The answer to this should vary by the functionality of the software. If I have a program that calculates projected weight loss and it's only used by me on my computer, crashing or displaying obviously incorrect values from accepting negative values for weight or body fat percentage only impacts me so it's mostly a user friendliness issue. If I'm entering my billable time into my employers time tracking system, anything that could corrupt data impacts more than just me. While I could intentionally lie about my billable hours without detection, I shouldn't be able to accidentally or intentionally enter that I worked -5 hours or 5000 hours on a particular day. Accepting either is undesirable and impacts others.

I'm confused why the parent comment is being downvoted. It's a valid question. It might sound naïve to some but it's still worth discussing.

A backdoor has some malicious connotations to me. Having security profiles controlled by a list seems a thing

Without spending a lot of time sshd has allowLists (AllowGroups) and match directives

Sudo also has per group config

As a user on any operating system what you can and can’t do is controlled by a list

Perhaps the issue is the list isn’t user controlled ?

Perhaps the issue falls into the “I own and control my device” vs “we sell you a safe, foot gun safe, easy to use device (in their opinion)”
I did the following, still comfy with react.

- Got rid of redux because it's shit

- Got rid of Material UI because it's bulky and its API changes are painful, replaced it with tailwind

- Got rid of React Router because it's bulky and its API changes are also painful, replaced it with a simple hook
That's what I think too and I get downvoted all the time for saying that a system on a chip freshly designed from the ground up with mobile use as a goal, with tightly integrated everything and ad-hoc software written on top of course runs great.

Inexperience is less concerning than trying to publicly whitewash the misdeeds of a corporation. I'm not sure you can even chalk this up to inexperience; my charitable guess is he probably didn't look at the code or config, assumed the company he likes would only do something like this by accident, went to twitter to say as much, then got a little carried away in the heat of it.

There are notes in Sapiens proposing that war (the violent kind) is no longer useful / does not produce outcomes because the global economy has shifted from one of physical resources to knowledge based. That it no longer makes sense to fight over things that aren't worth as much these days, like land, oil or gold, when you can just trade. Most of money comes from peace time commerce.

This seems accurate, but time will tell.
100% this. As an outside observer, the US is country with an almost impressive list of societal issues. Inequality aside, it's filled with a hermit-like population with little to no knowledge of the world outside its borders unless they visited it as part of military action, failing power structures, regular school shootings, suicide bombings, riots, an uncontrolled pandemic, insurrection, religious extremists and a volatile political situation, at best. No matter how much danger money you have to build into a salary to attract or keep staff, no thank you.
I don't think the power will return to the People, because the power never belonged to the People in the first place. But I think with social media, outsiders can get a more complete image from a social event other than the official one from the traditional media.
>It’s interesting that Twitter remains online and has access to App Stores and Gab does not. The reason is clear: Big Tech has no principles other than its desire to serve the interests of the radical left and the Democratic Party. They can’t say it out loud so they say it with their actions.

Seems like a strange claim if one looks at the top 10 popular contributors on Facebook[1], and I am very convinced that both Twitter and Facebook have been primary drivers behind fuelling populism in the US by removing gatekeepers. If they're a liberal conspiracy, they're probably the least successful one in a long time.

On the issue of hate itself, obviously comparing absolute numbers on Twitter and Gab is comparing apples and oranges. I suspect the density of hate speech on Gab, that is hate speech in relationship to regular posts is way higher, which creates the (correct) impression that they're way more negligent or even explicitly try to service that audience. That's not to say that Facebook or Twitter don't have a larger responsibility simply because they're larger, but it explains why these fringe networks are such quick targets without resorting to the logic of political coordination.

I thought that border did close briefly? I understand it's a touchy issue, but here we had some rather soft closures between states as well, borders don't have to be binary opened or closed. In some instances people could work permits to cross the border, for others we made virtual borders so people that live near the border could cross but no one else could. At various times we've thrown up some new borders, people couldn't travel from Melbourne to regional Victoria for instance.

Would options like that be viable with NI?

Seems dumb not to use local storage (possibly with a cookies fallback though I wouldn’t even bother).

You can also disable LS, but I don’t know that that’s possible on a per-site basis so it’s an unlikely configuration (and you can fallback same as if cookies were disabled, probably).

in order to justify compelling someone to do business with you after you say something they don’t like.

Like, amazon isn’t actually the basic infrastructure of the internet. You can build web sites and apps without involving them. So why would a law force them to do business with you?
In short, Amazon is not a public utility. Maybe it could be in the future but it isn't right now. AWS is a private business which rents out a server under very clearly laid out TOS to follow. In addition to this, AWS has gone out of their way for weeks (if not months) to work with Parler on their moderation issue that violates the contract.

Parler has shown no intent to work within the boundaries of AWS TOS. Instead of putting in the work of finding and migrating to other hosting solutions (of which there are many) they used stall tactics. When stalling no longer worked, they brought a junk lawsuit against AWS.
They might both be in trouble. AMD is certainly part of Intel's headaches but their loss of relevance also has to do with an overall move away in the market from X86. They never mattered on phones or tablets and Apple just replaced them on their laptops with an in house ARM based design and is apparently outperforming them. That's something that others are likely to emulate. ARM was something for cheap under-powered hardware in the past decade. Not any more. It's now a high end option.

I'd say there's a great opportunity for Nvidia to step up and cut out the middleman (Intel and AMD) and put together some great ARM based hardware running Windows on consumer oriented hardware and Linux in data centers. Given that they just bought ARM, that probably is something they are actively planning to do. Apple just showed us all that the M1 can run circles around Intel and AMD. That's a trick others can pull off too. Certainly Nvidia.

I'd say both Intel and AMD need to make a move away from X86 soon or risk being marginalized. In AMD's case, RISC-V might be a nice lateral move to make. That paired with their GPU as an SOC might be attractive for a wide range of devices. The alternative would be having to license chip designs from their main competitor and making them richer in the process. Sticking with X86 is long term a losing game. People care less than ever about binary backwards compatibility.
Successful Silicon Valley companies have an incredible amount of revenue and profit per employee. Software engineers create a lot of the leverage that drives those numbers. As such, it does not seem like such a big deal if they are paid well (excluding labor market demands). If European software companies are seeing similar numbers, they are ripping off their engineers.
Honestly, no. I found salaries were similar for the same level of role (maybe a little more in dev) but I was able to get much more senior SDET roles which counteracted this. Instead of being a mid-level dev, I was a senior/lead SDET approaching staff level.

Edit: When I made the shift initially from dev to SDET, I had a 50% pay rise. In London I regularly get approached for £85k/$100k roles as an SDET. True devs might earn more than that at the same companies but it’s already much higher than most devs earn in the UK, and I’m not experienced enough to compete for the dev counterpart roles.

They're lying.
I guess so, but the problem is that weed is not the only thing that is sold on these markets...

So even if legalising it would make those markets lose profits, they still have a lot of nasty things to sell -- so taking them down is still the best thing to do for the moment, IMHO.

Management won’t let you. They probably won’t even hire you in the first place.

Some great companies cough airbus cough won’t pay you or consider hiring you unless you have a degree from a prestigious place. And if you tell HR you are not interested in being a manager but stay an engineer they won’t even hire you. Most people in the company produce Word and PowerPoint documents, not code.

The Shadow DOM spec always seemed like a good idea poorly implemented to me.

As well as the form issue, what made webcomponents untenable for me was that you can't use slots without opting the whole component into CSS encapsulation.

Great if you want to distribute components without fear of the consumer's CSS messing with your styles, absolutely useless if you want to extract common patterns in your own app because now you have to duplicate the relevant CSS in every component.
> Globally, the 1957 flu caused about 1M excess deaths. Currently, Covid is attributed to ~2M deaths

No, this is a disingenuous apples-to-oranges comparison. One is a post-epidemic estimate by independent epidemiologists, while the other is a confirmed-positive-death count subject to contemporaneous political pressure and institutional inability to confirm every Covid death.

The contemporaneous confirmed death numbers from any seasonal or pandemic flu are always many times lower than the final estimate, and decades ago it was probably at least an order of magnitude lower. The discrepancy won't be quite as dramatic with Covid today, because a tremendous effort has been made around the world to get Covid tests to hospitals. But it will still be a very significant undercount.

After a couple years once experts have had time to gather and crunch the numbers, the number of Covid deaths from a comparable kind of best-guess estimate is going to double or more. Even in the USA, we are probably missing on the order of 150–200k Covid deaths so far from our confirmed death counts. And the situation is broadly comparable in Europe. But many less developed countries have much less capacity for gathering and reporting accurate numbers, and only a tiny fraction of Covid deaths are being reported in many places.
Please don't take HN threads further into ideological or nationalistic flamewar. Comments like this are just what we don't want here, and we've had to ask you this before.

Main Beneficial Aspects of QA Automation for a Business
Fast and reliable end-to-end testing for modern web apps – Playwright
European management (and specifically accountant managers) see IT as a cost, and view revenue as being generated by sales and marketing.

So if European software companies are seeing those kind of numbers, they'll be very generous to their sales and marketing folks who created those returns, and continue trying to drive down the costs of engineering.

> accessing the internet

is too broad. A C64 with a modem can access IRC and BBS

> minimal modification/add-on

This is a bit broad too. Every modern "add-on" has more power most of the old computer they are attached on.

You could run a proxy on the add-on, that would shrink pictures, html and remove https.

Or even simpler. The add-on could do all the computation and just use the old hardware to show the result.
Per model is what I meant.
Also, politically it's not that simple; in the recent November 2020 referendum 52.5% voted in favour of statehood, a fairly narrow majority. In 2012 only about 30% voted in favour of statehood (ignoring the boycotted and unrepresentative 2017 referendum).

So an actual (slim) majority in favour of statehood is a very recent thing, and not even Puerto Rico itself lacks the 60% required for a senate vote.

People seem to forget this. Imagine asking the people who actually live there what they want...

Apple has no love for privacy nor ever had. They are in a market position where their main competitors - Google primarily, Microsoft and Amazon - are highly dependent on revenue streams extracted by monetizing personal information.

Apple is in a position to cut that stream without affecting its bottom line, so it does it and claims privacy as a core value.

White nationalists and hate groups like the proud boys show up at BLM protests. Why would it be odd that BLM shows up in the mob that attacked Capitol Hill?

BLM, like most civil rights movements, is loosely organized and generally not playing 4D chess. Same applies to hate groups / white nationalist movements, in general. If there’s anything suspicious going on, it’s probably Parler. Seems like Parler was half agitprop and half honeypot. But I’d be willing to believe that this was incompetence & opportunism, since it seems like there’s plenty of incompetence and cut corners to go around. Rich people always fantasize about controlling the media but don’t realize how expensive it is to actually succeed at it, and Parler reads like a 21st century version of a rich family buying a newspaper to try and influence national politics (except it turns out, this is harder than they thought).
I honestly think this is a completely wrong-headed way of looking at things. You are paid what you're paid not because the company is determining what is 'fair' given all of your circumstances, but rather the minimum they feel they can get away with.

Nearly all employees would accept more pay if they were offered it, nearly all employers would pay less if they could - so like any market it is always an equilibrium between the two. And frankly in some job markets the salary is negotiated better than others.

There is a sort of learned helplessness to 'I don't deserve more for this job' etc. in the eternal words of Unforgiven - deserve's got nothing to do with it.
