> There's really no way to win here. In theory Firefox could do the resolution as normal and then if it doesn't come back as loopback replace it with 127.0.0.1. That would be perfectly within the letter of the RFC, since noneo f the stuff above it MUST-level requirements, but probably not really within its spirit, since it would violate the "SHOULD NOT" bit.

Could a check to see if the name is "localhost" or "*.localhost" suffice to satisfy the "SHOULD NOT" requirement?

From the bugzilla comment:

> It seems reasonable to extend that to support any /etc/hosts assertions that fall into 127.0.0.0/8, but that's not something we've heard a whole lot of interest in, though there have certainly been one-off requests.

That does seem reasonable to me, and it covers more than just "localhost" names.

I do understand that most uses probably do not require resolution of localhost names to other than 127.0.0.1. I may also be a little annoyed that I'll have to make some changes to something I've been doing for a long time.

Thank you for your research and your replies.
Can concurrency models be compared in terms of some metrics?
In Seven Concurrency Models in Seven Weeks by Butcher, it compares Actor Model and Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP):

- CSP is more flexible than actor model:
In actor model, the medium of communication is tightly coupled to the unit of execution: each actor has precisely one mailbox;
In CSP, channels are first class and can be independently created, written to, read from, and passed between tasks.

- Nothing stops CSP from supporting distribution and fault tolerance, but historically CSP has not had the same level of focus and support of the two as actor model does.

- Both actor model and CSP do not directly support parallelism. Parallelism has to be created based on concurrency building blocks.

I was wondering if the two concurrency models can be compared in terms of some metrics (some measurement, quantities, ...) in aspects either mentioned above or not. (Butcher's book doesn't mention such metrics. I also tried but haven't found it in Varela's Programming Distributed Computing Systems.)

If concurrency models can not be compared in metrics, how can they be compared?

I am looking for some metrics to fit into the comparison between the concurrency models. Also for books, papers and articles for comparing them.

Thanks.
Take it to its logical conclusion and short the company.
At the time (1970s) those were considered pretty secure. Like who knows how AES fares in 50 years eh? Hard to tell.
> While an engineering graduate was promised Rs 21,000 ($286) per month

There is no way this is the correct amount, is there? Less than $10/day for an engineering graduate??

Checking... it's low, but maybe not impossible. [Glassdoor](https://www.glassdoor.com/Salaries/india-graduate-engineer-t...) says ~$460 / month. I'm absolutely astounded at how this is possible.
Oh, yeah, it lags and it is painful, but it is continuously moving forward (but chasing a moving target), even if the UI isn't (it's been probably more than a year since I looked at the UI.)

That likely very much depends on the individual. Personally I'm probably mildly hypoglycemic; I get brain-fog if I haven't eaten in a while - eating some fast carbs lifts the brain-fog.
The pattern recognition (and muscle memory that comes with it) is a huge difference between sight-reading music and programming, IMO.

I'm sure if we tried hard enough we could come up with a pretty good analogy between data structures / algorithms and scales / arpeggios / etc... but I've never felt quite the same when recognizing a familiarish algorithm in code as I would when sight-reading some music and having my fingers perform the right kind of movements out of almost unconscious muscle memory.

At first glance I thought you were right, but I believe the author is commenting on how the points in his article are summarized from another author's work (Elad Gil)
I always thought it was a pretty good metaphor and didn't understand why he got so much grief for it. Breaking up messages into little chunks, sticking each chunk into one of those little capsules like they have at the bank, putting each capsule into a pneumatic tube, sending it down a series of tubes with switching stations along the way, and reconstructing all the chunks (which may have taken different paths through the series of tubes and may have arrived out of order) at the destination -- this is a good metaphor for the internet!

Your main character says not all cops are bastards. Strong punk energy. eyeroll

It's extremely a game that is pastiche of cyberpunk, diving neither into the cyber nor punk beyond skinning things. Where's the Ghost in the Shell examination of the self? Where's the dive into what it means to have modifiable bodies? Where's the anti-establishment story (oh wait, the game opens with praise of the cops by multiple characters, including V).

For a game that wants to be cyberpunk, it sure relies on a lot of stereotypes about people and what they can be.

To me, it reads a lot like a Boomer/GenX take on what they remember cyberpunk being (NEON AND CHROME) and not an actual understanding of the genre (exploration of what it means to be a human in a corporate, transhuman world.)

If you want to play an actual cyberpunk game, check out Umurangi Generation or Shadowrun: Dragonfall. The Final Fantasy 7 Remake that came out this year is more cyberpunk than Cyberpunk.

That said, the game is a serviceable noire and shooter with some extremely always on aesthetic choices which aren't really my taste but they might be other's tastes.

> With GraphQL, you can have a frontend person add comments without anyone from the backend team modifying anything

Well, they can do that with REST as well. They will just make a bunch of requests. That is what usually happens in the real world.

However, the difference is that with REST, it all just looks like isolated independent requests. With graphQL it becomes more clear that someone wants to query all comments in just one query, so it's much more easy to detect and optimize for that case.

For me, GraphQL wins here.
Offshoring companies bring investment into the community, while funding startups costs the local community. Also if your startup needs skill and services not available locally that have to be sourced outside that’s more cost, whereas a company coming in will have to provide those services at its own expense.

If local salaries are depressed like that, this implies the outside investment is sorely needed. If there was enough investment available locally and local companies had the resources to hire more workers and were successful enough to pay them well, those salaries would be higher, but the resources to make that happen have to come from somewhere.
This is cool! I've often felt tempted to build something like that. I'm disappointed by how overpriced and terrible commercial thermostats are - try finding one that can actually switch from cool to heat automatically, isn't super-cumbersome to set up, and doesn't cost several hundred bucks.

It's also a bit sad how hard it seems to be to get Google Home to be able to control custom gadgets.

The goal of DNG was long-term archival and maximum compatibility; Nikon NEF, Canon CRW, and Sony ARW file formats are meant to capture the point-in-time exposure information. Some of that point in time information involves the decisions the camera made about the exposure (Active D Light for Nikon... I'm sure Sony and Canon have their own settings they are saving) that matter for recording metadata about the image capture that go well beyond just the image itself for the purposes of long-term archival.

It doesn't even require anything esoteric like a neutral network. This would already be very difficult for the federal reserve for instance, or the SEC. Or even the bureau of land management.

My cursory understanding of the whole "internet going dark" conspiracy is that this would not be used by Trump, but be used by the shadow government in co-operation with "Big Tech" in order to create panic and confusion amongst the masses so they can't organise, feel helpless and ultimately ask for "big government" and "big tech" to step in and save them.

For whatever reason, gp seems to be under the impression that it's Trump who would use this to his own advantage, which is not consistent with the prevailing conspiracy theories.

I think you're right that it's a good idea to avoid using the terms introvert and extrovert.

In my original post I was perhaps falling a bit for a stereotype that introverts are also misanthropic. A more accurate description for me would be that I generally feel more at peace when I am picking my own path through life and don't have any close or intimate relationships interfering with that. I'm not sure it's social events per se that bring me stress, it's more the sense that I am obliged or expected to perform that causes me anxiety.

What's still an interesting question for me is whether the sorts of negative health effects that - according to the article - are correlated with loneliness also happen to people who make a conscious choice to live more independent lifestyles. Is it physical isolation that causes these problems, or does it also happen to people who do superficially socialize in public but generally do so alone? Or are neither of these things a problem, only loneliness is a problem?
There's not much difference between the different formats in terms of engineering genius. The Raw data from a camera is basically a matrix of numbers...not too much innovation possible there. The fact that there are different formats is somewhat of a historical accident, and they preceded the DNG format. The format absolutely CAN be stored in a DNG, and in fact Pentax cameras have the option of either DNG or PEF.
It doesn't sound like you gave it much of a chance tbh. If you only play the main quests it might be possible to do 2 playthroughs since launch. I'm at 43h in and haven't finished the first playthrough yet, on normal difficulty.

The gameplay is pretty much identical to w3, which is what I expected going in. If you expected more than that you were bound to be disappointed.

The majority of theft is done by wealthy owners (wage theft), or by the police (civil asset forfeiture).

As for murders, most of them are from people you know, there is a vanishingly small chance that you are killed by someone that you do not know unless you yourself are a criminal.

But murders and beatings yes are an exception. Outside of times of war, where you again are likely to die or get seriously injured to protect the interests of the owner class.

Also, criminals are generally not prosecuted very often because it's not that important to the system that you get justice, really. With police, it's different, because it's not a question of not caring, but instead of actual accountability.
Also, take that Larry Wall! I guess?
I find personally that there's a vague sort of pyramid structure to my social needs. Frivolous socializing is a fun break when my deeper social needs are met, but I start to resent it when it's the majority of my socializing.
Borderlands has sequel rot in my opinion. The first one had a relatively linear weapon plot, as you gained levels, you'd find a replacement weapon (one of four) about every level or two. borderlands 2 was a "better game" except for the weapons and overall upgrade path. Borderlands 3 i couldn't get through without cheating due to extremely low drop chances of anything good, and i had already passed the refund time limit - family emergency caused me to leave the house with the game running, out $60.

Having "literally millions of weapons" looks good on paper, but it makes for non-engaging gameplay if done incorrectly, which it was in the numbered sequels, in my opinion.

overall, borderlands 2 and 3 felt like a chore to play, "get one hour of grinding in", regardless of how pretty it was or interesting the other mechanics were.

And you know what the main difference was between 1 and 2 & 3? Paid loot boxes / real money transactions.
You can download a free converter from Adobe that takes these proprietary formats and converts them to DNG. It contains the exact same information, so no, there's nothing special in these formats. If you want to do something innovative and don't want to follow Apple's example and contribute to the spec, use the "DNGPrivateData" tag. It's in the spec for this very reason.

If you insist on using your own format for some strategic reason, annoying the entire RAW ecosystem, you're acting like a jerk. On the other hand, if you're doing it because you want to express your engineering genius, I agree that isn't acting like a jerk. That's acting like a child.
Whoa, the complex board game analogy is new to me but it rings so true. Like you I’m bilingual. Like you I know many programming languages (dangerous level or above). To equate learning “syntax” of the language as learning a complex board game is such a great analogy.

Sure there is. Consulting the local hosts file isn't contacting the configured caching DNS server, so there is no SHOULD or SHOULD NOT violated by consulting hosts and then defaulting 127.0.0.1 if a more specific address in the loopback address range is not provided.

(Relying on a system-level name resolution API also isn't contacting the caching DNS server, and if that API behaves according to spec, including potentially relying on local resources loke hosts but not remote DNS servers for localhost domains, that would also work.)

I wasn't a fan of messing with the thermostat housing but just now after pulling it off, I think my thermostat isn't anything fancy like that, just two black load and two red line wires. It's also important to note that my thermostat connects to baseboard heaters, not an HVAC system.

Certainly an accurate observation, and what is typically known as hysteresis for those playing along at home.

I mention this because sometimes when you self-discover something, you struggle to identify the most common word to describe it, which can obscure lots of research and prior art about that thing.

Because applications of control theory are so practical and likely to be empirically observed, it’s probably pretty common to have observations like this.

Where is this trope of Molotov throwing journalists coming from? I have seen it multiple times in this thread and it is just bizarre. No one would consider someone throwing a Molotov a journalist, no one would count such an arrest as the arrest of a journalist, and no one would consider the arrest an attack on press freedom.

What do they mean by "The temperature dial doesn’t work"?
