I like textualism. The point of the supreme court isn't to get everything right, it's to kick badly written law back to the legislators. How do you know the text needs fixing if you don't stick to the text?

Sometimes it is just thrown out to cover bias, but that's not its fault.

I thought it's obvious is Windows, since I dropped Task Manager as a name there. Or to be absolutely purist, my main OS is Windows under VMWare's hypervisor ESXi, but I have all of them (MacOS, Linux, Android, BSD) as guests on different HDD's/partitions.
I think much of the scanning crowd has either 1) abandoned interest in digital trunking systems or 2) switched to SDRs, which is an unfortunate state of affairs as the state-of-the-art in SDR trunking decoders is actually pretty bad.
I’ve used them for regression testing web apps:

Depending on your needs, detecting duplicates can also be useful – especially if you’re using some kind of CV tool which quickly assesses similarity and you want a second check to confirm that the highly similarity matches aren’t hitting some edge case failure mode.

One challenge is that you sometimes want to allow minor differences - think things like text aliasing or slight differences in the pixel values produced by different compression/color handling/etc. implementations - so there are some neat tools like pdiff which try to emphasize differences which the human visual system is sensitive to:

What you are talking about is a salary renegotiation, i.e. the employer offering the employee a new contract at a lower salary for work to be performed in the future.

What had alleged happened in the story is salary theft, i.e. the employer stealing part of the employee's remuneration for work already performed in the past.

I can't speak to India's legal system, but if this had happened in the US then it would be a federal crime under the Fair Labor Standards Act.

Unionization is a valid response to oppressive labour policies. Capitalism can coexist with worker rights in a balance. Both employers and unions engage in rent-seeking so it’s a fair trade-off.

Globalization doesn’t try to uplift human rights. It only seeks to enrich through free trade. Turns out, enriching people is fairly effective at eliminating human rights abuses. Or at the very least, there’s enough of a correlation that it’s worth repeating.
The significance of the term journalist, especially in the situation of Assange’s, has to do with legal protection more than credibility.

I don't see how you expect to sell that particular story to a group of people who have likely sat in the meetings where those BS stories were crafted.

And most of whom have had more than one "oh damn, i thought we were ironically riffing but now I can't tell if they are very funny and very dry or if this person is very new and drank the kool aid and is completely earnest" moments.
All of the SSL 3.0 / TLS 1.0 EXPORT cipher suites are actually limited to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/40-bit_encryption , see for instance page 60 of https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2246.txt

For a while, exports were limited to 40-bit symmetric key strength and 512-bit moduli for DH and RSA. I had forgotten about the limits being raised to 56 bits for a few years before being fully dropped by the Clinton administration.

There was a brief attempt to get around the pushback against key length restrictions with the Clipper chip[0]. The idea was to give everyone 80-bit Skipjack encryption while enabling U.S. law enforcement intercept by having the chip refuse to function if it wasn't shown a valid escrow message (LEAF) for the key it was using. Skipjack was classified at the time and supposedly stronger than anything commercially available at the time. The problem was that LEAF itself only used a 16-bit authentication code, so it was trivial to bruit-force another LEAF message that would work with your session key, but yield garbage data in a wire tap.

"Personally, I do prefer working in the shell, but if you prefer working in a modern IDE, don't let anyone fool you that you're somehow wasting time or being less proficient than you could be in a shell"

I totally agree with that sentiment.

"[...] unless your work entails working across multiple machines and environments daily"

That situation might be a lot more likely than you'd think. I started out doing WordPress, and that's still what mostly what makes me money.

But now that I am using 30-40 different machines that host 3-400 sites, each with their own installs, and knowing how to do stuff efficiently with the shell is super useful.

To me, that situation feels kinda unlikely, but at the same time dang it's nice to just ssh into a machine and know what I'm doing.

I have coworkers and clients who just can't do certain kinds of tasks or troubleshoot stuff with certain kinds of tools because they just don't have the CLI knowledge.

So while I generally agree with your post, I will offer an alternate idea to balance it: if folks are thinking that learning how to use a shell is a waste of time because they can do everything in a GUI, if they took the time to learn the shell at a a level of most of the things they use every day in an IDE, they are "not losing in efficiency at all and possibly making gains when it comes to certain tasks."
Oh, those were the days!
Again, the neurodiversity movement does not claim that every single behavioral health issue nor every manifestation of every behavioral health issue is a good thing.

I like how this is all about you. "Neurodiversity is b.s. because somebody with autism yelled at me!"

In case this is what you need to hear, I am sorry a person yelled at you. That's not fair to you and I am sure it was unpleasant.
Well, except from begging the question when saying that violently smashing object is violence, at least the WHO disagrees, for which violence is "the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or community, which either results in or has a high likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, maldevelopment, or deprivation.", where property damage doesn't qualify as violence.

Also, in judicial systems where the distinction exists, vandalism is generally considered a non-violent crime.
I've been wanting to draw insights from my browsing history for a while, in particular; how my browsing history habits have changed over the course of months - to years. Unfortunately Chrome clears your history after n months which is a pain as I've enjoyed looking at other history visulation tools offered on the web store but am constantly disappointed by the lack of data Chrome provides.

Something I've been thinking about doing for a while is to create a history backup to a user controlled service (probably my VPS with an exposed API and pub key authentication), this could provide a seamless layer of access to help facilitate long term visualizations.

I'm not saying PG asserting some insight is the same as some random person asserting it: certainly PG has some prior we should take into account.

But I think good essays are ones where you don't need to really rely on that prior. A good essay is one that convinces you that what it's saying is true, instead of just asserting it and relying on the reputation of the author.

If an essay doesn't convince you directly, then:

a) the author just didn't take the time to provide an explanation

b) the explanation is too complex, or too difficult to materialize, it's something you just develop an intuition about

c) it can't convince you directly because it's not actually true

If you trust the author on the subject matter enough such that you're in a/b territory, then while I think an essay that explained more would be a better one, an essay that doesn't is still valuable.

But I think at least one concern is that we're actually in c territory. Especially with stuff like "picking winning companies", I'm hesitant to take things at face-value. It's such a complicated thing to predict, it's easy to succumb to survivorship bias. I'm not convinced that PG is just so good at it that things should be taken at face-value.

This has to do with qualified immunity. It's not so much that his rights weren't violated, as that, per qualified immunity, it doesn't matter, because there is not a very close precedent (like, once upon a time, some sheriffs cut apart a stage coach interior with a bowie knife and got charged) that can be used to base a ruling on. If that seems like a strange doctrine to you, you're not alone!

https://www.cato.org/blog/may-15th-supreme-court-will-finall...

I wonder if this ruling does not have an impact on qualified immunity as a sustainable doctrine. In this ruling, SCOTUS has recognized a claim against law enforcement for rights violations not by finding a matching precedent but by reasoning from (recent) positive law.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked_yoga

Naked yoga (Sanskrit nagna yoga or vivastra yoga) is the practice of yoga without clothes. It has existed since ancient times as a spiritual practice, and is mentioned in the 7th-10th century Bhagavata Purana and by the Ancient Greek geographer Strabo.

Early advocates of naked yoga in modern times include the gymnosophists such as Blanche de Vries, and the author Marguerite Agniel.

In the 21st century, the practice is gaining popularity, notably in western societies that have more familiarity with social nudity.

Yoga has been practiced naked since ancient times. In the Bhagavata Purana (written c. 800–1000 AD) it says:

”A person in the renounced order of life may try to avoid even a dress to cover himself. If he wears anything at all, it should be only a loincloth, and when there is no necessity, a sannyāsī should not even accept a daṇḍa. A sannyāsī should avoid carrying anything but a daṇḍa and kamaṇḍalu.” [1]
Alexander the Great reached India in the 4th century BC. Along with his army, he took Greek academics with him who later wrote memoirs about geography, people and customs they saw. One of Alexander's companion was Onesicritus, quoted in Book 15, Sections 63-65 by Strabo, who describes yogins of India.[2] Onesicritus claims those Indian yogins (Mandanis ) practiced aloofness and "different postures – standing or sitting or lying naked – and motionless".[3]

Even for built systems the cost of ownership and maintenance will grow as the system grows. Take the logging example above and say you're using the Elastic Stack. Things are going pretty well and usage is increasing. Over time your system grows and logging is now present in all of your applications. You've seen your logging rate go from 100 logs/s, to 1,000 logs/s, to 10,000 logs/s and now are encroaching the 100,000 logs/s rate. Over time the amount it cost to host your ES cluster has surely gone up. You probably went from a single node cluster when developing the solution, to a multi-node cluster, to now a hot-warm-cold cluster with several more nodes than you originally had. You also have a dedicated team making sure your in-house logging solution is working and stable. The cost of ownership and maintenance of this system is real. Not only do you need to pay for the huge clusters you'll likely have a dedicated team supporting it. Most people I've talked to in the industry don't like maintaining their in-house logging solutions and would gladly pay for one if it wasn't for the fact that it was too expensive to switch then. Because you need specialized people that know this logging solution it's also hard to hire for this role when the person currently maintaining this system eventually leaves (because he doesn't want to do this anymore). At the end of the day it's cheaper to pay for a logging solution even if it's in the hundreds of thousands of dollars a year than it is to build your own.
> As the core developer team, we have come to the conclusion that it is impossible for us to continue to pursue the goal of making radare2 better under the current circumstances and environment, and we decided to move forward on our own and fork the project.

I'm curious...if they are the core development team, what stopped them from changing the environment? Doesn't the core team on an open-source project kind of set the tone and culture for that project? Or am I missing something?
Intentionality is really at the core of Kelly's ideas about the Technium. He (sensibly) doesn't ascribe the Technium with consciousness, but he does assert that as an entity, it possesses something identical to or closely akin to intentionality.

I don't personally agree with Kelly about much of his Technium thesis (although some of his observations are fascinating). But even I were to agree about the Technium having intentionality, I don't think that even Kelly would claim that the current manifestation of that bears much sign of it. What we have now wasn't created by the Technium, for the Technium, it was created by humans, for humans, utilizing machines for purposes we define.

It could be that in 1000 years someone will look back and see the Technium's own designs visible in these things, but for now I would say they are at least invisible and most likely non-existent.

Because of this, I will continue to view the technological world as "human created", certainly for as long as it serves human intents rather than those of the (putative) Technium.

In my experience most certs are only valuable to check the box on contract requirements.
Problem is eventually true information gets labeled as misinformation and then censored. Happened and happens in lots of countries that enforce censorship such as USSR and China.

Everyone has an agenda and when the people who label something as misinformation are in a small group and are unaccountable to the public, it’s almost inevitable this will happen, considering the incentives.
Best is to identify the shell as a solution within your daily work. The maybe obvious step 1 is to switch to an unixoid OS such as Linux or Mac OS. Step 2 is to make the shell easily reachable, for example with buttons to open a shell in your current directory or with a drop-down terminal like http://guake-project.org/

Then, whenever you have some everyday problem (frequently some "batch" or "bulk" job operating on many files), consider using the shell instead some 3rd party tools.

If you really are into it, consider working with suitable files. For instance, drop office files (MSO or LibreOffice/OpenDocument) and instead switch to plain text files (Markdown or Latex). They are much easier to process in the command line. Also consider using git instead of dropbox and friends, because it is CLI-first. There is a universe waiting to be explored: There are CLI clients for almost everything (chatting, mail, web, etc.).

The academic difference is quite distinct and is well understood in the research community there. Impressive vulnerabilities that could take down all of Google wouldn’t be accepted into any security research conferences/journals if the bug didn’t involve a new class of vulnerability or discovery method.

The term “bug prospector” might not be widely accepted, but people just looking for well understood bugs in production systems aren’t doing “research” in the academic sense anymore than a person at McDonald’s “researching” the menu to decide what to eat.

Too much freakin noise on job boards and not enough filters. When I look at say LinkedIn’s job boards I see maybe 20-30% percent spam postings from many different faceless agencies all trying to recruit for the same garbage positions and maybe 70-80% jobs that the board determines as similar enough to my current and previous work which is not always why I want. It’s so bad to the point where I can search for a job completely separate position, completely unrelated to programming and a number of the hits will be generic software development jobs. Now there is one thing I will concede that LinkedIn does alright on the features. There are separate filters for job position and company industry. This is really nice if you’re interested in hunting out something specific. Most other job boards I’m familiar with have all the spam and filter problems without the annoying “smart” features.

Aside from that most of my issues are with job listings themselves and the lack of useful information in them.
I'm sorry if it wasn't clear, but those weren't supposed to be examples to the contrary (it's a matter of historical fact that people believed those myths, and acted based on those beliefs), nor do I have a "post factual" personal philosophy (I'm actually a Rawlsian and a moral realist, which is about as stodgy and non-postmodern as you can get by moral philosophy standards).

The point with that whole digression was to provide a little window into the kinds of analyses that a critical philosopher might do: they're not interested in dismantling history as a whole; they're interested in carving at the joints between phenomena that are taken for granted as conjoined. I think that's important, even if it isn't the kind of research that I personally excel at (or even understand especially well).
It’s not a protection racket, because the person you’re paying isn’t the person who would otherwise threaten you. And an attorney cannot represent both sides. That’s like Professional Ethics rule number one.

Besides, the government doesn’t have the time or resources to criminally prosecute most minor violations of the law. If you end up in a position where you need a criminal lawyer, it’s rather likely you did something really foolish to attract enforcement attention.

And if you can’t afford an attorney, you can always take your chances with a public defender. But I wouldn’t recommend it.

A lot from the 2010s era underground rap scene. A few metal subgebres, mostly doom and sludge and things adjacent to those, a little bit of various punk genres. Also like certain bits from the 90s alt rock scenes. I listen to a little bit of electronic music, though I’m incredibly particular on what I like there. Other than that I likely have few tracks from everything mixed in somewhere.
