The Federalist Papers are widely known and covered in school.

But there is no "supposed to be taught" -- anyone who knows American history knows that, for federal reasons, educational curricula are set at state or even local levels. Your school district appears to be highly unusual... and I'm pretty amazed at the concept of teaching this in middle school. May I ask where you went, out of both curiosity and envy? ;)

The relevant Wikipedia article even states:

> ...the essays they wrote have largely fallen into obscurity. Unlike, for example, The Federalist No. 10 written by James Madison, none of their works are mainstays in college curricula or court rulings. [1]

You're starting to get it. People were dying, in increasing numbers, before lockdowns. During lockdowns, the numbers of deaths went down.

So how could anyone, in good faith, argue that lockdown death numbers are somehow similar to Covid-19 death numbers?

Expecting syntax to solve all your problems probably isn't very realistic. But at least as far as facilitating editor movement goes, matching braces work really well.
Fuck yes I'll pick the slightly better trackpad. To a point anyway. Sitting for upwards of 8 hours a day typing code can be a depressing life trap to find yourself in. If every time I touched my trackpad I cringed because it feels like sandpaper, works like shit, and might not even have good first party driver support, only to be consoled by the the thought that I could install Windows on it if I wanted to, I'd probably not be too satisfied.

I have an expensive chair, that I could only really get fixed by the company that made it. I could have a shitty chair that hurts my ass, messes with my posture, costs 1/12th the price, that I could sit in and re-assure myself that I'm free to get commodity parts anywhere I want, but I'd prefer not to do that unless I had no choice.
Exit polling showed that a higher proportion of back and minority voters voted for Trump in 2020 than in 2016.

However, since exit polling only counts those who vote on election day, and far more Democrats voted early or by mail than Republicans, we don't know to what extent those numbers are representative of voters as a whole.

I'd love to see that analysis, but AFAIK no one has done it yet.
Sorry, I don't agree. Billions of dollars lost are still billions of dollars lost. I agree that some people will want to know in percentages of this or that, and you are clearly one of those people. But you're not their only reader, and I think it's reasonable and appropriate for people to have an emotional response to somebody gambling and losing the equivalent of the lifetime earnings of a couple thousand people.

I think populist dot press might be Bannon's own site. It heavily promotes his content, his weekly live stream, and it ties in to his social media on other platforms.

Even if it's not his own, this is his official Facebook page from which Bannon hosts his weekly live stream.

Here, you can see his "War Room" video series in its entirety: https://populist.press/americas-voice-war-room/
None of your links are from “a few weeks ago”. There was one non-BLM-affiliated protest in Minnesota in 2015 where this was chanted for a few minutes. It was roundly criticized, and the people involved clarified that they did not want to have anyone killed, but just wanted police to receive the same punishment for murder as anyone else. Clearly the chant itself was stupidly inflammatory, however angry the protestors might have been, and it does not accurately reflect anyone’s serious beliefs, which is why it has not been repeated or endorsed by other protestors.

cf. e.g.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/fact-checking-trump-s-refe...

The way Trump and others have described this is essentially a lie.

I am flattered that my balls have impressed you.
I'll add to this that because AWS is simply piecing different technologies together under the hood, there are a lot of data type issues.

Another example is that some date/time columns got brought in and crawled as a string. That's a bummer because obviously you want to do native operations of these, datediff, datepart, etc. without having to cast all over the place. We manually set them to timestamp and they work perfect (awesome!), even in Athena, so we thought the problem was solved.

However, once we did anything with those columns in Glue ETL, those fields got set as nulls.

The problem can be fixed of course, but these types of issues happen fairly often and they quietly fail (no errors, just values set to null).
Next to the trashcan on the top right of the network tab, there's a button, which when hovered, "ignores the resource cache when loading resources." I think this what you're referencing.

What do you think should be done with the activists who erected a guillotine in front of Jeff Bezos' house in DC? Should they be put in jail for attempted murder? The only possible interpretation is that they literally intend to drag Bezos from his house and publicly behead him.

How about Kathy Griffin, who posted a video of herself beheading Trump in effigy? She still has a Facebook account as far as I can tell.
> Does your right to spend a $1B on political advertising drown out my political speech?

On this specific one, it’s not a matter of drowning you out, it’s being able to compete with someone else spending $1B endorsing the opposite opinion. Or more importantly, being able to pay for your message to be distributed rather than having to own a media empire to get it published.

If it weren’t for the Citizens United decision being decided in the correct direction, you’d be a the media landscape would be a slave to whoever owns it. People or organizations that make their money elsewhere would be stifled from expressing their opinions through advertising purchases.
Don’t forget that client IP geolocation gives coarse location, so they have your timestamped track log, too.

Its even worse, after Apple's service recovered I was left with what seemed to be a corrupted installer/updater that kept throwing "An error occurred while installing the selected updates" when I clicked on the upgrade now. I had to boot in recovery mode, run "csrutil disable" so I can delete the update directory from Library/Updates.

I keep both the federalist papers, and the antifederalist papers on my bookshelf. I bought them when Trump was elected because I wanted to see whether the founders thought that there was something in the system that would protect us if a morally bankrupt person took hold the executive branch. Unfortunately, many of the federalists thought we could obviously prevent that from happening, while many of the antifederalists thought that tyrants would become the norm immediately.

They're a fun to flip through, as some of the predictions almost read like alternate history fictions, because they're just so wild.

One essay I found particularly amusing (wish I could remember which paper said it), argued that the complexity of the legislative branch was clearly intended to to create endless demand for lawyers, thus ensuring that the lawyer career path would be prestigious and well-paid forever.
Sounds very depressing. Even though we still have growing worldwide rates of CO2 emissions which would bring us to the dead end.

I’m so happy to see XKCD 927, because it was my immediate first thought. It is one of the few XKCD comics I know by number, and while witty I do feel it gets misused in thought-terminating ways sometimes. Still, I feel validated in my knee-jerk reaction that it would be the top XKCD comic on the list.
I don't like this behaviour at all, and find it frustrating at times (e.g. apps slow to launch when my internet connection drops out temporarily).

Having said that, it's not enough to get me to switch platforms. I'm able to work around the problem (using Little Snitch, see other replies), and there are a ton of factors that go into my decision of which hardware/OS to use, all of them involving tradeoffs. The only viable alternatives, Windows and Linux, have their downsides too. Some people prefer those over macs and that's fine; it's a choice people make based on their particular situation.
You seem to be writing in good faith, but it is mind-boggling to me how anyone could take what Bannon said as anything other than a metaphor.

Ironically, to me the Sartre quote better applies to your own comment than Bannon's bit.

Perhaps this is the rhetorical version of "the dress". (We seem to be stuck in general in some sort of political version of the dress.)
Most larger companies are the first to outsource work if it isn't a core competency or a core strategic need. This is even where you can find great product ideas to solve problems for other companies while getting paid to build a solution. So I wouldn't say just because they can afford it they will bring it in house, generally I found that not to be true. Of course there are exceptions, one is large tech companies which have a tendency to bring lots of stuff in house even if they really shouldn't.

As for finding my first clients, I turned to companies I had worked for prior, turned to friends who still worked at other companies to get my foot in the door. I started meeting as many people as possible and started speaking at local and regional events as often as I could. I'd sign up at the chamber of commerce and see what new companies were coming in, opening facilities, plants etc and see if there was a vendor list I could get on etc. A hint I learned, being on the vendor list for a large company even if you have never delivered anything to them can give you assumed credibility. When I couldn't afford trade shows I'd volunteer for companies and go work their booth, do setup or whatever I could in exchange for getting me through the door and allowing me time to explore and network.

Also, networking outside your defined niche is still good as you build your network. I used to joke it was like the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon, I didn't have to meet my exact client but I needed to meet someone who could introduce me to another company and keep that going. Along the way you pay the kindness back with your own referrals, help etc. It is way easier to type this out than to do it, but the only way to do it is just to do it.

Similar experience. The most boring job I had was also the one I was most happy with. The domain was simple business logic with very low complexity (simple functions, mostly if-else logic - some challenges in testing, though).

I've had two highly technical engineering/math jobs, and while I loved the topic, I hated the job. Poor management, dysfunctional teams, rigid coworkers, etc. The last time I did a job hunt I explicitly did not make the problem domain a factor in the decision process.

It does make answering the "Why are you excited about working on this project?" a bit tougher, though.

Of course, let's not get into false dichotomies. Because a job doesn't sound interesting doesn't mean you'll enjoy it!
> having a Find panel with results

That feature is built into Vim with quickfix commands.

> multiple files open in multiple panes

That's also built-in.

> a file list

There's at least two built-in features that provides this, netrw and quickfix.

> list of currently changed files

That's also built-in? It's like the most basic of features.

> I use proportional fonts so VIM is out

You can use a terminal that supports it, or perhaps some NeoVim UI.
When I was a kid, I was once shocked to overhear my parents talking about someone getting fired, thinking that that meant literally setting him on fire.
You keep bringing this up. It's disingenuous considering I can google that exact phrase and find other headlines.

The fact is, these were headlines on other sites, that were then linked to populist.press (I assume Steve Bannon has some affiliation with the site).

https://web.archive.org/web/20201106150453/https://populist....

The second headline, "Calling for Execution", links to this article: https://www.thewrap.com/steve-bannon-suspended-by-twitter-af...

As such, the headline is, without question, someone else's description of the events.
I think you're underestimating the number of target between just the US and Russia. Each has approximately 1600 warheads deployed. Even with using 3 warheads per target, that means over 500 cities/targets in each country destroyed. Of course neither side would use all their active warheads on the opposing country; they would save some for other nations. Then you have to factor in British and French warheads. Israel, Pakistan, India, China and NK would all join in as well. So perhaps the African continent might be spared, and the majority of South America as well. But full scale nuclear war would eliminate North America, most of Europe, a large portion of Eurasia and the Far East.

And then what is left would have to face the fourth horsemen of the Apocalypse; carrying famine, disease, pestilence.

Oh and conventional warfare would occur as well.
Lots of footguns in all of them. Arch probably has the most new and shiny ones, and Gentoo has accumulated a lot of work on footgun tuning.

But regardless of 3, simply by using the App Store at all (similarly to any other App Store out there) you're already giving them more information than they get from these hashes (at least for the apps that come from the store). I know for a fact that they keep a record of which apps you've downloaded there, associated with your account, because they check for updates and let you re-download them. As does the Android store. As does the Windows store.

Er, but that's rather what's being argued about, what the accepted method is. Funny that everyone making that argument tries to smuggle it in as an assumption.
Historically, predominantly white empires colonize territories that aren't white. If you're black, brown, indigenous, you're most likely from a former or current colony. It's been used as a justification for blatant exploitation.

This type of marginalization has happened and is still currently happening in Eastern Europe, but it's done around ethnic and/or religious lines. The most obvious examples of this are the the treatment of Jews and more recently the Bosniaks in the Balkans. It also happened in Russia to the Cossacks and Crimean Tatars, among others. It operates on the same principal.
Serious questions for people who work on this kind of research or who have done so in the past:

Why do we need this kind of research? Don’t we already have enough to tell us that exercising is good, and that exercising more is probably better?

Ostensibly they were trying to compare the recommended levels of activity with high intensity and medium intensity exercise to see which was better, but would anything really change based on this research? Wouldn’t whatever resources that went toward this research be better put to use by getting more people to exercise instead of studying what’s “best” or whatever this is trying to do?

I understand that doing and publishing research is key to some academic careers (which is questionable in its own right), is that what’s really driving all this? For reference, my view on the role of research in tenured/academic jobs is probably pretty close to the negative viewpoint in this article that was posted on HN a while back:

It happens with forced win10 updates.

Google's own lighthouse suite runs everything through network/cpu throttling for scoring so to download a bundle that started at 2mb and parse it really penalizes you compared to a 1mb bundle (even after gzip and you're getting screwed on parse performance of lower devices).

Then you have the way universal replaces all content when it bootstraps and you get penalised for that. We're also seeing issues where the site isn't ready yet and clicking a link just opens a new tab cause the JS wasn't downloaded/parsed yet.

You can use the preload library but guess what: doesn't work. As usual it was always: this'll get fixed with ivy and it wasn't. It seems all libraries we depend on were initially made by staff who were driven out of the team.

I think you're missing the point.

There is no problem with multiple stores existing as a model. In fact, on android you can have that. If you like multiple stores, and you want the hassle of using reputation services to manage which things you trust, that's fine. Nobody is saying that you can't.

But by going against Apple's store as part of the platform model, you want to stop people from having a simpler option.

They are deciding that simpler option when they buy into the platform. My mum HATES PCs but loves her iPad because she doesn't have to deal with antivirus updates or downloading dodgy software. She doesn't have to understand multiple stores.

With a multi store model, there is an incentive for competition on store pricing. How do you compete on pricing alone with other stores? You reduce the quality of your review process. It's the only way to compete on cost. And that's what forcing multiple stores does.
There is no legal basis for this. Facebook and Twitter are explicitly permitted to amplify or suppress whatever content they wish.
