I believe this is a misquote.

It's also a morally horrific line of argument. Like saying you shouldn't care about shooting civilians because bad people in the past have used human shields as a war tactic.

These are not imagined people being hurt, spun out of whole cloth.
There are a few different types. One type blows air out "across rocks" to warm them up, and then reverses the fan pulling air in "across the same rocks" I simplified a lot in the above, but the idea should be clear - there is some mixing of streams in this style.
I meant the internal auto increment id field - not the actual user id.

I think I just proved my point here.
> I have seen many people try to solve the "too many requests" problem by slowing expanding rest responses into "god" objects.

Fair point.

But I ask my question again, differently worded: how does Graphql solve this? Why does GraphQL solve "many requests" and why can't you solve or avoid this in REST.
Not true. The Athenians didn't vote at all. They selected their politicians by lot: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sortition?oldformat=true#Ancie...

"The Athenians believed sortition to be democratic but not elections[5] and used complex procedures with purpose-built allotment machines (kleroteria) to avoid the corrupt practices used by oligarchs to buy their way into office."

"In Athens, to be eligible to be chosen by lot, citizens self-selected themselves into the available pool, then lotteries in the kleroteria machines. The magistracies assigned by lot generally had terms of service of 1 year. A citizen could not hold any particular magistracy more than once in his lifetime, but could hold other magistracies. All male citizens over 30 years of age, who were not disenfranchised by atimia, were eligible. Those selected through lot underwent examination called dokimasia in order to avoid incompetent officials. "

Understanding the Raison D'être of the Mighty Queue
I buy fresh Roma Tomatoes at Costco all the time. They come in some horrible plastic packaging that keeps them safe and with the vines still on. Not as good as home grown, but not terrible.

I think they're picked right when they start to ripen then finish in the box/transit.
As if "the West" and the US in particular don't lie left and right if it helps to promote their agenda. It's a simple matter of who aligns with whom.
In what way does thousands of people self-reporting new and ongoing medical issues after a positive COVID diagnosis not constitute evidence that this is happening?

Clinical trials are not the only form of evidence.
Would also expect there to be some kind of "drive in" vaccination points, like there are in some communities for tests.
Does it need to be an option ? I'm accustomed to using host and it just does it by default if it is given an IP as argument.
You're right, it's not stealing. You have chosen to give it away for use in this manner.

But the other side of the coin is that this is increasingly unsustainable. Free/open source software development works best when it is based upon mutual self-interest fostering cooperation and collaboration. At the extreme, it is increasingly an altruistic/parasitic arrangement (on the part of producer and consumer, respectively) where the producer gets zero benefit from their efforts but the consumer benefits greatly.

It has always been the case that there are more consumers than producers. That's an inevitability, and the number of consumers isn't itself the problem. But this simply cannot be sustainable at scale due to the limitations of available developer resources and ongoing requirement for unavoidable commitment. It becomes exploitative because it sets up the expectation and demands that people work for free, writing code, reviewing code, maintaining infrastructure, supporting users etc.. This is one reason I've dialled back all my participation; it ends up costing me greatly in time, resources and stress, for almost zero benefit. At some point, free is actually too costly, and paying for products and services is fairer all around. We have, after all, invented a monetary system, companies and employment laws to ensure that people are properly compensated for their efforts.
Seems like a good time to own shares in literally anything. The DJI is going to open up 1,500 points at least.
Kind of, but two things: (1) the markets are irrational. And (2) real events (eg 100% certainty that we have a vaccine passing phase 3 right now) are different than 90% chance that we’ll have a vaccine in the next y months.
There are two types of people, broadly speaking: the ones that keep nothing always throw everything away and format their computers once a year, and the ones that hoard everything like an archive.

Although I am proudly the second type, I understand that many people are the first type. They don't really care that much about this stuff that to me feels fundamental, so they have no issue with things not really being theirs.

And in a way, they are right. While year after year I'm burdened by being the archivist of my own possessions, there are many people that just live unencumbered by such things.
Outbound licenses (say, the GPL or proprietary) and inbound license for contributions are orthogonal. If you intend to dual license outbound, you need to clarify that in your inbound CLA.
Not to me.

The browser executes it as code in a sandbox, that is dedicated to that website. No harm was done outside the sandbox (if there was, it would be a client flaw); it's just the server doing bad things in the sandbox the client "allocated" to it.
I already offer both sponsorship as well as tailored consulting, but I haven't found any success in trying to sell that in response to issues. The moment I mention that I can provide commercial support, they tend to become silent. Maybe it's viable if you have a truly massively successful product like Redis or something, but it hasn't been for me at least.

Because if you want to enter the mobile market you HAVE to? This “the customers will choose the best” thing has never been true, even in its source. The context is “in a fair competition between competing products” (which won’t be true again, because humans are not rational - otherwise marketing would not matter)

Also, it’s not like I have any chance ever to compete with Apple, even if I were to be the cleverest people on Earth.
FL was allowed to process and count mail in votes early (they always deal with a lot of absentee votes b/c many people have their residence there to avoid state taxes). Once polls closed they were able to transfer those with the early batches of day of votes. Because absentee was such a big thing this year, many states were also telling the networks/reporters what each batch of counts was made up of (absentee vs. in person). Even in GOP areas, absentee went heavily towards Dem.

The GOP legislature in PA denied the SOS request to begin processing absentee early. It was known for weeks that the count would not be done until Friday or possibly the weekend. Because the pandemic has been politicized, many GOP voters saw in person voting as a statement. Dem voters just wanted to vote.

There also wasn't really a gradual shift. Day of gets counted more quickly because states use machines that take the the vote directly from the user at the time. Absentee takes longer because the votes are opened, verified (some states check signatures, but I think all make sure the it's not a double vote, etc...), cured, and then the ballot is ran through a flattener then vote counter. I saw a story that this took longer in PA, because many of the votes had been sitting folded up for almost a month by the time they were opened.
You may find motivation to advise startups and give your input with respect to certain situations, problems, bottlenecks, product, contracts, deals, roadmaps, etc.

For example, you say you have been lucky at a few startups. The common position here, even for early employees, is that they will see no financial benefit from the company unless they're the founders. How can people be as 'lucky' as you were?

There are way more examples of people being burned and seeing no return than there are examples of people who have been 'lucky', and having gone through it multiple times, you may know things others don't.

My point is, you probably have knowledge that could be helpful to others. You could chime in the several Ask HN threads, or write blog posts, etc.

It would help others avoid some mistakes and amortize the mistakes you've made and what you learned from them by trial and error. For example, sometimes I'll put a reply with a bunch of links to other replies on a topic[0].

Andreesen Horowitz primarily focuses on early stage startups. A company with 5mm in investment isn’t able to spend 1mm on a single open source license.
Yes, I think you have missed the point, as the severity of the problem is orthogonal to the issue of whether we have enough information to rank browsers. If they were not orthogonal, then severity of consequences would be a parameter in formal statistical methods for evaluating our confidence in the ranking.

Let's take your analogy a step further. Does it follow that the US is the most likely to be the next user of nuclear weapons? Does it follow that Japan is most likely to be the next target? (I'm sure someone is thinking that at least one of those outcomes is quite likely, but note that I wrote "does it follow...", not "how likely is it..." because the issue is what one can deduce from the evidence presented in the above post.)
Since the days of phone phreaking, we've known in-band signalling is just a terrible idea. Any time a legal message token/signal/sequence in your data payload can escape data to metadata/code status, encapsulation complexity goes way up and at least one implementer is going to screw something up in a bad way. XSS was entirely predictable from the design of <script> tags and onload, onclick, etc. handler HTML tag attributes.

One alternative would be to force all <script> tags to come immediately after the <html> tag (before any <head>, <body>, <style>, etc. tag), and have it be a fatal error disabling scripting if a script tag came after any other html tag except for <html>. You'd also need to reverse the way onlead, onclick, etc. handlers are set, having them set from the script side instead of setting handlers via html tag attributes. If you were extremely careful about the design, you might be able to have scripts opt-in individual functions to being handlers specified in HTML tag attributes, but the corner cases get hairy very quickly. If you need nice general libraries handling clicks, etc, it's probably best to have your scripts scan for the tags to have handlers attached rather than having the tags decide their own handlers.

The are some other solutions involving unambiguous length-prefixed type-tagged sections clearly separating text and code, but those are better suited to non-textual formats, and a weird hybrid text-and-binary format (such as PDF) is another type of security minefield.

Edit: formatting. Also, one of my favorite classes was a retrospective look at a variety of computer systems, critiquing very good and very bad design decisions. We looked at X11, zlib, Therac-25, Ariane 5, etc.
This is a bad idea.
All licenses released under GPLvX or later where X<4 will be not affected by this as the company could always pick X.
It would further increase license fragmentation in the GPL sphere which is one of the reasons why BSD style licenses became more popular.
I'd recommend looking into Rob Landley and why he created 0BSD. [1]

The whole reason why we are in this mess and why GPL died is because the people behind GPL wanted to push their political views using the weight of persons using GPLv2 or later.
The Linux kernel reacted by switching GPLv2 only.
The only reason why would might want to name it GPLv4 is to use the weight of code of GPLvX or later people. Don't do that
In addition some of you clauses have been shown to be easily enforceable by laws like GDPR and attempting to use contract is a crutch. They way to some of your points is phrased might be unenforceable in court and might void the complete license if it is ever testing in court. -> very bad

> The article does not explain what the value of pen and paper has over a digital note pad. It just declares it has one.

Would some handwavy explanation be better? Sometimes all we have is an observation and it can be valuable to share and discuss it without immediately making up some explanation.

Yes, perhaps it has to do with tactile feedback, immediacy, not having to brace for annoying notifications and nagging of digital devices (new message, new update available, extra information filling up the screen, having to "buffer" what's behind windows in a "mental stack").

But who knows, this is speculation, we don't understand the brain well enough to say why precisely this is how it is.

> so even the people who do become immune may not stay that way forever...

In my country there have been hundreds of thousands of confirmed Covid infections. There have been <100 confirmed re-infections.

It's very early to draw the conclusion that people in general don't build up lasting immunity, and there is more than enough data to support that most people do build up immunity of several months at least. If the latter wasn't true you'd see much more re-infections.
Well, let's stop consuming fish, because maritime ecosystems, stop meat because animal cruelty and global warming, stop soy because rainforests and genetic manipulation, stop rice because methane emissions, stop potatoes because neophytes in most of the world and stop lettuce because low-calorie waste of precious land.

I guess that leaves us with wheat and soylent green...
I know this is a case of using the wrong tool for the job, but about once every 3 months or so, I find myself using dig to troubleshoot an issue, only to find out I had a hosts file entry and that's why it was/wasn't working.

I've been trying to force myself to use curl --resolve rather than using hosts file entries (where it's suitable) but for some reason I just can't seem to force myself to get into the habit of getent vs dig.

What would save me wasted time is an asterisk next to an entry or a reminder at the bottom of the output (or in stderr) which indicates that there is a hosts file entry which matches, but it was "ignored" (and even what it's value is).

I understand if it's not something you want to support, but it's definitely a pain point for myself and quite a few ops people I've shoulder surfed over the years.
If you want to dual license, you probably should have a contributor license agreement. (It may be possible to relicense absent such an agreement, especially if it's permissively licensed, but a CLA certainly makes things clearer.)

The michigan case was dismissed because the counting had completed, and thus the case was without object. Not because it was without merit.
This may be true for urban/suburban US/Europe/China/India, but this is not true for large parts of the world.

There are parts of rural US/Australia for example where despite people having cars, they may need to take a plane to get to a vaccine treatment centre with enough density to get stock. They may not be able to afford that travel even if the vaccine is free.

Much of the African population is spread over small communities where roads may not be reliable, let alone car access. If your minimum distributable unit is 10k vaccines, as it looks like it could be to begin with, that rules out a significant number of the population.
That's not very pricey as healthcare costs go.

I get Stelara injections every three months; one milliliter is $10k, and that can't be spread out across anyone else.
Not op, but hardware and UX-wise they do a great job. Photo-taking is especially good which is pretty important on a mobile. Also, their phones will be supported for a remarkable number of years, while retaining their price on second hand markets.

It doesn’t excuse them from letting me use my phone as I want to.
Sure that's the point. Most of the time you can rely on electric, when something unusual happens or you're doing a road trip you use gas.

The Haskell DVC system that pijul "sort of" evolved from (theory of patches-wise mostly, just being careful given the stringent IP/credit language afoot), darcs, had this sort of semantic concept. It could track, e.g., symbol renames very early on in darcs' history. I haven't looked at darcs in many years, but it would be unsurprising if it had evolved to similar generality like pluggable byte ranges.

Ditto.

Plus the mental clarity is great and the general calmness.

The hardest part (for me) is not to get too much into the culture. In the end as a middle aged man, I’m not going pro, I’m looking to feel great though.

Nice progress btw, I too am 2 years in.

It's amusing how you put "cellular immunity" in scare quotes. It's not a new or novel concept, but an extremely well understood mechanism that has been taught to immunology first years for decades. That a coronavirus should exhibit a cellular immune response should be the baseline assumption, rather than the inverse.
I'm sure it isn't, but this sounds like GPT-3.
>The vast majority of iOS users appreciate the security, safety, and stability provided by Apple’s restrictions.

How does restricting app installs to one store provide extra security, safety, and stability?

Surely the OS will enforce the same security (e.g. sandbox) on apps regardless of provenance.

You're mostly talking about trademarks at that point, not copyright.
> Yet, apple should not be able to disallow me from using my device in any way I want to

And my point is that random application developers should not disallow me from using my device in any way I want to, nor they should be allowed to make my device work against my interests.

So far, as a user, for the last 25 years, Apple has not disallowed me as much as random developers have, and in fact Apple has fought that fight on my behalf.

What Apple is doing by limiting developers powers is 100% in my interest since I don't care about developers that are hostile to me.

I 100% agree that I should be able to run what I want, but the other side of the story matters too. Maybe there's a technical solution? Maybe if everything was open source? Maybe better sandbox/firewalls?

I don't get it how we got here. We were allowed to play outside (East Europe) near the house when we were six. Gradually increasing the comfort perimeter as we grew up. Twelve? I could have roamed the entire city if I had enough time to get back for lunch.
So, out of 43538 participants, 94 got sick in both groups (who got vaccine and who got placebo) together, and this translates to "at least" 90% immunity, with 95% confidence interval.

Who remembers statistics well enough to reverse the calculation and find out how many people got sick in both groups? There is a definite integer answer here.
I've heard of cases where people just ripped off parts of another's work as PHD. I've never heard of someone submitting stolen work to a fellow he stole the work from. That's some A level chicanery.
No, there is no citation needed. They didn’t discover this data all in the last week.

There is some incremental work that was done toward confirming this result and typing this press release in the last week.

It’s not like they waited till last week to collect the data. They have ongoing surveillance of their entire study population.
Pretty confident it's the former, which if the case, essentially ends the pandemic in a month after it's distributed, given that the R0 would drop precipitously.

The challenge will be reconciling this with the antivax crowd given that as the vaccine rolls out the rate of infection will come down correspondingly among the whole population (including the unvaccinated). They'll immediately claim that the virus is "going away on it's own" as opposed to the truth, which is that potential spreaders are being steadily removed from the susceptible population due to the vaccine.
Why are people in the comments so interested in the reactions of stock markets? I don't understand. These are the same markets that cheer when job cuts and redundancies are announced. These are the same markets that cheer when horrible working conditions are enforced (see Tesla, Uber, Deliveroo, etc.)

Why should I take the markets seriously? It's just a bunch of rich people in the end.
And if you continue the colloquy you'll see the problem is the observers in the room were not allowed within several tens of feet of the ballots being counted, this making observation impossible.

Hence why the judge ruled to allow observers closer.
Not sure how you would practically do that. You could thwart all that with a microcode layer anyway.

I think the closest you're going to get to "verifiably secure" is an FPGA based core.
