There are so many falsehoods in this, I don’t know where to start.

1. Adding missing specs is less creative than designing a software system. It’s weird that adding specs to a product requirement is your example of creativity.

2. The correct solution is the boring one? What on earth are you basing this assertion on. Is your worldview so reductionist that you actually think this kind’ve statement contains any true or valuable information?

3. Predictable, maintainable, error-free software is more dependent on choosing/formulating the correct abstractions (which is very much a creative process) than following a checklist of “bricklaying” steps.

4. You seem to be confusing boring with correct and fun/pet with creative. Neither of these are equivalent.

It’s a shame because I assume you hold these opinions out of ignorance, which means you’ve never had the chance to build software in a creative, challenging environment where following a checklist would certainly result in failure. And I sympathize with anyone who hasn’t gotten to experience what’s truly special about this profession: the creative process.

Completely agree!
You can definitely broaden it past engineers. I work management in food service, and I can definitely identify with the grandparent post.

I've worked for financial types who barely understood how to run a business, much less specifically a restaurant, and now I work for a giant multinational chain. Serious problems were way more common working with the former, but solutions were directly reachable. Now the interesting problems are all things that I just submit feedback into a void about.
If the road is wide open, and I'm in the right lane minding the speed limit, anyone that gets mad at my speed clearly deserves it.
Case was dropped by the DVD CCA in Norway because the number was no longer secret. That isn't relevant for section 1201 of the DMCA. It cares only if the program's intent was to bypass copy protection. DeCSS, and even libdvdcss, are absolutely infringing on this, and can't be hosted in USA repositories.
Right. That's this year. What about the last 20 years of US elections?
It's all over. Here's an example:

Massachusetts does not have a statutory presumption regarding physical custody following a trial, though lawyers told us that courts have strong biases. "The adage is that unless the woman has a hypodermic needle sticking out of her arm when she comes into the courtroom, she is getting sole physical custody and the father will be a visitor," said one attorney. Given the unofficial "mom wins" rule, it is surprising how many custody fights that there actually are. Part of the answer may be that the one-page official complaint form that is used to start divorce lawsuits has a checkbox to ask for sole legal and physical custody of minor children but no checkbox for seeking joint legal or physical custody. (The same one-page form that invites a divorce plaintiff also to start a custody lawsuit has a checkbox for starting a domestic violence lawsuit as well; the plaintiff can ask the judge to "prohibit defendant from imposing any restraint on plaintiff's personal liberty," i.e., issue a restraining order against the defendant.)

To see if the attorneys we contacted were exaggerating and/or if the bias towards sole custody indicated by the official state form did not reflect outcomes, we hired an attorney to pull and analyze all of the cases for one judge, Maureen Monks in Middlesex County, for 2009, 2010, and 2011 (approximately 350 cases per year, though not all of them involved disputed custody). Judge Monks awarded custody via temporary order to the mother in nearly all of the cases examined except for one case where the mother was a drug addict and another where the mother was in a mental hospital (and as soon as the mother was released from the mental hospital, Judge Monks awarded custody of the children back to her). During the three-year study period no father was successful in going to trial and obtaining a 50/50 shared physical custody situation from Judge Monks in the cases that our attorney-analyst examined. Our attorney-analyst for the May 2011 study concluded that one plaintiff mother was "objectively unfit" due to alcoholism; Judge Monks awarded her sole physical custody of three children. The record of Judge Monks is consistent with March 2014 U.S. Census Current Population Survey data suggesting that over 90 percent of custody lawsuits in Massachusetts are won by women (Census data doesn't track the lawsuits themselves, but shared parenting is uncommon in Massachusetts and the Census found that 97 percent of the Massachusetts residents collecting child support are women). This is consistent with our May 2011 analysis, which found that roughly 91 percent of the "primary parent" winners were women and only 7.5 percent of children were assigned to shared parenting.

I'm having a hard time deciding if this is the work of a well-meaning but misguided obsessive, or GPT-3 generated pseudo-gibberish.

In any case, this book could use a great deal of editing. If there is wisdom in here, I don't want to dig through hundreds of pages to find it.
Yeah, the problem is coming up with a test that actually identifies who’s “informed” without biasing the electorate unfairly.
Meteorite strike or supervolcano eruption that we could have protected ourselves against but didn't because of resources spent on nuclear war prevention.

Not sure why you added the "within a few hours" qualifier or "intentionally human driven". Have you already thought of something that takes longer, is done by humans accidentally, or is natural? Is it climate change? Does that already answer your question?
>> It's perfectly possible to write an article like this in neutral terms "primary caretaker," and point out the majority are women, and there's a disparate gender impact.

Point out to me what part of GP is claiming that the harms of a sexist society are felt symmetrically by the groups involved?

There is a claim in GPs post that the men who have stepped out of the stereotypical role and into that primary care giver role are punched twice 1) by the traditional culture this article is railing against and 2) by the culture produced by articles like this that will ignore the men who do not fit into their power narrative.

Apple can keep their silicon - and their shitty OCSP security checks. As the Apple laptops / iMacs die or become obsolete in my house, they'll being replaced by PCs. Let's not pretend that this is some pro-consumer move. I would actively avoid implementing Docker on Apple Silicon, at some point Apple will close the macOS ecosystem and you won't be able to use Docker anyhow.
This is absolutely a legitimate DMCA notice. The repos in question are created with the sole intention of bypassing a DRM scheme, which allows for takedown under DMCA 1201.
But to return the ballot, you need to match the signature with the one on file, which is very difficult to do at scale.

When I was at google there were a couple of times that "big services" went down. Every time the service was actually up, some change or another broke the connection from the gateway to the internal system. It's probably that. If it was just a bad push of a single component, usually you can revert it. If you push a bad gateway config, maybe the gateways are crashing so much you can't roll back.
I’m in Kansas—we had a mark-and-scan thing this year. Maybe it’s not that way statewide?
This has been brought up before in the other threads, but just because you self host doesn't mean you can ignore DMCA takedown requests. You can choose to ignore such DMCA requests if they decide to send one to your self-hosted website, but not honoring it means you think you're not infringing on their copyright and are willing to go to court over it. If they don't want to go this far, or you try to not include contact info, they'll probably first send a DMCA to your web host/registrar who will suspend your hosting/website unless you counter-notice, which still means you've got to be ready to fight a lawsuit (note that Cloudflare forwards DMCA requests to your web host company, so you can't hide behind CF).

Does this include, say, accelerating climate change? This isn't an idle hypothetical, nuclear reactor technology is similar enough to nuclear weapons technology that any country with a reactor can produce crude nuclear weapons in a matter of months.

Hard decisions exist and must be made. At some point we must quantify risks.
Imagine that: a non-partisan agency, much as the police and fire services are also non-partisan.
I run Linux (Debian) on my Lenovo X1 Carbon and it works perfectly.
Possibly because if anything is, this is a legitimate claim. Ignoring the "it's a tool to circumvent DRM" nonsense (which is a "legitimate" claim under the DMCA).

The repository itself is pirated code - it is code held under copyright by google, and google doesn't want it to be public, therefore anyone distributing it is violating copyright. The DMCA claim is substantially less than what they could do. Actual copyright violations have very large fines.
>Lenovo might be known that way, but they are exceptionally bad at supporting Linux.

Absolutely no trouble on x395. It's been running Linux (Arch) for a year, and it is my main system.
While it's not my first choice, we could offer multiple versions of ballots that were translated to Score Voting canonical ballots. If you want the deeper resolution, you can have it. If you want to do FPTP you can have a ballot that masks a Score Voting ballot and simply votes just one person a 99. If you want an approval voting ballot, it masks a Score Voting ballot giving all your choices a 99. Score Voting is still the superset, the appearance would be cosmetic -- however, I am willing to concede that confusing ballot appearances do affect outcomes.
Chargers can be installed on the street, much like parking meters.
I actually disagree with the last paragraph.

Appearance can be earned. Staying fit, learning how to dress, what hairstyles work for you, how to do makeup, correcting your posture, etc. All these take a lot of effort, and makes a big difference in how people perceive you.

I have a friend who I met at the gym who’s a software engineer at Amazon, and she has ~50k instagram followers because she lost a lot of weight. Like, from 300lbs to “the fit girl at the gym”. She was used to being bullied when she grew up. Social perception of attraction can definitely be earned.

Similarly, being likeable and socially capable is something that can be earned too. From personal experience, it takes a lot of practice and putting in effort to understand others. Even gaining perspectives from MDMA and LSD helps a lot. Human behavior isn’t set in stone, and with effort can be changed.
Space-based crypto-funded storage for guaranteeing that one operator.

The best part about non-GEO satellites is that, although you can't see them 24/7 from one location, that also makes it incredibly difficult to jam their uplinks continuously.
It's practical and also Apple does, but it's confusing for most users. I wish both platform explaining why it's bundled on the screen. Maybe create a permission only able to connect specific OUI would be a solution?
I don't think it's true. Democrats still don't like the electoral college even when they win. The real margin in this election would be over 5 million instead of the hundred of thousands if the EC didn't exist.

And in this case the Republican claims of misnformation and conspiracy have seemed so outlandish and baseless it's hard to take any of them seriously.

Like videos of ballots being burned, that turned out to be sample ballots printed from the internet.

Or the false rumor that ballots marked with sharpie were being disqualified in Arizona when their own election officials repeatedly cleared that claim.

Or the baseless claim that Republican observers were not present for the counting of ballots in Michigan or Pennsylvania - they were.

Or the willful misunderstanding of how ballots were being tallied and reported.

Or that mail in ballots fraudulently skewed Democratic after Trump spent months telling his supporters not to trust mail voting, then complaining when those mailin ballots were legally counted after November 3rd.
We have laws against violence, and we have a justice system and law enforcement to enforce the laws. If they believe there is a credible threat, they should investigate, that is their purpose. We can hold them accountable via voting and their actions should ideally be transparent to the public. If Bannon is part of a real, literal plot to place Fauci's head on a pike at the White House, that is the avenue through which it should be prosecuted, not via some intern at Facebook looking at a couple of posts and making a unilateral decision with no public accountability.

There's room for asymmetric errors in input, in the direction of a favored candidate. Still way better than the kinds that are electronic only, but not as good as paper-first.

> Or just get some sunshine!

Where I live I haven't been able to get sun actually on my skin for the last three weeks.

I saw sunshine through the window one day last week while in a meeting, but it was gone an hour later. According to my weather app the next break in cloud is more than a week from now.

Even when there is sunshine in the winter, it's often too cold to expose more than a tiny amount of skin anyway. Please don't assume we all live in California.
This is such sad news. I remember playing with Cairo a few years ago and the library (and documentation, especially) felt lovingly put together.

Few projects ascend to the astral planes of immortality. Even Xorg is on the way out. Computer look and feel is very nostalgic and I hope to visit an API museum when I am older, to e.g. look back on fond memories of using repl.it so much in 2020.

(Tip to any young people who read this far: take lots of full desktop screenshots as you work. You’ll enjoy looking at them in 20 years time.)
These dismissed ballots weren’t even electronic; they were mail-in ballots that were cured during an extended deadline.

While I disagree with throwing out any vote, the ballots were thrown out because they didn’t comply with the law, not because a third party interfered or hacked the election system.

You can disagree with the law (and disagreeing in this case is reasonable!), but that doesn’t mean our elections are insecure.
Mine and many others. Rightfully so, see the example.

This can't be True, when 6000 votes where reversed in Michigan county from one of these machines. This is a fact. Not some made up BS. You either have a machine tallying the votes that works 100% of the time during the election. Otherwise, everyone can reasonably question the results from a machine that works 99% of the time.

6000 votes can't be going to the wrong candidates and the same time the election be "secure" in the mind of most reasonable people.

Here's the story.

The Nature and Feasibility of War and Deterrence (1960)
In Accelerate the authors explain the construct they use in the State of DevOps reports. It consists of four metrics:

- Deployment frequency

- Lead time for changes

- Failure rate of deployments

- Time to restore service

These collectively capture some sense of "quality and quantity" of changes.

What they don't capture, obviously, are whether all changes are meaningful and valuable to the customer.

However doing well on these metrics is nearly a prerequisite for doing a good job of bringing the voice of the customer into the process, so maybe trying to capture customer value created is step 2.
Yep, the two-step:

-- AWS advertises the tool via the console and preintegrates it from both directions

-- IT+Procurement already approved AWS for projects, so PMs can skip vendor/tool approval+onboarding dances and focus on the budget one

True of not just AWS but Azure + GCP too

Startups can compete, but gets into stuff like deep tech or cross-vendor integrations, where the visibility and integration advantages don't apply as much to the cloud vendors so they rather go after easier targets until they can't. (Folks here posted about UI, but for b2b, I disagree for most cases, unless there's something deeply technical about it that a 20 person team can't copy.)
> I would be hesitant to go above 4000IU daily without monitoring blood levels every six months or so.

I did that for a little while (though the nurse practitioner at my work clinic wasn't too keen on signing off on non-medically indicated blood tests). IIRC, I was supplementing at 5000IU a day and after a few months wound up with a higher blood level than I was comfortable with, based on the ranges that came with the tests. After that, I reduced down to 2000IU a day or less.

I've been much less into supplements in general, but I only take 2000IU irregularly now.

All of these systems exist in real games I have first hand knowledge of.

What I'm taking from this conversation and looking at your engine is you're very familiar with the Source way of doing things, but ignorant of other work in the field.

If you were being pleasant I'd be happy to go in to specifics, but you aren't, so I won't.

Over a million people have played my multiplayer games, and they are not implemented this way.
What kind of source are you looking for. This is about hundreds of changes that all build up to a more locked down experience.

iOS has always been locked down.

MacOS now won't run unsigned software. Mac Pros will brick if you replace the SSD with another genuine SSD.

Safety net on android makes it harder to use root. There is an API to block screenshots. Security changes in Android 11 break termux and all other bash apps.

Windows tried RT and the S version but it doesn't seem to be replacing the regular one yet.
Got badly burned by iCloud Drive in the early days (and also Apple Photo's losing a ton of my photos). That was a long time ago though. Probably time to revisit it and give it a try.

I do like how iCloud and Onedrive have become so tightly integrated/transparent. (Benefits and banes).
What exactly is comparable Intel hardware, anyway?

That is to say, am I supposed to compare based on price, power consumption, process node equivalent, or some other factor?

This doesn’t work the same way in every state. In my county of CA you only send back a single envelope with the ballots folded over. Instead there is a serial number you can tear off to validate that the ballot was counted.

So it’s not doubly secret in the way you describe: https://elections.cdn.sos.ca.gov/vote-by-mail/pdf/guidance.p...
I don't understand why you would keep such a thing secret. As Dr. Strangelove rightly pointed out, a doomsday device is pointless if nobody knows about it.

> Contact tracing the old fashioned way is 100% sufficient for me.

Errr... you said you are against "contact tracing".

I (personally) took that to mean "the old way". But it sounds like you're against the automated phone app thing?

Well, I am too. My phone isn't capable of running any of the apps anyway, so it's kind of moot in my case.

Regarding lockdown, in my state (Victoria, Australia) we're just now starting to loosen our lock down rules after a sustained (multi-month) period of lock down.

For us, it worked. We've just had our 14th day of 0 new coronavirus cases in a row, and they shouldn't be returning. :)

That was after starting into a J-curve of increasing coronavirus cases, hitting 700+ per day before the lock down started taking effect.

So, lockdowns + masks work. And if we hadn't gone down that path, we'd be heading to a dark place about now (like the US) and our economy would probably end up turning to shit. o_O

That being said, the lock down sucked.

We also had a curfew (8pm - 5am), to help manage it. Not being able to go out except for exercise or to buy food gets to a person after a few weeks. :(

Very likely that the cheaper option is.

Republicans wanted ballots to be tabulated up front. This is completely false. The debacle of overnight ballots showing up at the 11th hour past the closing of the polls is another reason to tabulate them as they come in.
