> American news outlets generally don't report on issues outside their borders unless it's relevant to them.

American news outlets generally don't report on anything that they aren't getting press releases and phone calls about from companies and organizations that they're friendly with. They only do it if so many other outlets are reporting the story that they'd look bad, and then they just copy the story directly from those other outlets.

They don't report negatively on sponsors, other parts of their very large and diverse companies, or any other companies that their owners or important employees are associated with, unless forced. If forced, they copy what has been reported and add nothing but mild apologia and FUD.

Uber fined $59M for dodging questions about sexual assaults
Cool concept, well done. Visually appealing for sure. A few things:

First, I don’t think that your users’ first exposure to your product should be a comparison to other products.

As another user mentioned, I don’t really have an idea of what the site is. I think the comparisons to other products might provide a clearer picture to you since (I’m guessing) those were your initial thoughts about the direction of the project. To others, however, the comparisons seem kind of convoluted.

Also, as yet another user mentioned, I would prefer a different authentication option.

The solution to student debt it Georgia Tech's OMSCS. It is super cheap ($8k whole MS degree), amazing, very hard, and takes a long time. UTexas and ASU's programs are also excellent and not much more expensive.

I think OMSCS isn't more popular because it is so damn hard. People always want the quick and easy road.
That sentence was indeed a bit awkward, but I hope the meaning gets across since it wouldn't really make much sense the other way around, I think :-)
If you don't have you work computer at home, you will not see Slack at home. If you install a work app on your personal phone, that's not Slack's fault.

The same pressure to check Slack on your personal phone on your off-time would be applied to work email, sms, or whatever it's used instead of slack
“the company says employees should live within a commuting distance to their assigned office, where they are expected to show up three days a week”

If managing a home office was “broken down”, they wouldn’t be allowing two days a week WFH. A pretty reasonable compromise. If two parents each had this option, and they could schedule the WFH days, then the kids only need to be covered one day a week. If 2.5 days/week, then one parent could always be at home...they should have considered this option more seriously and sold it as a Bay Area standard to other firms. Kids actually do come first...

Makes a long commute a lot more tolerable as well. If you can afford a house with a longer commute, a home office in a house is a lot more manageable. Any reasonable sized house wouldn’t require competing with washing machine noise. Consider active noise reduction in the office(s) for the kids and dogs (why isn’t that option talked up more). Or more effective parenting, cf. the French.

Hope they keep pushing the envelope on more WFH and even remote work. I could see permanent remote work being a problem from a non-Five Eyes country from a security standpoint. Would love to know the issues they actually had with permanent remote work...they were better positioned to make it happen than anyone else. We (almost the whole world) needs to know exactly why that didn’t work for them. A failure in management?

This isn't just hindsight - anyone who knows audio coding or really anything about thread-sleeping will have the same reaction of disgust to the design of that audio buffering. It is a design that is bad in ways it never needed to be, that would not have saved time in coding.
When it's your own body, it's fairly easy to gather a lot of data.* Most people eat multiple times per day. If you are on the diet and symptom free and then off the diet and your symptoms come back, it gets to pretty quickly be hard to pretend this is merely "wild coincidence."

Yes, you need more rigorous documentation to get it into the medical literature and prescribed by doctors and yadda. But experimenting on yourself? It's totally possible to draw a firm and reasonable conclusion that "X diet is helpful for managing my symptoms and making my life more functional."

* Observed data, not necessarily documented.

> you pay taxes on the original purchase price

Not exactly. It is more complex than that. The tax base is supposed to be the market value but if the market value raises, the tax base is allowed to follow only up to a certain margin. With CA and especially Bay Area prices skyrocketing for a while, the effect has been than the tax base lags very far from the actual market value, and for people who bought in the 80s the tax base may be a fraction of their current market value.
> I don't believe it's an ISPs role to be fiddling with the application level services of someone's internet.

It is not but it doesn't mean they won't do it. I am lucky enough to be unlucky enough to be using VDSL2, so I use my own CPE where possible, and often just disable the TR069 interface and CWMP functionality so the ISP can't break into my modem.

The reason for this is they often factory reset the modem if their automated auditing scripts notice something "forbidden", i.e. DMZ to my router, which causes me great inconvenience to have to log into the modem again and setup a DMZ. Same would happen if I was using (soft-disabled) Bridge mode.

So I just deny them access. On some modems I also download the config, change SSH and Telnet password (as well as "admin" and "telecomadmin" passwords for web UI), remove CWMP entries completely, and then restore the config so the modem won't connect.

Best part is, if I have a problem that I have to report to the ISP, I first factory reset the modem, it pulls the config via TFTP on TR069 interface, resets again and configures itself according to their wishes - then I try to reproduce the problem, and if it is present, I call them to open a support ticket. If it is not present, I roll back to my config and try to debug the issue on my side.

No harm to the modem, no time wasted for me.

Sadly this is not at all possible for DOCSIS cable modems nor GPON ONTs for fiber to the home service. There you're SOL if your ISP is being mean and displaying anti-user behavior.
Why does every picture of Joe Biden show him pointing his index finger?

I mean it's just kinda weird.
There are two big issues.

One is that the as-is rule only says that code has to match a possible execution of the abstract machine. Let's say an optimization changes the address where a variable gets allocated. That's an extremely valid optimization, even though the program can observe the change. But that would make it fail the "eval e = eval (opt e)" rule in siraben's proof. The same for picking a different order to execute the functions in "f() + g()".

The other is optimizing around undefined behavior. The as-is rule only applies for valid inputs. Optimizing a loop by assuming you won't overflow would get rejected by that proof. So would optimizing code so that it won't segfault.

And depending on how exactly that eval test works, it might effectively mark every variable as volatile too.
I count the definitions given for a proof as part of the proof.

Specifically slavery was more varied than "American slavery as we understand it today." The passage I quoted is different, in that it departs from the traditional model of plantation based, field labor slavery. It is still reprehensible exploitation, of course.

"The breakout success of OnlyFans is laudable, but should prompt some soul-searching in the power centers of Silicon Valley. Why did it take this long?

Probably for the same reasons there's no comments on this article.
The fact one service had an issue. And not only did it take said service down globally, it also impacted dozens of other services...globally.

A good infra architecture has the “blast radius” of any issue confined to only part of your infra fleet. Avoiding the global outage.

Think of it like a navy ship. When a mussel breaches the hull, the ship is designed to contain the leak in a single section. Avoiding the entire ship sinking. Similar pattern is desired in your service and compute infrastructure.

The outage google just faced is equivalent to a single missel taking down an entire navy fleet.
One challenge is that there are lots of cases where a program might have UB for a certain input, but a full-program analysis reveals that this UB is not actually possible to hit with any execution.

Should it still report UB? What if the full program analysis is beyond what the compiler is able to reason about?
You might have been able to use the same syntax before, but writing code for Reason native was already very different to writing Reason+BuckleScript for the browser. This just formalises the split.

To write the same code for both front and back end js_of_ocaml has been the standard since long before Reason came along, and it works just fine with Reason native.

Hm so what does Facebook use? I saw a talk that was marketing Reason as "React as a language"?

Is that true for ReScript, or no?

Presumably Facebook still uses React? But they use it via regular JS and not Reason or Rescript?

When you force the company to use your custom internal platform instead of an industry standard, it's only fair that you become responsible for providing the instant answers they would otherwise get from Google and Stackoverflow.

Interruption is a feature. If we let our platform teams get into the zone and code too much, they'd NIH our damn editors. It's important to have support burden as a brake on the development of custom crap, and a thumb on the scale in favor of deploying tools that a) developers might already know, b) the internet definitely knows, and c) are higher quality and more capable than even the brightest team with your budget could create.

We have support channels for our Redis and MySQL installations. It is crickets in there. But the people who write a custom NoSQL are rightfully getting slammed 24x7.

You're assuming it's always in track 9 in the same spot. What if it isn't? And what if different applications use slightly different obfuscation?

If we're assuming Western Security DRM is always in the same spot using the exact same method, why not compare it against some other type of copy protection that always puts the exact same checking code in the same spot? It would actually be easier to blot out the other type's code with NOPs than to recalculate obfuscated Western Security track-length tables.
That is a problem that I haven’t solved.

> Personal protection is just that: personal. If masks are not adequate to protect you from others who may not be following best practices then I think the PPE standards need to be adjusted.

That's not the point of using a mask at all. It never was, to begin with.

Masks are intended to limit or eliminate the chance you infect people around you. Sure, they also help you not breed in particles, but masks are quite literally a filter you place over your mouth and nose to stop the droplets you're emitting from spreading around.

The rationale is that covid carriers can spread the disease for over a week without even suspecting they have it. They spread the disease by spraying infected droplets through their airways. Thus, the right thing to do is to be on the safe side and ensure we cannot contribute to spread the disease.

If the whole community acts responsibly and takes basic measures to stop the disease from spreading, the disease stops spreading and the epidemic is reigned in.

You wear a mask to protect the community and ensure everyone around you stays safe. You're intentionally putting everyone around you and everyone you contact with at risk if you not only refuse to take basic precautions such as wearing a mask but also engage with people who also refuse to do so.
This also means that you do not need to feel guilty for good fortune.
Sure you can, it just requires a little bit more syntax and following FP patters by making use of lambdas.

With lock() being a function taking a lambda.

From the linked article in their blog post:

> To substantiate this, ROSS released emails that it says show that when LegalEase did once send unsolicited Westlaw content, ROSS immediately told them not to send such proprietary information.

The first email is from the ROSS engineer who discovered the data, alerting the project lead. He said, “they [LegalEase] include a lot of what seems to be Westlaw headnotes, footnotes, and other stuff. If it’s possible for them to send us cases without that it would be much better as that is added noise.”
Hospitals do this, but backwards. The service provider gets to set the price.
My perspective is probably a bit different than most, but for me it's that SV just seems like wasted potential. Like here's this place where the high-paying jobs are attracting the most talented people from around the world and you get there it's like... you have 3+ working adults sharing a house built in the 1950's. With all it's money and resources, the area could be on it's way to becoming the next NYC or Tokyo, but instead we get an increasingly boring area that nobody outside of the tech monoculture has any reason to move to.

Basically, Seattle deserves it more.

IMO this isn't about whether ReScript wants to upstream their changes, it's a combination of things:

- Reason+BuckleScript was confusing at best, having two websites and different release schedules.

- Reason's goal is to be a 100% mapped syntax for OCaml. This does not mesh well with the goal of producing readable JS, so ReScript will probably end up as a subset of OCaml features.

- Reason syntax changes apparently caused grief when applied to BuckleScript. This one was never very clear, but regardless now that the syntax is in-house the ReScript team can be more responsive with it.

The problem with this transition is that it was dropped on the community in an unfinished state and BuckleScript was retired completely. The goals of the change are, I think, mostly reasonable.

A lot of the issues I encounter are mostly related to Swift and SourceKit more than they are Xcode. The language server will start choking after a mildly complex project and highlighting and autocomplete will stop working. Sometimes it won’t recover until you delete derived data. Xcode itself is missing some modern features for navigation and a plug-in system however. I’d also like it if the Xcode team could learn what software patches are rather than releasing an 11gb version for every update.
I think you’re right, and recognising that some people just aren’t organised people is a valuable emotional skill.
