Germany has the right idea. All countries should ensure data and operational sovereignty of critical tech companies.

Then when one of them misbehaves a leaf can be taken from the American play book, and said company will simply be seized by the government and handed over to a trusted sovereign entity for operation going forward.
It doesn't work for me, comes back with the error: Verification failed: Background worker error undefined

I'm using latest Firefox on GNU/Linux. Admittedly I've got a lot stuff blocking all sorts of things, and I'm not really sure what's kicking to block background workers, but I'm glad it's blocked. Anyway, after disabled literally all blocking tools that I have, it still refuses to load.
Blender is not really designed for accurate modeling.

I can recommend solvespace - it's quite basic in terms of features, but it's really well designed software, so it's nice for designing simple stuff.

Maybe it’s because I’m Italian, but Patagonia and grilled meat are honestly the last things I think about when I think Argentina, probably because I’ve sadly not been there yet. To me your country looks like long-haired footballers, Borges, Soriano, tango, Buenos Aires, desaparecidos, a president who looked like the guy on Fantasy Island (Menem), and all those magnificent comicbook artists the country somehow produced (Quino, Josè Munoz, Carlos Sampayo, Horacio Altuna, Alberto Salinas, Lucho Olivera, the “adopted” Robin Wood...). It’s still very much a stereotype, but definitely something I can’t really associate to wilderness.
Actually, had 386BSD happened just a bit earlier, we would all be using FreeBSD.

Interestingly, it takes them under 20 seconds to solve a recaptcha and 70 for hCaptcha.

I wonder if they’ve partially automated recaptcha, or if hCaptcha is just a bigger pain in the neck. (I usually can’t solve a reCaptcha in 15 seconds...)
From your line of reasoning, I'd guess that you have no moral issues with eating humans. If eating animals and plants is the same, then isn't eating non-human and human animals the same?

If you do have a moral problem with eating humans, then you probably have moral hierarchy - humans' lives are the most important, and every other life is less important.

Some vegetarians have a different moral hierarchy - animals' lives are most important, then plants' lives. You can value plants' lives, and treat plants with respect, and still decide that you're morally okay with eating plants.

I'm not sure why Sartre is quoted in Italian here, but this seems to be a spurious quote all the same. I could only find two sources with a version of that quote in French and neither had a citation of the original source. In fact, the only real quote from him I could find on soccer was «Au football, tout est compliqué par la présence de l'équipe adverse» ("In football, everything is complicated by the presence of the other team.").

Interestingly, during my search I found an apt quote for this discussion from another 20th century French philosopher. Camus once said «Ce que je sais de la morale, c'est au football que je le dois» ("What I know about morality, I owe to football"). I guess he would be missing the point here too.

I guess it's a "purity" thing, research unix post 7th ed. were derived from 4BSD, inheriting most of its "bloat", if that sort of thing bothers you.

Ownership is nice, but how can a zero terminated buffer library still call itself string? We have unicode for a while. UTF-8 only, not less. Strings must support unicode.

There is nothing in the plain OCSP that prevents the responder server from logging the request along with the originating IP. Any claims that a particular server doesn't do so is either just an assumption or based on trust alone. This is why OCSP-stapling is preferred against plain OCSP in browsers and also why plain OCSP can be disabled. In this particular case, trustd and other system daemons are known to skip VPN and firewall blocks - so it's mandatory information leak.
Vegans are not necessarily asking for anything. They will simply buy products that no harm was done to animals for, given the choice. As a result they will buy more of the non-animal derived products. Some plant-meat/dairy/egg may be on the menu for vegans, but that's not what defines them.

Sure some vegan may voice their believe that "all animals should be wild", but not even this belief is shared among all vegans and not all are activists.

Your statement "it's never enough for vegans" has two sides for me. If someone abstains from animal derived products, vegans will generally think that's "enough". The mission and "required behavioral change" is very commonly agreed on by vegans (contrary to other movements). On the other hand, most vegans are very aware that pest control is not going away soon, and that fast modes of transport will cause some (mostly bugs) collateral harm. From this point of view you are right: there will always be some next frontier of harm reduction. It will never be enough.

For me there is a line between breeding domesticated animals, and the regretted harm caused to wild animals. I find the first appalling, where the latter is something I cannot reasonably go completely without (bugs on my windshield, pest control, etc.).
I don't think virologists have contributed much so far, at least not to government policy. That's driven almost entirely by modellers.

I'm not asking you to blindly trust me on this. By no means. Go read some of the papers yourself if you like. The value of academic credentials in the field of epidemiology is zero. These people just constantly make basic errors in their papers and standards are so systematically low across the board nobody notices or cares.

I've posted here a list of just some of the problems I've noticed whilst reading these papers:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25202182

By all means, have blind faith in the credentialed classes. Just remember these are the same people who came up with critical race theory, every replication failure in the field of psychology, the decades of 180 degree turns in nutrition, etc. This article is a good (albeit slightly technical) introduction to some of the problems outsiders find when they sit down and actually read academic output:

It's not about saving a bit, but about saving an entire word. If the length and ownership weren't packed together, you'd need one more field in the str struct for the ownership bit, and due to alignment the minimum size increase would be a word.

If some dirty peadophile is sending kiddie porn, I personally think it would be a good thing if WhatsApp stopped allowing them to use their service.

> If it's criminal harassment that won't end, you call the police.

This is funny because you clearly haven't realised the police normally won't do anything.

Reporting is necessary if it's spam, harrassment, child porn, etc.

I feel like you're out of touch with the use cases of WhatsApp.
The only measure by which I believe it would be acceptable to judge Linux "fat" would be to compare the size of kernels generated using "tinyconfig". Basically, everything that can be disabled without rendering the kernel useless it turned off. You're only left with the core of the kernel. At this point in time, you get a kernel image that's like ~450 KiB.

If you actually want to boot that on real hardware, you can enable the drivers that are stubs into the BIOS calls for classic devices (disks, serial ports, SVGA graphics, etc.) for another ~100 KiB. It's extremely limited though - no specific PCIe support, ACPI, networking, etc.
To be fair it doesn't seem to be _that_ bad on this thread: There's the very vocal OP as well as a "discussion" between various users that ranges from "please switch back to ReCaptcha" to "please keep hCaptcha".

For a change that affects "15% of the internet" this seems like very little negative feedback in a period of 8 months.

Hey, as you go on posting irrelevant variations of this, I'm just curious: how old are you? Are you aware that the World existed before the Internet or the year 2000 and that this guy happened to be the best player in the most popular sport in the World who also scored a goal that was considered pretty much impossible until ten years later a dude called Ronaldo (the original one) scored something like it against a much weaker team in a national league, not in a World Cup, a global event that happens to draw pretty much the same viewership than the Olympics?

So yeah, outside your own limited experience Maradona was a huge deal.

Never a big fan myself though yet dep, barrilete cósmico and hugs to all the Argentinian folks, it's difficult to convey why and how much they feel what they do about this flawed individual, but they do.
Also, the outcome of the captcha is only loosely correlated to whether you answer correctly.
They don't, that's the whole point. Check it again - they only seem to move.
Looks interesting. I find out all my regexes are pretty much write-only. When I come back to them few months later, I can't make much of them and it's easier for me to start from scratch. Tools such as https://regex101.com/ are amazing though for development of regexes and later trying to make sense of them.
WordPress Black Friday Deals Don't Shoot Me, Trying to Be Different OK?
There's a sh&t ton of Black Friday deals floating around for various digital products. I wanted to make something different, something people would find useful when searching for WordPress themes, plugins, hosting, and blogging tools.

Different from the norm, something I'd like to use. Anyway thought I'd share it; this post will probably disappear into the ether, and be forgotten in 30 seconds.

Or be shot down in flames, to be honest, I'm a one man band.

I mentioned UTF-8 specifically, because the UTF-8 encoding actually does specify this particular feature:

The way they didn't realize Bartlet was shot until he started to bleed from the mouth was copied straight from what happened to Reagan.

During the West Wing, Sorkin was a master at dramatizing real life when it worked, or inventing plot points completely when that would play better.

Like Christan Slater destroying his $1400 glass ash tray with a hammer to demonstrate that it's expensive because it's designed to break in to dull pieces and thereby not be dangerous in the heat of naval combat, justifying the cost. Except in real life they'd just use one made of metal.

That so much of it was authentic (to a television standard) gave suspension of disbelief for the made up bits, and seasons 1-4 are consequently some of the best television ever made.

To answer your question, I think not significantly.

But I started 3D printing Feb this year and started 3D modelling only for that purpose. I don't see myself investing in anything else.

Right now it works ok for 3D printed models. Not great but if you are aware of it's faults you can work with it.

In future it'd take a single blip of that focused developer firehose to address a whole lot of concerns for us 3D printer types.

But even without a big business throwing money at them for that exact purpose, I am excited by boolean modifiers and the knife intersect tool getting significant updates in this release.

Right now Blender is so much more than a 3D printed object modelling tool. I like having the option to explore other fields in the 3D modelling space too.
Something tangentially relevant to this, it is curious how this epidemic is forcing rapid change that was resisted for many years, and some of that change I suppose will stay. Companies resisted remote-working, educational institutions were very lukewarm towards remote classes/degrees, now all of that is the new normal. It is not a perfect comparison but this reminds me of the sweet changes during and just after WW2. It seems society needs a kick in the butt from time to time shake things up.

That's not good, could you maybe provide more details in the Github repo [0]? The widget is open source, hopefully we can figure out what is blocking it here.

We test the captcha in browsers up to 8 years old and on many devices, do you perhaps have background workers disabled entirely? Here is a link to the widget on its own [1], does that have the same behavior? How about a minimal worker example [2]?

I'm not sure that's right.

Too lazy to look it up right now, but my recollection is that in C, 0 is False and anything else is True.
I've worked on these sort of problems, and I can guess why.

What happens is that a new field gets added, and whoever's adding it claims it's really "important" and needs to be seen by everyone. It'll invariably set as mandatory to be filled in too.

2 years later and some integration breaks because the integration doesn't set that field and you end up looking at that really important field and every single project has it set to exactly the same value.

Repeat ad nauseum.

The other thing I've seen a few times is when assessments or a bonus depends on some field so they make it visible to everyone. Then the bonus scheme changes, but they never hide the fields that no-one cares about any more.
As someone who uses bitcoin as a currency, not as an investment asset or ideological flag, the only valid argument I have against it is that it's functionally worthless without electricity and an internet connection. If I'm at a music festival trying to purchase goods, bitcoin is not going to work because my phone can't be used for digital communication when there are 10000 other people connected to the same tower which was only engineered to service the 50 or so rural families who live in the area the rest of the year.

Slow processing times suck but it's not an argument against it, it's a growing pain. Huge electricity usage sucks but, again, a growing pain rather than a fundamental challenge to bitcoin.
It sounds like you have an issue with the lack of window snapping keyboard shortcuts that are in Windows 10, as well as iPhone backups happening in iTunes until they moved to finder, and iCloud being connected to iTunes although it's managed in SysPrefs.
