You'd need something like a "Sqlite standard" then, with a clear path to how to evolve it taking all stakeholder interests into account. Seems like a job at least as difficult as writing the sofware itself.

(E.g., lack of a standard is why alternative Python implementations never went anywhere, even though the original cPython is, frankly, dreck from a software quality point of view.)
That is completely absurd. I too can "touch" tens of thousands of packages a day. That doesn't mean I can perform compliance on tens of thousands of customer complaints per day. You are simply asserting it is easy without providing actual evidence of how they would achieve this. Sorry, I don't see anything remotely logical in your comment that I can respond to.
All low paying jobs should be automated. I say this coming from the Ag side because farm labour is grossly underpaid and exploitative. But we can’t raise the cost of food because raising cost of food to pay for labour means more people will find food dear.

It’s wages chasing price chasing wages. And we need more and more food for exponentially increasing population with a smaller work force and lesser land. Only solution is to eliminate such jobs and automate field Ag.

And grow indoors as much as possible. Indoor Ag can increase productivity, use less land and water and also can employ workers from an educated pool because automation requires some skill. So we are also tackling unemployment instead of exploiting poor undocumented immigrants and paying them slave wages.

I see amazon warehouse jobs with low pay the same as farm workers doing repetitive manual work. Automate. Automate. Automate.
Are you referring to the product named "Unbreakable Glass Container, AS SEEN ON TV"?
Presumably all medium and large corporations have been hacked. I don't think I've ever worked at an organization that hasn't been hacked. And all but one were hacked multiple times, though I'm sure that's because I just wasn't privy to the other incidents (the company may not have been, either). For criminal organizations it's just a numbers game--penetrate as many organizations as you can and then look for monetization opportunities. For many nation-states the calculus probably looks much the same, and in any event the techniques are similar.
Why the hell do they even have these top secret data over the network? They should cold store anything sensitive.

It’s not enough to explain just only css, we also need an equivalent using css frameworks such as bootstrap, material, and tailwind, since most use frameworks these days
The point was: If they have the power to increase prices because taxes increased, then why do they not increase prices because they want to earn more? If they do have the power, they should get as much as possible! And that's the thing: Their power is limited to what is possible. That's the free market at work actually.

Increasing taxes would certainly increase prices, but not fully compensate.
> You get there, only to find out that there's no there there.

There's the saying "wherever you go, there you are." At some point I ran across the idea that them emphasis should be on the "you;" wherever you go, there you are.

Also, you basically described retirement.
I vividly remember these articles about two-stage review growth hacking for all store being on front page of HN about 8 years ago. So, it's not like there are some other people doing this. It's us.
The in-frame load broke it for me. None of them loaded in on Firefox 84, and some explicitly showed an error saying they weren't allowed to load as an embedded frame. I had to open each site in a new tab to be able to see what it was. Loved the service despite that, tbh.
I always use social logins if I can, much easier for me and no password to remember (even if I use password manager). I think most people (non techie) use social login.
You’re forgetting to add another two hours to get to and from the airports, another couple hours to deal with the security etc lines, and the absolutely miserable experience that is modern days flying.

A train gets you city center to city center, you have all the freedom you want to walk around, and the luggage restrictions are nowhere as drastic (plus you can keep your 250mL drink you got cheap at the supermarket on the way)
Good question! Looks like I might have slipped an internal term in there inadvertently. It just refers to type definition/interface declaration files for objects that are stored in the Redux store, we just happen to stick most of them in a folder that’s been called “models” for a long time.

If you're going to throw generalities: Meanwhile the Right believes a guy named Q, that Biden stole the election (despite Giuliani Total Landscaping providing zero evidence), that there's a furniture store selling missing kids hiding in plain sight... Sure, not all of "The Right", but as I said, generalities.

Your bias is showing, and you're totally blinded by propaganda as badly as you accuse some others.

> Debian is looking to be my CentOS replacement.

To me, Debian sounds like it should be hands down the de facto standard for production environments. It's rock solid, and it sets the bar on reliability.
You are right, looking back at screenshots of these old UE3 games they don't look as good as I remembered.

However Cyberpunk (without raytracing) is not the most beautiful game I played. It has a few nice scenes, the one discussed in the article looks good, but you also have a lot of areas that are nothing special and have very bad performances.
this is literally a developers worst nightmare ... i experienced this one time when we released an android app. the auto updater broke. so we had to phone the customers to uninstall the app and install a new app. now this was with less than 1,000 users. i can only imagine how this would be like for company like Apple.
I am fairly sure they will and can solve it remotely.
You also used Typescript vs Javascript as an example of the kind of thing you were looking for. Since TS just 'adds features' to JS, I think the comparison with CSS / Less is valid.

Also "everyone hates CSS" is a bit of an unfounded and simplistic statement to make and may be why a couple of us thought you were asking a pretty uninformed question.
Note that’s a mode which needs to be explicitly activated by user, and the user is aware of. This is fine.

Because they'll come after me for slander / defamation.

Australian law provides almost no protection for speaking out against this kind of thing. Does not matter if it's true or not, it's still considered slander/defamation because you said something that makes the company look bad.
In the medical school and education field, there have been a number of suicides with generally high-achieving individuals. Although I'm speculating for the others, one student's inability to match to a residency has directly led to his suicide, with a suicide letter detailing the reasons. [1]

Several suicides have occurred during the past few years in the Canadian medical school/residency community, but they do not make the news.

It makes you wonder if the information in this article could have helped them.

Perhaps the key is small scale. The hope is enterprises acting as franchisees won’t want to be in the landlord business, and would rather just take a haircut. Possibly, we work could be more efficient at tenant services, paying for some of their cut by increasing the pie. The power of the network is also valuable as mentioned with the bit about the all access passes.

I still think it’s too rosy, but if we work can reset expectations that it’s a real estate company with those margins, and it’s valued low enough, maybe it makes sense.
Thank you very much. Like a lot of people here, SU was a big part of my internet exploration as a child. This has already given me lots of cool pages to explore!
> What I mean is some technical explanation that it is Russia and how they arrived at the conclusion.

I have no specific knowledge, but essentially, most of the evidence is likely to be circumstantial, with chains of inferences from co-occurences of targets, tools, techniques, and other 'fingerprints', various bits of which may occasionally be confirmed or refuted by humint (which may or may not be reliable).

It is very unlikely that there is any single piece of info that definitively ties the attack to a particular actor (except maybe sigint), and with sufficient effort a false-flag operation can successfully lead to a mistaken conclusion, at least temporarily, but that's harder than it seems.

Any actor that tries to imitate the signature of a different actor by only using stuff from the other guy's bag of tricks is by definition only using tools that have been detected and are known; which means that countermeasures are likely to also be known and in use. Adding anything novel on top of that to increase the chances of the attack's success is incorporating a signal that WON'T be present in the chosen fall-guy's future efforts (unless previously undetected tools can be stolen from the fall-guy), which may (eventually) undermine the desired conclusion.

Figuring out whodunnit requires an essentially Bayesian approach, except the data is usually circumstantial, and priors - themselves always contingent on even earlier data - are of uncertain reliability and must when possible be tested against later assumed-reliable data from other channels for consistency (and when inconsistent, deciding whether new data trumps priors or vice-versa is a bitch).

Nevertheless, given how much data there typically is, it isn't too often that something comes along (like the discovery of a mole, which invalidates assumptions about what the opposition knows, and knows you know, etc.) to upend everything and break or reverse whole chains of inference.

So, while we might eventually find out some of the circumstantial evidence that lead to the attribution to a particular actor, we won't ever be told what other previous evidence (itself circumstantial) ties that evidence to that actor. Eg. "Toolchain X used in this attack is linked to Actor Y, but we can't tell you how we know they are linked. Sorry-not-sorry." ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Admiral A: What happens if they actually discover something groundbreaking?

Admiral B: Oh uh, we better have our people work on it too, just in case there's something there, so we're not left in the dust in case the other people find something first.
Well, not reacting just encourages more attacks.

> Free Software is, largely, Open Source software that also respects user freedom.

No. Open Source software also respects user freedom. OSI definition of Open Source license is pretty much compatible with FSF definition of Free Software license. Those terms are mostly interchangeable - but the whole point is that while technically they're similar, philosophically they point to completely different concepts.

> Unless you are making the claim that the "respects user freedom" part of Free Software is so huge as to make up 90% (or some other large percentage) of the importance of "Free Software"... but I don't really agree with that claim.

That's the exact claim of the article you're commenting under. And I happen to agree with that claim. User freedom is what's important, the rest are just consequences of respecting user freedom.
Lol, didn't invent slavery, "hey we're not the bad guys there!". That sentence is true enough, but it seems large swathes of your population are still proudly defending their ancestors who fought a civil war in order to maintain their ability to enslave people who didn't look like them.
Hands up for anyone else who remembers how much worse this was in the CSS 2.1 days when it had to be hacked using `display: inline-block` and tricks involving negative margins.
Are you implying that using a css framework somehow restricts/prevents you from also using normal css in some places?
That's very interesting. The use case described is for quite a limited subset of sqlite. I imagine a limited query language and kv-store could suffice for the usage described in the article. (Probably could be done in a weekend! wink.)

> Not only is China growing in power and influence, as you point out, it has been investing in American media and other industries. They're famous for playing their strategic game over a long span of time (the long game).

The CCP has actual slave labour camps using the Uyghur people, they have illegally annexed Hong Kong and have been jailing and killing people in broad day light. Several CCP members and Carrie Lam have been barred from International finance that prevents them from funneling their funds to save havens (read: NOT CHINA) and no longer have bank accounts. And you think they're gaining influence over this? Australia is being chastised for asking the wrong questions over COVID, and the countless lies and coverups. Several countries, the US included, have put legislation to take in the outpouring of refugees who are not being jailed for trying to flee, and you think this is gaining them influence in the World?

No, the issue here is that Supply Chains are so deeply embedded in China due to the hollowing out the US economy and its manufacturing so they are the mercy of the CCP's desertion of whether to maintain them, so heads of state who are beholden to their Corporate masters (who created this outsourcing craze) will instead simply try to divert your attention in order for you to just look away. The divisiveness to me serves no other purpose, and they don't need tick-tock to show them that, simply looking at how working class people are getting screwed over by local/state/federal government in the US is enough to enrage any sane person. We're just seeing the delayed aftermath of it.

But be under no illusion: the World HATES the CCP and its horrible Crimes Against Humanity, but this breach is still nothing compared to something like Stuxnet.

The only thing that one can see is the imperative for the World to de-couple from the China, which is easier said then done, and Xi and the CCP know its coming and have made it clear that they are going to start focusing on becoming more insular economy focusing on local demand.

Assuming your counter-attack doesn't make the difference between complex civilisation surviving and being wiped out on Earth, it has the potential benefit of preventing the initiating party from repeating their attack against other nations.

Even if the initial launch was a genuine mistake, there is some value in launching a retaliation because it prevents such mistakes (or "deliberate mistakes") from happening in the future. In fact, seeing how much the mistake costs the initiating party may be sufficient motivation for all the remaining countries to properly commit towards disarmament.

inline-block was cheating. Plus, for a long time after it was "released" you couldn't rely on browsers actually implementing it. I always used `margin: 0 auto` and if you know the height of an element, you can set the top to be 50%, and use a negative margin half its height.

2. Govt is largest overseas aid provider to poorer nations, also on avg, the avg american (normal people not millionares or corporations) give more money and donations to charites around the world than any other industrialized country in the world.

3. The American Revolution helped usher humanity into the Enlightment Period, combined with the writing of the Constitution. Hard to overestimate these contribution to humanity.

* Because in the past, when evidence has been presented, we've seen the federal intelligence community claim absolute certainty when they're actually only mostly-sure.

Yes, it's a new term in the literature, but the fact that it Beyond and Impossible are also newish products is a correlation at best.
