Am I interpreting this correctly that on and after v7.11 users won't be able to use Amazon Elasticsearch Service (unless AWS contributes back)?
There are many packages that compile some kind of tools and then run them to produce other things necessary for the build, possibly several layers deep.

In theory you can set up the build system to correctly know which things should be compiled native and which should be cross-compiled. Sometimes you even need native and cross-compiled versions of the same thing.

In practice, this is a capability that few people use and even if everything is set up correctly at some point most people contributing patches do not think about or test maintaining the ability to cross compile and it gets broken.

When you're building hundreds or thousands of packages for a distro such as Debian or Fedora this is a huge problem.

Building natively in a full system emulator or on real hardware is the only way, in practice.

>Violent protests that did not lead to the death of a single police officer.

Nice way to move the goalposts. How many people were killed in the protest? Aaron Danielson was ambushed and murdered by antifa Michael Reinoehl in Portland.

>I mean, how violent could they have been.

The "protestors" were using blinding laser weapons against the police. That's not even permitted in war, there's a 109 nation treaty against blinding laser weapons.

Anyway, there's a 22GB torrent of riot videos out there now if you need a memory refresher. The largest file in the torrent is 6.2 GB of Portland videos. Portland was months and months of violent riots and murders.

More or less a modern replacement of Doxygen. The goal is to make writing good documentation easy. To accomplish that we've incorporated Markdown pages alongside the documentation, a modern and lightweight theme, Algolia-style search, minimal configuration, and simple deployment/CI integration.

Spent the second half of last year in alpha, putting the finishing touches on the release candidate now and hope to release this month.
I think both are a rightful condemnation of previous video conferencing "solutions".
SSPL isn't being used as an alternative to permissive licenses (e.g. MIT). It's being used to shore up the holes that AGPL doesn't cover[1], to enable the business model of "free for small guys, paid for by the big guys".

People want a license that says something like, "you can only use this if you also contribute to the commons, or if you pay for the privilege not to". SSPL is an attempt to be that. Maybe it doesn't do that job well, but don't confuse it as competing with permissive licenses.

Fractionated walks like these are still very different from sustained 10-20 (or even 40min) walks.
For reference:

Flip – An entire egg

Nog – An entire egg plus dairy

Sour – Egg white only

Fizz – Egg plus carbonation

Optionally, but less common: Silver Fizz (egg white), Golden Fizz (egg yolk), Royal Fizz (whole egg) + carbonation.
That's all fair and I agree!

But I think it's unfortunate that companies end up with licenses like SSPL which are lengthy, not legible to non-lawyers (see this thread) and more importantly ambiguous in favor of the SSPL-software-provider. It's only natural, that's what lawyers are hired to do, after all! But I think there are other options (be ambiguous in favor of the opposing party, or build upon existing licenses)
It can be possible, JetBrains Toolbox seamlessly auto updates but I'm not sure how they achieved it. On the other hand, maybe it is not so easy, I wish use the rpcs3 AppImage and have never had success with it's built-in update feature.

If you aren't modifying the ElasticSearch source code, then you don't need to care about any of this conversation at all.

If you add search to your webapp using ElasticSearch, you typically would not be modifying it, and so any source distribution burden that could possibly be compelled from you in a worst-case scenario would be for the unmodified source code that you freely downloaded from a public website. No local modifications? No violation of terms. End of line.

While that's a slight risk of having more burden than not having to provide that source code, it's not like it contains anything proprietary, because you probably aren't modifying it anyways — and once you divulge that source, it's proof that you not only did not violate terms, but could even request legal fees.

So whether or not this search usage would qualify, which can only be definitively decided in a court of law, your actual risk of harm and exposure is none whatsoever — unless you have proprietary patches to ElasticSearch and you aren't already sharing them openly in a GitHub fork. (I'm not your lawyer, etc.)

Much I would like it to be true, from the little I've read it seems that plenty of universities/colleges were originally religious in nature and were intended to defend orthodoxy, even to combat specific heresies. Definitely not to take intellectual risks.
Mafia bosses don't order someone killed either.

Nevertheless, there was an insurrection on Capitol Hill whereby a few thousand people did overrun with the intent to stop the electoral process (and with a few others planning much worse).

So it's established there was an insurrection in his name.

Now:

He called people to Capitol Hill from across the country specifically to protest the electoral validation.

He publicly stated on many occasions - without factual evidence - that the election was stolen, giving his audience what they believed to be the credibility necessary to make very aggressively legitimate grievance.

He condemned his on VP for failing in his duty (to commit sedition?)

He called on protesters to 'fight fight fight'

He called on them to commit 'political combat'.

He called on them to 'walk down Pennsylvania Ave' with him.

During the insurrection he didn't call in the National Guard, nor convene with Mike Pence, he wasn't publicly trying to get them to stand down, rather, he was on the phone with Republican Congressmen (who were in lock down facing threats to their lives!) pressuring them to stop the vote count, which would be illegal obviously.

The President - at that moment - was a willing participant , along with the protesters, in an attempt to overthrow the Republic - which is a coup.

This is Standard Authoritarian Playbook, it happens all the time, just not in places we pay attention to.

I don't believe Trump planned a coup, but he put all the conditions in place and lit the match, and when it started to burn, he acted directly against his responsibility as President, and instead, acted with the insurrectionists.

If, at the moment of insurrection, he were to have stepped in and quashed it all - which he could have done but chose not to - then the argument could be made that 'he didn't mean it, it just got out of hand'.

His statements on Twitter were a primary vehicle for this insurrection ergo, a ban, which as Jack says ... 'is complicated'. No doubt. And of course there's hypocrisy and bias with him and the rest of social media.
Yeah it's definitely a huge risk. It's really a question of whether the expectation of the Schelling point is around quality of meme-worthiness.

I think the shorting will help with this, but I think the more critical thing is getting the initial community right to set expectations of what's upvoteworthy. Kind of how y'all started reddit around a programming community.

My anecdotal experience is with Palantir (software used in war zones). Between 2016-2018, they eliminated most of the 150-200 QA people they had. Testing is now done by devs and users with the help of sound CD principles like blue/green deployments.

My original point was in response to OP's saying that not every paper needs to be brilliant. The thing about "normal science" is that begins with more or less verified theories and extends their theory and practice - until they fail, reach the edge of the theories, and the science community must search for alternative hypotheses. Machine learning is more working with a bunch of practices, rules of thumb and suggestions for doing practices. These can't really fail since they're roughly repeating themselves in different domains. The problem is that can be done forever and you never need new theories or approaches.

So I'd claim we're really at the situation right now, at the exploring new ideas, the "crisis of science" phase where essentially people have to start brainstorming (and not all ideas are good here either but they need to be somewhat original).

All this is using Thomas Kuhn's Structure Of Scientific Revolutions model very roughly.
To transcode the video, yes. I could also download the created webm directly but twitter for example is very restrictive about video formats. The webm won't work there. On linkedin it actually would work directly.
This sounds a bit complicated, and I would naively assume that some people would upvote low-quality content that is likely to reach the frontpage (which reinforce the cycle).

How about checking algorithmically how reliable users are, and weighting their votes that way? The manual redemption of correct-upvotes and acquisition of downvote-shares seems a bit much in my view.

This is our startup which aims to make the experience of buying, managing and living in a house easier for owner, investors and tenants. Consolidate all transactions, paperwork, reminders and legal advice in one place.

We are looking to provide a single UI for tenants, home owners, property managers, service providers and investors to manage their entire workflow and also communicate with each other.

- Tenants and landlords are able to communicate with each others
- property owners and land lords can find all the forms needed and fill them in, screen tenants, and manage all the finances, insurance and other paperwork from one place
- managed expenses associated with the property
- check if it makes sense to refinance or not

The app is a React-redux front end with the backend in NestJS with Mongo as the data store. The website is in NextJS (it is being updated in the few weeks)

We have had a lot of fun building it so far and we feel that the potential is so huge.

We have also gotten some feedback from users outside North America so we'll expand to Europe, Turkey, India and South Africa soon.

Yeah, so they’re not really competing with Elastic right? If I already have an AWS environment I’m never going to use an Elastic hosted service, since it’d be outside my VPC.

I really don’t understand how that business model works.

I'm working on a utility to archive and organize old data that I want to keep forever, but I don't want cluttering up my local hard drives and Dropbox account. The initial goals of the project are:

* Design for cold data only. Stuff that is done changing and won't be accessed regularly if at all: completed projects, annual financial records, RAW image files organized by month, etc.

* Store items in flat collections, not in folder hierarchies. Store directories as compressed archives. I'm not a librarian and I find folder hierarchies difficult maintain.

* Store everything such that the data will still easily accessible even if the index is lost or the software stops working. Use well-known formats and human-readable file names.

* Automatically store data in multiple locations, including S3-compatible services, Amazon Glacier, file servers or locally. Allow each collection of items to have its own mix of storage locations.

* Organize within collections using tags and metadata.

* Provide a simple checkout system to download items when needed.

I have the core features working and I am now building the desktop application, which I intend to be cross-platform. However, I've never written a desktop application before, let alone a cross-platform one, so development has slowed while I learn and experiment.
You're saying that you can add your long term goals and you would split it into more and more smaller parts finish could be at the end even daily tasks? Interesting. Would you combine this with daily operational tasks or would you handle them separately?
Also, note that Google prohibits all use of SSPL just like it prohibits use of AGPL: https://opensource.google/docs/thirdparty/licenses/#agpl-aff...

It also prohibits use of Business Source Licensed software, but as source code under that license will always after at most 4 years transition to a GPL compatible license, all such code will eventually be possible to use at Google and one can easily maintain a GPL-compatible fork that merges code in as the BUSL expires, thus enabling a good exchange between BUSL and open source, whereas no such exchange is possible with SSPL, its forever stuck in a AGPL like license and most companies generally stay far far away from AGPL.

Greenwald is permanently wearing some kind of Democrat-hatred goggles that render everything he creates spastic and aligned with fascists purely to take the piss because he’s bitter.

I don’t think he could even see eye to eye with himself in the mirror at this point, he such an incoherent mess of poorly constructed anti-Democrat gripes.

I would trust Poitras’s take on this way, way more than Greenwald’s.
He’s just saying it’s possible to do so.

This claim that Apple are tracking your location because they use TCP/IP to receive connections, has been made many times now.

Nobody has so far presented evidence that Apple does in fact geolocate people or even that they persistently store IP address information related to user accounts.

I don’t know for sure that they do not, but I do know that they are aware that keeping IP addresses is a potential privacy leak, and so at least some of their services are definitely designed to scrub ip addresses from records at the point of ingestion and replace them with anonymized keys before they are passed on to services within the company.

So they know that keeping IP address logs is a potential privacy issue and are working to alleviate that.

I would be surprised if they do this for everything yet, but as far as I can see Sneak is making only a theoretical accusation, and not one which he has more than speculation about.

As far as I can see, statements like these...

“Apple knows when you leave home, or arrive at the office, or travel to a different city, all with no Apple ID, no iCloud, and no location services.
This has always been the case on all devices using iOS, too.”..

...are complete bullshit as written, even though we can’t rule out the possibility.

“ Apple doesn’t retain a history of what you’ve searched for or where you’ve been.” is on Apple’s privacy page here: https://www.apple.com/privacy/features/

So if someone can find evidence for such accusations, perhaps there is some legal liability for Apple.
As I've heard so often in the last few months, "freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences". If they intend to hide behind legal minimums, that is their right, but society is free to retaliate in other ways.

For instance, their (and all other social network) S230 liability protection could be tied to specific conduct, such as no arbitrary bans.
Now I'm curious what Apple and Netflix has done to deserve being considered as more evil than Google.

Do you seriously believe women will suddenly view a physically unattractive male as sexually desirable just because they got an introduction? It doesn't happen.

Raw sexual attraction is not something one builds towards with friend/family introductions/referrals and good hygiene. It's a visceral, almost animal-like condition that manifests at the drop of a hat and physical appearance (face, height, build) is _the_ most (if not the only) important attribute.

Those that have won the genetic lottery are smooth sailing. The sky is the limit.

I agree with the overall principle, but SSPL's wording itself is very problematic. They need to do a much better job in disambiguating (1) what is considered hosting vs just using and (2) what are the obligations of a hosting service in order to abide by the license. The license is simply too vague about these points, and the generally agreed upon lines today might not hold up the first time someone goes to court over it.
