Do you have numbers on how many children were separated from their parents? How many parents were repatriated without their children? How many kids died in custody and of how many they lost track of?

When you think about that, do you feel comfortable at endorsing the policies that caused kids to be permanently separated from their parents? Kids that died without the comfort of being with their families?

Strange arguable libel aside, you don’t have to compile your wm or terminal every time you make a change. There are awesomewm (and echinus and spectrwm and Qtile et al.), and
xterm and GNOME Terminal and guake and konsole and xfce terminal and Terminator and Terminology and Tilda and Yakuake and rxvt et al., many al.: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/List_of_applications/Ut....

Setting all those aside, you can configure any decent text editor to run `make` whenever you save, and I dare you to find any combination of patches for any single suckless software (except surf) that takes more than 1000 milliseconds to compile with tcc on a computer you use on a regular basis (should work for any normal desk/laptop from the past decade or two).
I guess I have different thoughts about what the basics are. I would advocate to start with assembly, but I’m biased because I started with assembly. Things like what is memory? What is a register? What is the Program Counter? What (really) is the call stack and how does it work in memory? Fetch-decode-execute? Jumps, conditional branches, loops. Address modes.

If you know these things, then you know how the computer actually works, and a lot of the mystery of C is behind you already.

Then you can start introducing stuff that’s built on top of it all like types, if statements, pointers... build the building from foundation up, don’t start on the second floor and tell the student not to go downstairs yet.
> they don't openly support

What's the definition of openly support you're using? Going off the party platform, it seems like they do:

> unions

> strong workers' guaranteed rights

https://democrats.org/where-we-stand/party-platform/building... see the section "Protecting Workers and Families and Creating Millions of Jobs Across America"

> universal free healthcare

Except for the word "free", https://democrats.org/where-we-stand/party-platform/achievin... makes their position on universal health care clear. Exactly how the cost gets shared by society is something that's a bit more nuanced (there's no way for it to be completely free; the question is how much is funded by taxes vs other fees).
I thought it was about putting comments on a website that saves them forever.
I think your comment gives the misleading impression Von der Leyen was not elected at all. So for readers who may not know the system:

Von der Leyen's appointment, and the EU Commission, were both subject to approval votes by MEPs of the EU Parliament, who are elected by EU citizens in all member countries using proportional representation.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_der_Leyen_Commission#Elect...

> On 16 July 2019, European Parliament took a vote on the proposal by the European Council and elected Von der Leyen with 383 votes (374 votes needed).

> The Commission was approved by European Parliament on 27 November 2019, receiving 461 votes, with 157 against and 89 abstentions.

You do not need to be the best civil engineer in the world to recognize that a new bridge design falling on its first day is a totally inadequate bridge. Similarly, you do not need to be a security expert to recognize that 15 months of active undetected infiltration demonstrates a nearly comical inadequacy. To provide real material mitigation you would likely need to be in the hour to day range at most to actually stop a double-digit percentage of value-weighted exfiltration. This even ignores the cases where they just want to damage your systems which would generally only take minutes.

Now maybe nobody can do that, maybe these systems are the best available, but even if that is true that does not suddenly make them adequate. Adequacy is an objective evaluation of reaching a standard, if nobody can reach the standard, then nobody is adequate. We would not let somebody use a new untested material in a bridge if it can not support the bridge just because "nobody knows how to make a bridge that works with the new material". And, by any reasonable metric, an inability to recognize active infiltration for months indicates that against a threat actor similar to what attacked them, they are about as adequate as a piece of paper against a gun.
This is a nice first cut at a curriculum in that it captures a lot of important topics, but it's far too blocky. For example, I'm glad they put computer architecture in the first year, but I don't think there's any reason to go through the entire set of Carnegie Mellon lessons on computer architecture for a computer science curriculum.

I think a more subtle approach of introducing the basics, say, for computer architecture, a simplified CPU model of an arithmetic logic unit, registers, and flags, so you have a feel of what your programs are running on. Then get back to programming concepts. Go deeper into computer architecture later.

If you really want a curriculum, you have to take the broad topics, present the introductory lectures, then create sections for more specialized topics with links to lectures that go into more depth, and maybe add prerequisites to those sections.

I've recently built an open-source framework to automate and manage review apps (on-demand, ephemeral staging environments). It uses various technologies stitched together including AWS infrastructure, GitHub Actions, and client-side code with Service Workers. All of this is backed with a straight-forward CLI. For more information you can check out the case study I co-authored here: https://stagehand-framework.github.io/. Happy to chat more about this project or any of my qualifications if it interests you!
I guess you're not a fan of "du", "df" or "su" either.
Can you run Catalina instead of Big Sur? Intel MBP13s are still shipping with it, and in my experience it runs better than Big Sur.

This sounds unreasonable, but it feels like a case where you don’t win either way.

Updating and changing rules reflects improving and novel knowledge. This is preferable to blindly following methods where disproved.

Rapid changes likely damage trust, increase confusion, and risk poor compliance.

A balance of the two is pragmatic, but it still seems to be new ground.
Yes, 'break the compile' is one great way.

Another is not to keep going until you get to a neatly wrapped up stopping point. Leaving something partly done makes it fast to get back into the groove--just make it clear what's completed and remaining.

I agree with you so far...

> That is where the essential worker argument comes into play.

This is where you lose me. As I understand it, essential workers can continue working whether or not they're vaccinated (yes, some will get seriously sick, but it won't significantly impact the economy). Rather, we want to vaccinate them earlier than non-essential workers because they're more vulnerable by the riskier nature of their work. However, they're not more vulnerable than the elderly and yet the CDC recommends prioritizing them over the elderly because the elderly are disproportionately white while essential workers are disproportionately non-white. At least, this is how I understand the argument.
I was joking at the time Disney bought LucasArts they did it in part to clear Pixar to sell Coco because of similarity to Grim Fandango.

The flipside is probably accurate now though, at this point Disney would probably be unlikely to greenlight a Grim Fandango film because they already have Coco.
I mean, there were literal Nazis there. Several people were wearing "6 million was not enough" and "Camp Auschwitz Staff" shirts.

I actually like suckless software and I'm a little (lot) annoyed by the overwhelming "sides" of politics, especially the left because a lot of US tech comes from a left wing belief and sometimes people online beat me over the head with it and make me annoyed.

But, to be clear, there are three things here:

1) They're doing a Tiki Torch walk, during a time when it was heavily politicised.

2) They're adapting Nazi slogans as hostnames

3) They're denigrating "Cultural Marxism".

Any one of these alone I would probably defend, but 3 is a pattern and not a good one.
Okay, I can clarify here. I meant to say, my accountant fees range from about $1200 - 2800 a year. $400 was an off the cuff estimate and admittedly way off. You got me ;) I would still happily pay $3500 to not spend hours a year entering innocuous expenses into a fucking text editor.

This is desirable. I like that my discord conversation will be gone in a few years. They serve little purpose being archived anyway. Old IRC logs are a horrible thing to search for help anyway. Much better just picking a forum/reddit post on the same issue which will be better sorted.
I know this is a heated topic but I really don’t understand what the other options are. Having businesses dictate who they want to serve seems like censorship but having the government dictate it seems way worse. I’m not sure how to decouple or balance the freedom of will as a business, freedom of will as a person and the societal mandate of the majority (which is how democracy works? It’s always about the majority values).

If you experience symptoms you should start isolating, regardless of the results of a rapid test.
It's been awhile since I've tried it, but the first thing that comes to mind is not being able to put a file on the desktop.

I completely understand and even vaguely agree with their reasoning, I stopped putting icons on my desktops maybe 10 years ago?

But sometimes I just want to put a temporary file on my desktop as a visual reminder to finish something up later.

In this case it's not the same class of 'bug' as the missing thumbnails in gnome's file picker, it was a deliberate design decision, and I respect that the project thought about the experience they want to create and executed on that vision. It's just not the experience for me.

Actually, I somewhat agree with you. In the interest of time, I had to just stop at "Obviously, this can be difficult to measure". I find this allocation of resources problem very interesting, but I don't claim to know the answer. You can even flip it around the other way and say "Actually there really isn't anything more valuable they could be doing." It sure seems however there is a ton of brain power being used for things that would benefit society more elsewhere, but who knows.

I find this somewhat incomprehensible. Why the bias for seeing and archiving everything? The implicit model, which is right there in his title, is "talk", which is not naturally archived.

I've built products just fine using verbal communication nearly exclusively. [1] We don't need to create some sort of panoptic archive of every conversation ever had to get things done. If people miss things, they miss things. We can catch each other up on the parts that truly matter.

"Criminalizing unpopular speech" is a peculiar way to answer to "some speech might be harmful".

Is sharing someone else's private information, publishing outright lies about safety of vaccines, or claiming some ethnicities or nationalities are subhuman and should be murdered right now "unpopular speech"?

I mean, I sure as hell hope it is unpopular!

But it is much more than just "unpopular speech". Framing it like "criminalizing unpopular speech" makes it sound like someone wants to criminalize saying "I think the Twilight series were genuinely good movies." but we're talking about people saying "All those <insert slur> should be killed."

And yet, you are right that in some cases this happens - for example when some US states decided to solve problem of people complaining about animal cruelty by making filming on farms illegal. That's a complete bullshit and it is harmful to the society.

But people who incite violence and Antivaxxers who actively hurt people by spreading diseases? I don't think so.

I've tried Epiphany, but it's still too bloated for my preferences, not customizable enough and I'd like to keep GNOME packages out of my system. :)

Luakit is more to my liking, and I think I gave it a try a few years ago but can't remember what put me off about it. At first glance it has features I don't need like adblocking (I use a DNS blocker on my router) and tabs, but it's promising. I'll give it another try, thanks.

I've also tried a few of these libwebkitgtk wrappers like qutebrowser, dwb, lariza, uzbl, etc. but they all had some drawbacks compared to surf.

And I can't say I trust the Palemoon or Waterfox developers to maintain a Firefox fork. It's a gargantuan job, which is why I prefer the relative simplicity of the WebKit wrappers. Ideally I'd like to switch to a simpler rendering engine as well, but sadly the modern web is built with WebKit compatibility in mind.
Border closures don't have to be all or nothing. In Australia we closed borders between states but allowed work permits in some places and had fuzzy borders (people within 100km could cross) in others.

I'm confused. What are the differences between Slack and email? Both are generally displayed on a relatively small list where new messages eventually cause old messages to be hidden. Those hidden messages are still accessible if you try, both with similar processes (assuming you're using an email client with text search like Gmail).
Hilarious - it should be abundantly clear that Twitter are the guys.
I don't think so. There's a big difference between a reactive censorship of a single powerful person by Twitter and the proactive censorship of an entire population of people with very little power by a government -- both functionally and philosophically.

Trump can summon a press conference 24/7 and have his message broadcast to the entire world. He controls publication on multiple personal and government websites. What comparable publication powers do the people of Uganda have besides social media?

The impact of censorship is only relevant in the context of power.
