That argument was specifically addressed ('it doesn't matter if a gay person is in the closet, they will be targeted'), but you're ignoring it.

Also, there's a qualitative difference between harassing someone (purposeful infliction of harm on an individual) and mere dislike of their non-harmful consensual activity with others.
This is such a vague reddit piece it's very hard to understand if the car is truly bricked or just needs to be towed to a place with signal.

As a broader issue independent car repair garages are dying fast as more and more cars are manufactured with inaccessible DRM coupled with very expensive handshake hardware and software only dealers can own.

This is a huge problem quite aside from the issue of what happens when a vehicle being driven can't phone home because of grid shut off etc (happening a lot in California for example), resulting in these types of incidents.

I feel new vehicles should have owner ability to shut off all out and inbound electronic communication and still function satisfactorily. An earthquake or other natural disaster is going to immobilize a lot of vehicles in potentially obstructive places if we don't think this through.
Sure, the effects of speech on the real world has always been the reason for censorship. "Ignore voices you don't like" isn't a refutation of that old and honest argument in favor of censorship, it's a refutation of the new and dishonest argument that censorship actually protects freedom of speech.

Well, it is B&W. The N here is so large that you can easily resolve the pixels that should be B&W, yet they aren't.
Quoting from the linked discussion:

> The issue with Makefiles is that well, they're not portable. I'm on Windows, and 99% of this stuff Just Works really really nicely, but that means that "just use Make" isn't a real option. I love that Rust's tooling is so cross-platform, and this is just a final pain point. The problem is hard, but it's mostly about fiddly details.

> I'm trying to figure out how good I can make this without throwing it all out and doing something else. If we never push Cargo's boundaries, it will never grow into being a good fit for these projects.

The fundamental problem with Cargo is that it's not a general-purpose build system (like, say, make). It's a black box with a bunch of hooks for achieving certain common things that the black box itself doesn't handle. As a result, every time you step out of the "supported area", it will be yet another "final pain point" & "mostly about fiddly details".

I agree make is not a good fit for a cross-platform project (nor is Meson, IMO, due to the Python dependency). But there are good (IMO) options in this area that meet your requirements (cross-platform, no external dependencies, etc). I can elaborate if you are interested.
Why, because we're myopic, so our eyes run "blur interpolate" on the image... or do those also work for people with 20/20 eye sight?
Naturally, otherwise I wouldn't have bought the Linux Unleashed book.

The outcries every time Apple does a decision in favour of their developer community, that breaks those that buy their laptops as shinny "Linux" kind of prove otherwise.

OS X just like NeXT, only cares about UNIX to the extent that brings software into the platform, not out of it, its dev stack never cared for UNIX as such.
So are you suggesting that we restrict people's civil rights based on the population density of where they happen to live? Should we also apply stricter limits to free speech if more other people are nearby?
Guava cannot not be viewed as a stable platform library, with three major releases a year.
You also are dependent on parents to go see most friends, and the amount of kids nearby will be fewer. That independence doesn’t really start until 16 when you get a car. All this to say is everything comes with trade offs.
That really isn't a valid comparison.

The bombs were built specifically because scientists theorized that it would be possible to generate large bombs with their knowledge of atomic energy.

They underestimated the scale of the bombs.

Coincidentally I went through a very similar process debugging memory usage of an internal application with guppy recently. One thing I learned is that file dumps and the profile browser are kindof a trap. You discard a huge amount of information when you dump the heap summary to file. The guppy docs aren't too great, but you can poke around the entire heap in detail if you break into a debugger after taking a heap snapshot. You can explore references and referrers, group objects by various categories, and inspect their values without the tedious ctypes cast trick.
A lot of people seem to think that the choice is between modern US cities (where indeed it's often hard to get around by foot or decent public transit) or the core of Amsterdam (or a number of at least parts of European cities). And that all of Asia in like Tokyo. I assure them that Jakarta and KL are not Tokyo.
Sure. Let's assume that there are top secret research programs. What this tells us is that the research had yeilded such results as

* Super High Density energy storage mechanism, that when being used actually cools down instead of heating up

* An energy source that isn't based around burning fossil fuels for propulsion, that is highly efficient.

* A device that could atleast in theory be using some kind of an inertial cancellation mechanism.

Any of this could be a solution to climate change. Why would our own governments lie and put the future of this planet in jeapordy?. Just so they can win the next war but lose a Future?.

The idea that this is some kind of a secret research project doesn't add up.
And most vehicles have methods to disable airbags when the item/person occupying the seat can not safely handle it.

But if you want to get real sad, IIRC many airbag systems are not designed with an occupant outside the parameters of a typical adult male in mind. Some modern systems are getting better about this, but if you're too short, too tall, a woman, or other-wise-outside-of-the-norm, good luck.

I don't really consider semver to be in conflict with build numbers or version numbers for marketing purposes.

My favored scheme is roughly like so. Automatically assign a build number to every build for tracking purposes. Assign a semver number to every version you publish in order to give some concise signaling to operations folks and technical consumers about how the version behaves compared to the previous one(s). And, when applicable, assign a more creative version number for marketing purposes. I've always liked year-based numbering schemes for that purpose. It's immediately meaningful, and encourages staying up-to-date by giving a reminder that you're still on a version that came out 4 years ago.
+1 @ tailscale, one of the best products I have come across in the last few years (!)
From what I understand the violent rioting is a small minority and distinctly not the objective of the greater BLM movement.

Holocaust deniers turning out to commit hate crimes, encourage violence, and going on to aim for violence towards minorities is well-documented to be a significant proportion of that group.
That is the trade off you made. It might not be right for the next person. There are things you cannot do with a rental car (off road). There are times when you cannot get a rental car when you want it. If you have hundreds of dollars per months that you are not spending anyway it might be worth it. (though my yearly costs for my truck that I drive a few times a year are much less than $100/month - it is paid for years ago though)
It’s unfortunate that this topic has such stigma around it that many researchers are afraid to study it for fear it’ll delegitimise them or ruin their career.

You may be surprised at how many people you know have had experiences of their own, or know someone close who has, but don’t talk about it for fear of judgement.

For all the hundreds of thousands of anecdotal reports that exist, and documented cases involving hundreds of witnesses, there is so little research into the phenomenon. Most of it is dismissed as mass hysteria, rather than investigated to determine if that assumption is true.

That said, it’s not exactly a phenomenon that can easily be studied - the results are not repeatable. As Carl Sagan said, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I think we need to stop calling it a conspiracy theory, and instead call it just a theory. Remember there was a time when it was considered a conspiracy to say the the earth revolves around the sun.

Yeah, its been very clear to everyone that there is a huge push lately among the left towards censorship and anti-free speech. Their main argument is "people might not believe our side and our truth and might instead believe obvious lies that we say are not true."

Dangerous.
This makes me think of RV's or campers.

A fifth wheel costs about $35,000. Many of my neighbors have models that cost $50,000+. You need to factor in renting out the campsite for a week, fuel to tow your camper there (it might be 100-200 miles away), and the fact that you need a large pickup truck to do the towing.

You could rent a lot of hotels for that kind of money, or rent a cabin to stay in, and drive there in your car. "Roughing it" seems expensive.
Actually, V+ (the correct name is Vbus) not supplying any current is the correct initial state for a USB-C socket. It instead provides a small current on each of the two CC pins (usually through a pull-up resistor on each pin), and only after it detects that the other side is drawing that current (usually through a 5.1kΩ resistor to GND on each pin) will it supply power on Vbus.
Oh sure, I can do that. The output actually look the same because I used the output as mockups but hey...I can easily add a real PDF as well.
Yeah, I know NumPy, but what I really enjoy about APL/J that you can only get from those languages is "notation as a tool of thought", something is lost in high level expressive languages.

>That's not the only thing. It's also how fast they can read/understand the program code.

What are you doing? Speed reading? Even 2xing the reading time with verbosity is not a factor if lack of verbosity forces the reader to switch context multiple times in order to elucidate meaning.

>Sure, we do that for software also - we document things outside of the code. For example in a wiki, a README.md or sometimes even just above the code as comment/docs. But that's not what I was talking about, right?

Major difference. In math it's required. In programming it's recommended and rarely done. When it is done, it's rarely done in a form that's as complete or as detailed as math. YOu get an outline at best. Programmers are expected to read code without documentation because program writers are too lazy to write documentation.

SO what I'm saying is put your documentation into the code itself. Self documenting code with readable names as opposed to elegant.

>So you are fine if a developer does e.g. `c := (some super complex expression) // find relevant customer` and then goes on to use just `c` everywhere in their code instead of `relevantCustomerBlaBlaBla`?

relevantCustomerMetric is way better than c everywhere. Autocomplete should alleviate the pain of typing. Not every programmer arrives at the variable where it was incepted so they can't see the comment.

>Also, mathematicians don't always do that. Sometimes they just say "let x be [insert complex equation]". See for yourself in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conformal_geometry or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_surface

Isn't "let x be" english? What's the purpose of those words? Clarity.
There is a long history of Whites forcibly removing Native children from Native families. So it's nowhere near that simple.

Though to be clear, I didn't post this article because of that aspect of it. I posted it because it has interesting content about the way the court system works:

The 5th U.S. Court of Appeals last fall made the unusual decision to vacate one of its rulings that upheld the Indian Child Welfare Act.

The court announced it would review the case, Brakeen v. Bernhardt, “en banc,” a proceeding in which the full court rehears a case that was decided by a three-judge panel. An en banc review is a rare legal procedure reserved for maintaining uniformity of the court’s decisions or to show the proceeding involves a question of exceptional importance.

If the full 5th Circuit Court strikes down the Indian Child Welfare Act, the case will undoubtedly head to the Supreme Court.

I had never heard of this procedure and it really caught my attention as something interesting for people to know about and try to understand.
Eh, no it isn't arrogance. It is math and physics.

You're still looking at hundreds of years or more for a nearby two-way trip.

It is far more practical to send out probes one-way (which is quite slow), and then build the infrastructure at the destination to receive transmitted mind-states.

The initial probes take a long time to reach their destinations, because they have to have means to deaccelerate. The faster you accelerate, the more mass you have to carry with you to deaccelerate.

Those who cannot compartmentalize seem to think it would be a violation of “free speech” for me to kick nazis out of my dinner party, for hacker news to ban trolls, etc.

In many ways, the unified absolute freedom of speech camp, no one should ever prevent nazis from posting on hacker news because it is a limitation on the nazis “freedom of speech” are arguing for a substantially more invasive understanding of freedom of speech: I am required to support, fund, enable and amplify speech that I find abhorrent and destructive.

By that logic, deleting spam from my blog comment section violates their conception of “freedom of speech”.

Well, we generally do not prohibit abusive speech.

What's prohibited is targeting people with speech who do not wish to participate (or who cannot, statutorily). Plenty of adults freely choose to engage in abusive relationships with one another and of course they are free to do so provided the other party is a willing participant.

The same is true of non-abusive language. Consider a simple romantic overture.

While I do agree somewhat with this article, keep in mind that ownership of things results in different realized costs. Owning a house is a very different cost than owning a car, not only in terms of longevity but usage and storage. The fact I don't have a place to "store" my house does not affect the resale value, compared to that of a car that was only stored in a garage.

If you want to maximize value of something, finding alternative uses for that item usually results in lower cost of ownership. My yard currently has about 200 square feet of garden in it, which provides a substantial amount of food to eat, at no additional cost than the water and minimal gardening supplies to keep it going. My kids can also use the yard, along side my garden, maximizing value. Once my house is paid off, my yard has a realized cost of close to zero. Friends can setup a tent in the yard with an air mattress instead of needing a guest room.

That fancy mini-van? I can also be the person that rents that out as a potential income source. Suddenly, something that was a liability is now a revenue stream, and I still have the convenience of using it basically whenever I want.

Most things you'll find you use only 5% of the time you own them, but their cost is low so they get no mention or attention. Other things are stupid to justify in terms of financial costs. Kids are expensive, and looking at them as an asset or a liability is laughable.

Instead of figuring out the percentage of time the item will be used, try and instead maximize value from it. Split the cost of a lawn mower with your neighbor. Rent out your car on a car-share app. Car pool to school and work. When trying to purchase a big item, try and figure out what you really need, and fight your ego. Can you buy it used? Is a specific color really worth thousands of dollars? Life isn't something that can be explained through an algorithm, don't try and run every decision through it.

My opinion is that, in its current form, tailscale essentially provides a cross-platform super-configurable discovery and key-management layer to a P2P network overlay on top of the public internet, secured by Wireguard.

It's like stunnel or ghosttunnel but for L3, and that let's you replace the gargantuan IPSec with something that's way simpler and nimbler like wireguard.

As for LAN vs BeyondCorp... tailscale has BeyondCorp influences. It uses federated identity (OpenID for instance) and device credentials (see: wireguard crypto-routing) to let you in on any mesh network that you have access to be [on]. It is not something novel but super complicated to do it as simply as possible. And wireguard is a key enabler for just that.

BeyondCorp is obviously much more than just SSO. You might also be interested in: https://www.beyondcorp.com/
macOS makes 96dpi displays look bad. Text is fuzzy (by design) because Apple’s fontographers believe preserving the form of type is more important than maximising clarity by snapping form to the pixel grid, which is Microsoft’s rival philosophy. At higher resolutions this technique isn’t needed.

For comparison, my Windows box has two HP Z27Q displays. These are both expensive 5K 27-inch panels that each need two DP1.2 cables (in MST mode) to drive them at 60Hz. In between the two is Dell’s latest 43-inch 4K IPS panel. The HP displays run at 192dpi/200% while the Dell runs at 96dpi/100%. All 3 displays are stunning. While the HP displays are noticeably sharper and are a pleasure to read and edit text on so is the Dell: the difference in Windows really doesn’t matter all that much. If I were to lose either models of monitor in a freak UPS explosion I wouldn’t be wanting sympathy for my very first-world-problem.

And I need to give massive props to Microsoft for the well-thought-out multi-DPI support in Windows 10. My only qualm is I can never get the DPI override settings to work (and mstsc.exe needs more display settings besides a single checkbox). Stuff like that is why I don’t feel like I can comfortably switch to a Linux desktop right now. For example, last time I checked none of the production-quality display servers support mouse cursor scaling - is that still the case?
It's either companies that produce hardware or that offer some sort of support for hardware. Or that use specialized hardware in a certain way.

I would guess that the optimal state would be at or just below replacement fertility rates (because immigration will bump your population growth up a bit).

People are going to have kids regardless. So, the question we're really asking is, should we structure things so that people have time to raise those kids that they are already going to have. I haven't reviewed the literature, but I'd guess kids who have their parents present in their life have better outcomes.
