That's true, but hard to tell when the person hasn't responded. I tend to try (key word) to use the strongest form of someone's argument (not that I think you're talking about their weakest form).

But what I was originally going to say is that the language gets really fuzzy really fast. Like you could argue that sex education is a form of persuasion (though I wouldn't say coercion) and is easily argued as a form of population control. But I think many of us would call that beneficial. I'd say the same with free/cheap and easy access to forms of birth control. I'd say that enables more choice. But if we're talking about a counseling center that guilt trips someone into having the child or not having the child I'd call that coercion and I don't think that's right. But others would call that persuasion and education. So I think this gets messy really quick and a bit of expanding on the thought for clarification is needed.
Please don't go into hourly-billed consulting if your default assumption is to just lie about your hours.

How does this compare to alternatives for learning FPGA? What's the significance of the duino suffix?

When would you choose FPGA over something like an STM32? From what an internet search leads to, they can be faster / do more things in parallel for the price. And you can add capabilities (More timers? More op amps?) with firmware updates. Is this at the core of when you'd choose one?

I've no experience with FPGA, but would like to learn. This is listed as "no longer available for sale". Which dev board do you recommend? Thank you.
The fact that the overwhelming color of every comment on this thread is light-grey tells you there's no middle ground until everything is burned down.
thanks :) There's still a way to go on E2EE UX and sadly, but we're working on it.
> everything except the ad revenue is in essence a cost center

Really?

Seems a very strange thing to think, particularly in a thread mentioning Epic games, who've chosen to allow Fortnite to be delisted from the app store in protest over the 30% commission the store takes on their sales...

My suspicion is that ad revenue in Apple's app store is insignificant compared to revenue from paid app commissions. (I do have nothing except gut feel and some probably obly vaguely informed opinion to base that on...)
Yes, and Gnome is in part responsible for a lot of "desktop" issues with linux. Distros must switch to KDE by default to help eliminate part of this stigma. KDE is so amazingly good that there is no excuse to keep using Gnome.
I've always liked Catholic writer G.K. Chesterton's take:

“Drink because you are happy, but never because you are miserable. Never drink when you are wretched without it, or you will be like the grey-faced gin-drinker in the slum; but drink when you would be happy without it, and you will be like the laughing peasant of Italy. Never drink because you need it, for this is rational drinking, and the way to death and hell. But drink because you do not need it, for this is irrational drinking, and the ancient health of the world.”
I am very concerned about the ease and speed with which they have been deplatformed. I am not a big fan of Parler, but I am a very big fan of free speech, and if the various actors who have driven them out of business can act this quickly in this well-coordinated, what else could they decide to censor?
Show HN: DOM registry for a better DOM Manipulation
I think we're talking about copying-and-pasting files in this thread, rather than text in input boxes, as you're thinking.
There's two questions which we should distinguish:

1. Should there be a bright-line rule - either enforced by government or strong social pressure - about whether people must engage in business with other people, and on what grounds they may discriminate?

2. Should there be a social norm that businesses should try to serve all customers where possible, for the good of customers?

Our society generally answers 1 with that you must refrain from discriminating on the grounds of deep personal characteristics and no otherwise. You cannot throw someone out of your bar for being black. You can throw them out for being drunk and picking fights. You cannot refuse to hire an employee who needs to take a few breaks a day to pray. You can refuse to hire an employee who needs to take a few breaks a day to hire Fiverrs to do their job for them. You cannot refuse to offer credit cards to ethnic North Koreans living in America. You can (and must!) refuse to offer credit cards to North Korean citizens.

This is a sensible position, because it balances the general right to freedom of association / the government not micromanaging your business transactions with the more specific individual rights to participate in society. I cannot change my race, and (we have decided) it's unreasonable to expect me to change my religion. I can (we have decided) change my competence, and I can certainly change whether I start bar fights.

We could decide otherwise, but I think the existing position has a lot of merit.

Number 2 is a more interesting question, but I think the norm of our society is that it should be answered by the free market. We expect that businesses want to serve as many customers as possible anyway because it's the most profitable. Should they decide that they don't want to serve certain customers, it's generally not the place of either the government or strong social norms to say, we wish to override your decision-making process and tell you what to do (apart from the bright-line rule in question 1). Part of the freedom of a free market is that actors are free to decide what to do on their own, including to make mistakes, and no central planning committee tells them what is best for society. We expect this approach will lead to fewer mistakes and a better society.

Again, I think this position has a lot of merit, and we should figure out why we want to change it.

I like searx quite a bit. I would ise it exclusiveley if there was a well functioning instance available. Unfortunately some features (search for files, search social media) didn't work on the instances I've tried, and there seems to be some issue with setting it as your default search engine on android. For me it works fine for a few searches, then at a certain point searchong for anything from the browser bar just redirects you to the sites homepage and you have to start over there. Local results are a bit lacking but this is essentially by design and adding a zip code or whatever usually helps.
Isn't that just the Scrum of Scrums meeting, only at higher level perhaps?
Is this speech illegal?
If you can find out who they are then certainly they could be prosecuted, it's one reason I feel or think that in the future I mostly only want to engage on platforms - decentralized or not - that have an identity verification for the accounts so any bad or unacceptable behaviour can be addressed.

I still juggle in my head as to what kinds of behaviour would be acceptable or not - things like racism, calls for violence would be obvious and go through a review and moderation protocol and start with temporary suspensions (a time out in the corner), and after X offences, then a block or limiting of function until some other remedy is met. Where I wonder how much of a caring hand to impose when necessary are things surrounding say bullying or perhaps someone being non-critical or arguably abusive by simply saying "you're stupid" or other name calling. Arguably I'd want people on the platforms I engage on to be trying to improve themselves, to grow, to improve their emotional regulation and manage that impulse or energy that leads them to calling someone stupid instead into developing a deeper understanding - responding instead of reacting; or realizing engaging with certain people is futile, and to put their energy and passion more into the physical world instead of their keyboard. I wonder how many people are ready for such an environment, for that level of a safe space.

Ctrl+L focuses the address bar. No need to lift your fingers from the keyboard.
Why wouldn't the <enter> key interrupt or freeze the keypress queue? I don't think you need some advanced async logic to get this right.

The only potential downside would be if people expected to be able to cancel the <enter> action. But that would be unusual, I think.
The Discovery boards are a bit of a minefield over which pins you're allowed to use. It can cause surprising problems if you don't check the dev board manual's pin table, or don't know how to interpret it. Additionally, you need to plug the jumpers into the bottom of the board; it looks like you can use the top, but the jumpers tend to fall out!

The nucelo ones are even weirder. The pins aren't labeled on the board, and they're in a weird layout, with some male and others female.

it's not that simple, one has to argue that the whole software is its own work and not simply an extension of the library.

Quoting LGPLv3:

> An “Application” is any work that makes use of an interface provided by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library. Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode of using an interface provided by the Library.

making a simple wrapper of a large LGPLv3 library is a more-than-grey area with the "not otherwise based on" wording.
If you keep them separate (it's configurable), Ctrl-L focuses the address bar, Ctrl-K focuses the search bar. I don't know how these keys behave if you configure it to use a single combined address/search bar (I've always kept them separate).

Note that showing the thumbnails would likely be simple enough. The whole desktop system needs a system for generating and maintaining those thumbnails too. Those systems are always complex and messy (remember thumbs.db?)

A dialog that opens every file in the directory to read the image and show it, won’t be very popular.

So implementing this feature isn’t a change to a dialog but an implementation of something akin to the windows thumbnail cache

> ...but with a good Wayland compositor...

Up until 2020, I didn't use screen sharing all that much, so the lack of support for that wasn't a big deal with using Wayland.

Now days though... this is a problem. I feel sorry for the folks running some Linux desktop that don't know why the option to start screen sharing just doesn't exist in various apps. I can imagine another Linux user saying "but it is right there!" to them, also not understanding why they have it but the person they're talking to does not have screen sharing.
Oh shut up. What a crybaby.
If you drop your expectations low enough, then yes, it's possible. It involves a steady churn state and the idea that "it's just how it is".
Everyone gets bailouts at some level, hence welfare, stimulus cheques, Medicare and Medicaid in the US. More so over here (Brit).

Financial services get very heavily regulated which imposes huge costs, so it is arguable that imposes a certain level of obligation on government. I think that’s a reasonable case, though I’m not entirely happy with the way it’s been handled in practice. It’s not a perfect world.
Folks during the enlightenment were mostly illiterate peasants. Try keeping your sex life a secret when you, your brother, your wives, your parents and 6 kids/orphans all share 1 hut with a single room.

Back in Rome, life was again one room, all share 1 bed etc for most people. Add to that a few examples from their public activity: The poisoner Locusta (the world's first serial killer supposedly) was executed by being raped to death by a specially trained giraffe. Half their pottery is people being killed, the other half is sex scenes. Seriously. You think kids there didn't know what sex looked like?

I don't know why people are shocked by this. It was the Victorians that brought in both the idea of privacy and the idea that sex was sinful and people should hide it.

If you're going to argue for more restrictions on porn, you need to argue from first principles and evidence. You can't harken back to an imaginary time when no one knew where babies came from until the priest told them on their wedding night...
Everybody was not an asshole for the two years this existed and suddenly became one a mere week ago. Strange, innit?
FWIW, `noalias`, aka. `__restrict__`, generally works fine but the inliner translates it into `noalias` metadata which is, still, ambiguous and also not handled properly in some cases. Loop unrolling is one of them but that will be fixed with https://reviews.llvm.org/D92887, a general problem is the ambiguity itself.

There is a major effort to revamp the `noalias`/`restrict` handling going on for a while now. It takes quite long because it is hard and complex and we want to get it right.

The issue is that these platforms have grown to monopolistic or duopolistic size, NOT that a private company has the right to sever a business relationship.

> Why wasn't the FBI ready to swoop and arrest actual violent people given they were posting their plans in plane view?

I assume because the vast majority of such posts were and are fantasies masquerading as plans, and there aren't the resources to set up stings for each such "plan".
I think a lot of people here will say that there should be a decentralized "global" index that any search provider frontend can source their results from. I'm not sure exactly how that would work. But the goal is to separate advertising from the search index itself.
Well, I bought a cast iron skillet about 40 years ago at a local department store (remember them?). Can't remember seasoning it, but probably did way back in the day. I just wash it out with hot water and a bit of liquid soap and a scourer to remove the occasional bits. As good as teflon, cheaper and less poisonous. My favourite pan. I think the main thing is to use it a lot, and don't overclean it. The type of oil seems not to have mattered much, but it's mainly olive, sunflower or rapeseed. As always YMMV.
You probably want a neutral oil for salad dressings, or mayonnaise. You want a high smoke point for any frying(deep, shallow, or stir) you'll do. Every grocery store I've been in has peanut, canola, or avocado, which will all do.
There have been enough mob rule systems in history to prove that saying entirely wrong.

This underlying principle would argue that democracy itself is unjust, and that we cannot, say, have laws against murder simply because the majority of people think that murder is bad. What if it's actually good? Consensus does not infer virtue. Shall we suspend all laws?

The answer is that, while such an argument is technically true, we have yet to find a better way to structure society. Your example of Galileo strongly suggests that we should not hand over this sort of decision-making to princes or priests, which are the usual alternatives to the ballot box. The judgment of the majority is regularly wrong, but it is also the most regularly not-wrong thing we know about.

If you think the majority is wrong, convince them that they are wrong. It will take time. I'm sorry there isn't a better way.

AWS Removing Services for Parler
That $.5 to $12 goes to big tech. That's only a win in the case of very vile advertisers.
Is this true that it was largely organized on Parler?

A Washington Post article said it was very visible on Twitter and Facebook.
Assuming you are referring to the current wave of private censorship in the wake of the storming of the US capitol, I think it’s a false equivalence.

Here people are arguing this looks like monopolistic behavior (that the law attempts to make illegal); and there people were arguing for allowing de-platforming (that the law could be read as encouraging to limit the liability of the platform). This analogy erases the nuance that might make one desirable to society and the other undesirable.

>the existing convention

It is the existing convention, the Mac Finder convention. And yes, it's effectively the same as cut and paste.
You're probably right, but it seems like a shame. I think there's enough difference between the far right, center-right, center-left and far left for more than two parties. This seems like a wonderful moment to fully repudiate the awful aspects of far-right Republicanism.
I think you should go to one of these forums - parler or gab, currently /r/conspiracy, or one of the similar. Try to have a reasoned conversation with them. I really genuinely want more people to do that. Because when you do that you very quickly start to understand there is no reason. On the 5th of January, you would've heard them loudly preach that the 6th will be the "reckoning" the "true patriots" would "rise up" that Italygate was an explosive new revelation. Joe Biden had finally been caught in their trap, that and finally Trump would make his move under executive order blah blah blah. On the 7th of January you would've seen them loudly declaring that antifa undercover agents stormed the capitol to discredit them - despite the fact that storming the capitol is literally what they had been advocating on the 5th. Everything they claimed to want on the 5th was actually a setup to discredit them on the 7th.

There is no logic, there is no consistency, there is only claiming whatever is expedient at the time.
That’s how free speech ends.
> I’d also love to hear if you...

Judging by the downvotes, it would seem the parent comment's request was not asked in good faith. That's disappointing, because I really meant what I said. Obviously extremist groups are problematic, but it doesn't serve us well to be ignorant of their views. One huge example of this is the Trump supporters who had no idea that extremist elements were planning an armed insurrection - by censoring that, all they have to go on is the word of Twitter, which is an organization they already distrust. I have not seen it with my own eyes, but if you look at the screenshots of "hang Mike Pence" discussion happening on Parler, there are less than a dozen people involved in the conversation. That is a very small number that doesn't do much to show that extremists on the platform are a threat justifying the censoring of the service. Again, all they have to go on is the analysis of organizations who they already distrust, who have said Trump's simple statement that he will not be at the inauguration is somehow incitement. Most Trump supporters do not buy that logic, but they might if whatever extremist conversations occurring openly were used as proof to back it up.
What’s really annoying is searching for an app and it shows up in the search suggestions but doesn’t exist. For example, search “Red Robin” in the App Store and there’s a suggestion for it. But what shows up... Robinhood (with a DoorDash ad above it). Turns out Red Robin doesn’t have an app. But then why is it a search suggestion?
