Of course I agree it's much harder to solve the problem at the societal scale.
Probably. Although it's worth saying that phones are the PCs of 10 years ago, whereas games consoles are still just games consoles.

Consider that the profit margin for a train line might be something like a few percent, and that's for a capital intensive industry, these companies charge 30% for what?

This is why they should regulate so that no product, where it can be reasonably applied, should have a single app store. If you want to pay more for a better service that's fine, but with no competition it's just a racket.
Go through an experienced attorney you trust. It's pretty easy for attorneys to find good attorneys even if outside their area of expertise.

The military isn't for everyone, but I know plenty of people that came from all walks of life that joined for a myriad of reasons. The military is first and foremost about providing economic means for those that need a step out of their circumstances. You can agree, or disagree. The reality is most people argue college is the answer. Not everyone can get into school, and most won't get scholarships, lest we even look at the issues with post college placement.

The military is an option, one that is good for many. It can provide, shelter, food, generous pay, healthcare, and set you up with fully paid college.

Most of these things are readily available to well off individuals, so it's less targeting poor people as it is giving them an option they otherwise don't have.
i got the same issue a few weeks ago, account is almost 2 years old yet they decided to lock it (my following count was set to 0 and i could not tweet anymore), with only way to unlock it being giving them my phone number

however, i managed to unlock it somehow, first i sent them a trouble ticket asking why i could not tweet anymore (which immediately got me an email that said my account was locked for "suspicious activity" and that i needed to confirm my identity with phone number), then i requested all the data they had on me through the profile options, waited 3 days for them to do the archive then when i logged back in to download it they would only ask for a recaptcha challenge to unlock my account

perhaps they consider bots unable to request gdpr data ?
