The only car thefts in my small city (~40k) this year were from a 14yo and a 9yo duo that were taking stuff people left running, driving a few blocks over and then going over it for anything of value.
Why would a company keep doing business with someone that went to their bank and accused that company of fraud? Making a chargeback is a serious claim of malfeasance by the company that has to then be arbitrated by the third party bank. It’s not a mechanism for getting a refund; it’s an accusation of fraud who’s remedy may include a refund.
Indeed, the use of BinayBuilder was an important step forward. Before we had the problem that different package would require different versions of e.g. zlib (https://github.com/JuliaGraphics/Gtk.jl/pull/387). BinayBuilder made the package installation mush more robust.

> I've seen Windows do that too.

Really? I have never seen this in Windows. Don't get me wrong, I've seen plenty of lock screen failures in Windows, usually in the form of it suddenly being unresponsive, just never anything that actually gave me access to the locked session again.

The closest I've seen is when using RDP, if the Window has been minimized or hidden or otherwise has had reason not to update its display, then locked due to timeout, it will briefly show the last image it rendered when reactivated before updating and showing the lock screen.

P.S.: As other users have pointed out, Windows does have some known lock screen bypasses using accessibility and help dialogs, but in regards to merely crashing the lock screen, I haven't seen it behave in an insecure way.

What if somebody will build a GraalVM-based browser? That would be something. Anyway, W3C recommends WebAssembly but does not impose it. It is not too late in the game because WASM doesn't even have DOM access, yet. And also people are still using browsers that are not WASM-ready. How many people actually compile their libraries to WASM today? Aside to early adopters scattered around Rust and Emscripten.
For now. Apple will transition all processors over to M-Series in the coming 2 years; probably finished earlier.

You've pointed out that you have to absorb information to be able to get to a point where you can engage with a topic - but also, there's value in having beginners discuss and analyse stuff, because they're not set onto the paths that other experts have and would be more able to connect disciplines or arrive at an insight that others might not be able to think of.

People have been called terrorists for domestic acts for decades without any effort at legislation to make that a specific chargeable crime, and nothing in the way people are referring to the insurrectionists at the Capitol as domestic terrorists is any different.
The whole thing was started as a deliberate meme by /pol/ to take an innocent, commonly used hand signal and make the left treat it as a white supremacist dogwhistle. So it can mean anything ranging from "ok" to "this will make the libs angry" to "I am an actual nazi among like minded friends". Which one it is must be discerned from context, meaning that the symbol itself is largely meaningless.

So pardons are for sale to the wealthy or well-connected. Maybe this has always been the case, but to see it so blatant...

The power of pardon simply further reduces the trust and legitimacy of the executive branch. At least for humans it should be revoked, I think we can still trust the presidency with the power to pardon turkeys.

Heinlein is always great.

Check out B. V. Larson's Swarm and Undying Mercenaries series, Dennis E. Taylor Bobiverse series, and Craig Alanson's Expeditionary Force.

Also what I mentioned to OP, what I'm doing my annual re-listen of https://www.goodreads.com/series/51166-troy-rising

They're not Heinlein by any means but they're fairly good hard science fiction. The audiobook versions all have fantastic narrators too if one has a commute.
The shorts are the bag holders. Longs sell their shares to shorts at peak prices, who then return those shares to the lenders. The lenders could sell, but they probably won't since they are in this for the long-term and that's why they lent the shares in the first place.

Short squeezes act like a much needed flush.
> when it was first used it had a broad scope for more or less anything where source was made available to users

I'm not sure the early history of the term really matters. Presumably early aeronautical engineers and early physicists had to all agree on the terms of their field. It's fortunate that they did so, and now that their field is mature, their terms are clear and unambiguous.

Someone without an education in physics might not be able to intuit that physicists use the terms strength, hardness, and toughness in distinct and precise ways.

> The OSI definition is a newer more narrow definition adopted long after the term was in broad use.

I'd say it's a more considered, more precise, more meaningful definition.

> the literal meaning of the words open and source do not have connotations beyond the source being available for viewing

I already gave the example of flap, a precise term-of-art in aviation that reuses a non-technical English word in a way that cannot simply be intuited.

I also don't see that open needs to be a synonym of viewable. I think it's fine that open be used to refer to something broader, as in the Open University for instance. [0]

Exactly and vice-versa. Nothing has changed since the last 4 years with Antifa, BLM, The Proud Boys and Patriot Prayer. The same old riots with both of them with whoever wins / loses the presidency.

It's the result of extremists yelling at each other and not listening / agreeing to disagree as found in the video.

US president Biden begins his rule by issuing 15 orders to undo Trump's policies
We can keep arguing past each other or you can listen to his own speech delivered personally by him to know where his alignment truly lies:

"We fought against white militia. [expletive]. We are going to rip Trump out of office. We are going to rip that [expletive]. "

The left may have abandoned this guy now after his arrest and are busy deflecting all association, but he was most definitely an "anti-trump" activist.

It takes just a couple of people to incite a riot honestly and this guy is an expert who was egging people on while standing safe.

>It's designed to force people to handle the damn error as near to the call as possible.

But that is sometimes the wrong design.

If you have functions A() --> call B() --> call C() ... and C() has an error because of a memory allocation failure or a network connection being down, sometimes the best context to handle that error is the outermost function A() and not C().

That's why some programmers don't like copypasting a bunch of "if err != nil {return err}" boilerplate across layers when the intentional semantic design is to deliberately autopropagate errors up the stack. E.g. function A() might have more knowledge of the state of the world via code logic to decide whether to retry a broken network connection or simply log the error and exit.

Sometimes handling the error is orthogonal to how a nested call tree is structured. It depends.
Yep, also happens to me on my macOS 10.15 iMac..

Too fast to write anything down by hand, but you could certainly point a 60fps camera at it and get something I'm sure.
VC is basically selling their rolodex. And to be honest that’s why most c-suite gets paid into the millions. In other words, it’s gatekeeping.
Also interested in this question.
I was using TypeScript all through 2019. Went back to plain old JavaScript at the beginning of 2020. Still using plain old JavaScript by default, and break out React when I _really_ have to. No regrets, many benefits.

Seriously?

- "So how many is that?"

- "Well since I ended my counting sequence with 'two', it totally makes sense to announce that I have three pens."
I always appreciate comments that so perfectly capture the spirit of my yet un-articulated thoughts!
You reap what you sow.

When you employ propaganda on a massive scale nobody who knows about it is ever going to take your words seriously again, even if you are actually speaking the truth in that instance. The existance of the 50 Cent Army makes every positive comment about China dubiuos.
But it's still small when you look at the population of China, or the size of Chinas tech industry.

While 1-based index is probably easier to learn and understand for a beginner, even as a beginner there is quickly an overhead where you have to adjust indices by 1 all the time as soon as you do any math on indices. Going from Basic to C was hard for me for many reasons, but a lot of complexity in my code that I took for granted just vanished. This truly showed me the power in getting such fundamental choices right.
One imagines a scratchy, barely-in-color, distorted-audio film strip from the late 1960s extolling the virtues of "The Omni Group" and its super-villainous schemes to "improve" humanity's e.g. mastication habits.
I don't think it's easy for most people to make device behind their IPv4 nat available.

Also the firewall won't provide the same security, here afaik it also handle auth for you (only approved clients can connect), so you don't have to worry about how secure the auth is on the server you're exposing.

(for most people doing all those things securily would likely take much longer than 10min, and unless they're very technically savy I'm not sure how much secure it would be)
At least it's not the Sea Dragon rocket.
NAT punching. Probably. Especially now that CGNAT is becoming endemic.

God I wish ipv6 had taken off. P2P has taken a huge hit because of NAT.

Which gives me a bit of whiplash when I see many of those people outraged that the Capitol Police didn’t just start shooting indiscriminately into the crowd on 1/6.
Panic works fine; they are basically just exceptions you can catch at a higher level. I almost exclusively use panic for my exceptions in go.
Go's thing is more "encourage" to handle errors than "force", given that the compiler has nothing to say about unhandled errors in the presence of certain variable reuse patterns, or completely unassigned returns.

It's all about what you define as a success.

Personally, I think that owner of a bakery on a corner of my street that is visited by all the locals is successful. Is that a success as measured by the VCs? Probably not. Pinboard is an example of that in tech.

Also, yeah raising capital is helpful if you can do it in a smart way, and use that as a leverage to continue what you are doing. That usually means not listening to the VCs, as their goal is for you to grow as fast as you can and keep raising bigger rounds, so they can report how great of investors they are, not for you to build a sustainable (successful) business. You can see that replayed over and over.

Is Whatsapp successful? It was definitely raising quite a bit of capital, but still ended up being eaten by a well-funded competitor. I'd say that when you have VCs on your board who will actively push you to sell, so they can register profit, it increases chances of you being swallowed, by someone bigger. Unless you're saying that being eaten up, means outcompeted and pushed towards bankruptcy.
Those that care enough about privacy to use TOR and IPFS likely care very much about using a browser made by Google. De-googling Chrome is like removing telemetry from Windows 10 over installing and running Linux: For some it's great while others wont touch it no matter how much work is put into making it "safe" (and IMHO Chrome variants are at most "safe").
As soon as it gains traction google will remove brave from it’s play store and will pressure apple to do the same

Both are trivial and take only minutes if you're already familiar with them, but Lambda doesn't involve managing instances, their OSes, or making sure they scale up / down (at the instance level) the way you want.

Yeah I agree. Comparing Julia to the mess that is eg python environments, this seems loads better. And I think it’s a reasonable state for something where your deps might not be in the language. Maybe specifying things in a more nix-like way would be better but I think it’s pretty good as is and doesn’t pollute your system with random installations
My guess would be this is just a test to start ramping up on the high end... My guess is takes a lot of work to move manufacturing processes and get good yields.

There is zero point in moving a midrange part like the Core i3 to 5nm when you want the performance improvements at the highest end.
Sorry to go on a tangent, but gotta say, I'm impressed by the level of civility in the thread, and on this topic in particular. It's a rare sight in these troubled times.

The specific word or implementation isn't important.

In Mathematica's case (and most other languages, sadly), presumably the concept of 'variable' is overloaded with the semantics of a pointer/reference. Meaning, you cause and observe changes to locations via a variable.

Love to see the competition between the projects trying to get linux running on the m1. Though I think they will hit a wall trying to enable GPU support.

I think opening up just enough to enable this effort also serves as some good nerd marketing for Apple. This race keeps the m1 in the news regularly, giving hope to those who want a low-power and performant ARM machine that wouldn't otherwise consider an apple machine.

The US doesn't fly rockets over land due to population - I'm sure this is probably law, but I don't know specifically. It's also easier to clear launch zones in water vs land, as vessels have maritime transponders (not sure of law or terminology here). Your last point is probably the most important - being close to cities but far enough away to not bother folks is the dance.
Yes, that's why its hard to explain to kids that a two-year-old is in their third year of life. By the time of their third year of school (second grade) they usually get it, though.

We should be careful not let such easily observed facts inhibit our efforts to dumb down curriculum.
Based on such arguments, I got an impression that screen saver and locking functionality is handled in wayland protocol, but when I tried to look it up, I haven't found it.

It seems that wayland architecture can solve this only when a compositor directly contains screen locking code. And it also means that every wayland compositor have to do this separately (btw is there any reusable library covering this functionality?) and that independent wayland screen lockers (such as swaylocker) have the same problem as X server implementations.
