I didn't read it that way. My take on privilege is "currently being in a fortunate state". Doesn't imply you didn't earn it.

I consider myself privileged. Similar story with parents except I was raised by my aunt and uncle who were penniless immigrants to the US. They had their own kids to worry about so I was low priority. Half my clothes came from flea market bins. No tutoring, extracurriculars, etc. I was jealous of kids who could 'afford' $1.25 school lunches.

I would even say that I was privileged at the time that I wasn't raised by abusive alcoholics and that at least my adoptive family valued education. And I never had to worry about starving.

This led to the virtuous cycle where I have a lot of free time today.

I live in Romania now and when people say I'm privileged I agree.
Known big crypto holders whose residential addresses are included in that list should consider taking precautions, up to and including moving.

Crypto communities need to update their collective standard operating manual in light of this incident.

Users should be encouraged to use PO boxes for receiving physical items that are associated with cryptocurrency.

This is also a good reason oppose KYC/AML laws that necessitate, under pain of imprisonment, that crypto buyers/sellers divulge personal information, including their residential addresses and digital copies of their photo IDs, to cryptocurrency exchanges.

Ultimately, the dangers of violating privacy rights is another reason to support libertarianism, and oppose authoritarian political ideologies, whether it's any brand of leftism - all of which have to rationalize some limitation of privacy rights if only to enact the warrantless mass-surveillance system needed to collect their heavy taxes - or police/surveillance state conservatism.
do they have meaning..like coming of age etc? or is it art?
This happened back in the 1970s when some researchers tried to get follow-up information about whether alcoholics can moderately drink again.

Here’s what happened: The paper Sobell 1973 made the bold claim that alcoholics could moderately drink again if given the right kind of therapy. So, other researchers asked: What was the long-term outcome with those patients supposedly engaging on “controlled drinking”?

So this research team including one Pendery asked Sobell for the list of patients so they could perform a proper follow-up. The Sobell researchers refused to provide the list. The Pendery team managed to get the list anyway. The Sobells then sued Pendary and their team to stop them from using the list.

After some litigation, the Pendary team got the Sobell lawsuit dismissed and then followed up with those supposedly moderate drinking patients.

Out of the 20 patients the Sobell study claimed were moderately drinking, only one arguably was still moderately drinking a decade later. Four of those “moderate drinkers” died from drinking too much. Eight were engaging in out of control drinking. Six were completely abstinent from alcohol. And one could not be found, but appeared to be “gravely disabled”.

No wonder the Sobells tried to block the follow up study with lawsuits: Because it showed that those “moderate drinkers” were no longer moderately drinking.

After a lot of effort, the Sobell lawsuit(s) were dismissed and the truth won.

* don't perceive statements the way others do for a variety of reasons

I'm treating it as though this situation is one or the other; but, yes, you're right, I've put enough energy into it.

If you switch to contracting and build up your business you can eventually surpass that in Berlin. I’ve never tried as I prefer to work less and have been somewhere picky about what I take, I think if you just stuck your head down and took every gig you could do pretty well.
Very interesting. How does it work scaling? Possible to have one loadbalancer with multiple servers? With autscaling? Or only works with one server for now?

[..]The Māori language did not have an indigenous writing system. Missionaries arriving from about 1814 learned to speak Māori, and introduced the Latin alphabet. In 1817, Tītore and his junior relative, Tui, sailed to England.[7] They visited Professor Samuel Lee at Cambridge University and assisted him in the preparation of a grammar and vocabulary of Māori. Thomas Kendall travelled to London with Hongi Hika and Waikato (a lower-ranking Ngāpuhi chief) in 1820, during which time further work was done with Professor Lee, who gave phonetic spellings to a written form of the language, which resulted in a definitive orthography based on Northern usage.[8] By 1830 the Church Missionary Society (CMS) missionaries had revised the orthography for writing the Māori language; for example, Kiddeekiddee became, as in the modern spelling, Kerikeri.[9] Māori distinguishes between long and short vowels; modern written texts usually mark the long vowels with a macron. Some older texts represent long vowels with double letters (for example: Maaori rather than Māori); for modern exceptions see § Long vowels below. [..]

SF Bay Area. It's been a couple of years, but, IIRC, 100 or 200Mbps was $65/mo and the same plan with cable TV was $60. I've actually never had any issues with the quality of their service, I just hate the scripted CSR/upsell situation. But that's the same everywhere.

I briefly had gigabit with them for $140/mo, just because I could. (because I've complained for so many years that if I could get gigabit, I would). 1000 down/50 up or similar. But eventually the novelty wore off and I downgraded to 250.

Currently for me, symmetric gigabit is $80/mo with ATT, $90 resold by sonic, but if/when Sonic brings their service directly it's $60.

As a 2 person household, yeah, I'd have a hard time saying 25Mbps down is not enough. It's a lot of work to use 100 down, forget gigabit. And there's a bit difference between filling a 100mbps pipe, and actually being limited by it.

Since C++20, the end iterator doesn't have to be the same type. Instead it can be something like a tag with no own runtime data, and comparing with it can be implemented as asking the other iterator if it is 'out of data'.

I blindly followed a 'news' item's advice once on my home Gentoo Linux that said a particular version of glibc should be removed. Learned the hard way that you definitely want to make sure you have emerged another version of glibc first! Hardly anything works without it (can't even auth as root)

Unfortunately unlike the cool cucumbers in this story, I hastily rebooted, and it took a fair while for various reasons to get hold of a boot disk and get it repaired and running again. I love Gentoo but it does take a lot of patience generally, and this kind of thing seems to happen fairly continuously (which teaches you a lot but requires that you want to learn and solve the problems yourself).

Very few people are that rich. Most people work somewhere and those that do not are essentially dependent on those that do.

Yes, that's a fact of life. The things that people don't want to do are still things that (mostly) need to be done.

Netanyahu ran campaign ads about how he undermined and disrespected Obama, even while getting Obama to give him a record $38 billion aid. He colluded with Flynn and the Russians to undermine Obama and promote Trump. He gets whatever he wants from the US. When he wanted to attack BDS he got the first piece of legislation out of the 2019 US Senate, bill S-1. That's more US political power than Chuck Schumer.

But I wish there was another word for it,
or that racism were not used interchangeably
with systemic racism.

I understand both sides of the argument.

Many people learned an overly simplistic definition of "racism" at some point. Essentially, "overt racism" or "active racism" -- using slurs, joining the KKK, refusing to hire people of a certain race, etc.

Anything less overt than this is not "racism" to them. Having generally steered clear of such actions in their lives, they are dismayed to consider the possibility that there are a lot of other institutions and individual actions that are racist.

We could invent a new term for "systemic racism." But, ultimately, it's still racism. To the people experiencing it, it has the same net result as other forms of racism. If a white person in a predominantly white society doesn't hire you because you're non-white, there's no material difference to you whether that person did it for overt, conscious reasons or otherwise. That is why is it is useful to think of systemic racism as racism, rather than inventing a new word for it.

Here's an interesting thought experiment. Think of the people in your life who are vehemently opposed to the use of the term "racism" to include systemic racism. Suppose we actually did invent a new term for systemic racism so that they could feel more comfortable. How do we think these people would respond?

I think a significant number of them would complain about the new term just as much. I can hear them now in my mind. "First we have to worry about being 'racist', now we have to worry about $SOME_NEW_TERM!?!? What will 'they' think of next?!?"

Because it's not really about words for them. It's about a refusal to examine their own actions.
> People don't like to work, but they hate non-working people even more.

Probably because they wonder how those people are figuring out how to eat without contributing to the economy.

Yea, I don't know why mailchimp is so expensive.

Sendgrid is pretty good. I like it's UI and from what I've seen it has feature parity for things like marketing campaigns.

I think it just comes down to using a combination of strategies depending on the need.

Postfix - internal mailing

Amazon SES - One off emails for things like apis where trust/reputation still matter

sendgrid/moosend/etc - marketing campaigns and they also do transactional emails too, I guess. This should be around 15-30 bucks.

No, that is not what I am arguing. I'm saying that part of reporting claims by public figures is also providing the context of the claims made, so that the reader can make decisions with more information than just the claim (since the claim itself usually does not have enough information to make a decision).

Also, just an FYI, your comment didn't feel like it was written in good faith when I first read it. I had to actively suppress my bad faith detector to write my reply. Just feedback for future comments.

Early OS X was csh I think. It was definitely something weird and antiquated.
Any kind of generator is basically like this. Imagine one for listing the contents of a directory... maybe it looks like this:

class DirectoryChildren
{
void *dir;
void *buffer;
size_t buffer_size;
size_t buffer_offset;
...
public:
bool next(FileInfo *info);
};

Bear in mind the buffer only represents a chunk of intermediate results fetched from the OS; when we reach its end, we have to request more data from the OS.

If you had to make an iterator for this, what would you do? You'd basically need to either (a) create iterators that at least duplicate the entire state of DirectoryChildren on the stack, or (b) make iterators allocate on the heap. Both of these suck, because (1) iterators are passed around and copied all over the place on the assumption that these are fundamentally cheap operations, which is an assumption that easily breaks (like here), and (2) the iterators fundamentally do not have any meaning or utility as separate entities from the range itself.

To get such changes reliably with low latency, I presume you were modifying the DMA buffer, without any syscalls or other mechanisms to synchronize between the CPU and the NIC's processor(s), right? Did you just set up the race condition such that when you got bitten, it resulted in a failed checksum, or was the time window so large that in practice the race condition never bit you?

I did. I got a Lumia 1020 because it made a clear setting point other than "it's 5% faster" with the insane camera design. I think it replaced a Galaxy SII LTE variant which was a quivering mess software wise. I then got a 635 when the screen broke and it was too costly to repair locally, and a 640 when they were selling them for like 30 bucks on Black Friday one year.

I appreciated the consistency in design and that even the cheap devices like the 635 felt quite snappy. They also seemed a bit more coherent with update support. Yes, the no WP7->8 update path was a huge mistake, but I think by the end they were updating the OS for all WP devices (capable of being updated) centrally, rather than relying on the OEMs; the WP10 update betas I tried seemed competent enough but there was a growing sense their heart wasn't in it.
> To add another opinion. I love gnome 3, Its by far the nicest DE I have used on linux and what I would recommend to anyone to start with. I have used XFCE/Mate/Plasma/Unity and none of them worked as well.

Sure, XFCE doesn't work as well as Gnome 2. But you can't use Gnome 2 anymore. XFCE is way better than Gnome 3! (At least, as of the time Gnome put out version 3.)

And yeah, this indicates a very serious problem on the part of Gnome.

Two journalists were killed for being with people committing no hostile actions, the soldiers involved in the actions laughed and taunted those they slaughtered, the government then lied about what had happened for years, and the only people to face punishment are Manning and Assange.

When exactly does the US give a shit about killing journalists?

Might you consider a tabletop RPG game (TTRPG) rather than a computer game? Espionage, more than anything, is about human nature, unexpected situations, creative use of information, and matching wits with other people. The significant advantage of a TTRPG over a computer game is that the 'AI' for a TTRPG is human. No AI can come close for creativity, versatility, and of course human nature.

To add an essential distinction: I mean OSR-style (Old School Renaissance) TTRPGs. For those familiar with 'modern' TTRPGs, like the 5th edition of Dungeons & Dragons, OSR interactions are minimally defined by rules - powers, stats, skills, proficiencies, etc.- relatively few of those exist. Most of it is free-form improvisational interaction between the players and dungeon master (DM). For example, if you want to find something in a room, you don't roll something based on your perception score (you don't have one); it's up to the player, who can do anything at all. You tell the DM what you do ('I examine the bookshelves more closely - what condition are they in?'), and the DM tells you how the environment responds ('the old shelves don't sag at all while there's a thick layer of dust on them, except in a couple of places'); ('what books are in those spots? I stand to the side and nudge one gently with the tip of my walking stick, at arms length') ... There are plenty of guidelines for the DM to deal with all the different situations, but it's really up to help the DM to respond. The players, as I said, can do whatever they want without even knowing the rules for many purposes.

Another way of conceiving of it is that it's a collaborative story where the player controls the protagonist and the DM controls the rest of the world, and they improvise together - both experience a lot of dramatic tension, not knowing what the other knows, plans or will do. Hopefully, I'm describing it well enough that you can see how it would play very well for an espionage setting.
This doesn't make sense to me. Surely scaling the window according to the settings that apply to the monitor it's on is a job for the window manager, and not a job for the software running inside the window?

Probably time to relax the laws on defamation a little bit, to prevent cases like these. The laws date from a time when access to media was hard, and just getting your thing published was an impossible amount of work. Now that we have social media, it's not clear that we need the law to "protect" us here. If someone writes a hit piece about you, can probably get more people to read your defense. That's new, and the laws haven't been updated to account for that.

Thanks, that was helpful. I suspect the reason it ends up being dead weight is that it doesn't make much sense to prevent an API customer from using an iterator with certain performance characteristics with certain algorithms. Ultimately, the onus is on the developer to know something about the data; for instance, why wouldn't I be allowed to use any iteration algorithm on my slow-to-increment iterator if I know the length is 1?

So long as it's safe I think it's on the designer to make sure it's efficient, and I suspect that's where the API has gravitated to.
