No, of course you can, and that is what Amazon is doing.
I'm sure the access is there, but who would dare dispute Putin's tastes?
Standard electric fences are also not enough to keep horses in if they see a reason to get out. They often jump or demolish fences.

In addition to these, I've found (my personal experience, ymmv):

1) f/F to jump to next/previous occurrence of character to help navigating within a line very effectively, in conjunction with ; and , to jump around within these occurences.
2) use relative line numbers in conjunction with your hjkl.

E.g. jump up 5 lines and go to the start of a bracket is '5kf('. If it's a nested bracket you want, then '5kf(;'.

You are going to get downvoted to hell for "gatekeeping" but you're right.

Instead of just graduating 50 people who "get the trade", we're now diluting them with another 350 that "made the grade". Then tech firms need wild, crazy interview processes to sort them back out. Everybody suffers, including the 350 who may have been productive and happy in another, more suitable profession.
The goal is not to compete, but rather complement HotSpot/GraalVM with:

- (Polyglot) scripting with Java

- Augmenting native images e.g. native javac with instant
startup + annotation processors (very dynamic) running on Espresso

- A simple non-invasive JVM for constrained environments

- DCEVM-like features for developers

- Approachable academic playground

- Fast prototyping of JVM features e.g. it took our intern just two weeks to implement invokedynamic/MethodHandles
I don't know, maybe there is a similar log with details on the whitehouse website. If you can find it a simply CTRL+F can help.
I was very clear elsewhere what it would take to convince me that there is something to this nonsense. One guy using it in a courtroom ain't it. Did anyone interview him about it? Ask what it was, where he heard about it, what our who he was trying to signal, if he was? Or, did the journalist make up the association on their own?
> Mr. Levandowski has paid a significant price for his actions and plans to devote his talents to advance the public good.

What a laugh. Significant price? How so?
What the typical programmer doesn't even realize is that this is an artifact of Von-Neumann architectures (and their assembler language) and optimization of early compilers, not a essential property of computation.

Spreadsheets, expression-rewriting languages or any other functional programming language don't necessarily have this limitation, and declarations can be made in any order if the compiler supports it.
In AWS Lambda you can run arbitrary processes in their serverless service e.g. my company runs ffmpeg in Lambda. Why does this have to be WASM in javascript engine? Why can't they just run sqlite by javascript forking to a C++ process (or using sqlite binding of javascript)? Is this a POC for wasm?
How would you propose to make that happen? Most enterprises require more capital than workers can supply.
I'm not too deep in Taiwan as a subject, but I think the Taiwanese government (or rather the government of the Republic of China) isn't too happy with that qualification and wants to stand in their own right, not as a mere province.

In many cases this can be circumvented in an even simpler way: Don't ask, if you don't have to. If you have to ask and can use a free text field do that. If you can't use free text due to dependency on a different provider kick the can down to them and give them responsibility ... and in some cases be flexible (Google Maps shows different borders depending on where a user comes from ... lots of effort of course)
Rat's bite. There was nothing lion about it.
> the fairly bold move to have a single all-purpose hybrid container data structure was not a success and is not something that other languages should try to replicate

I agree with this. It created more complication than it reduced. But the length operator is still additionally terrible and does something other than what most people want.

Maybe not legally, but if their (partial) intention is to retard AMD's design success, it's at least what is considered "a dick move".

Intel is strong-arming AMD on many fronts AFAIK, I sincerely hope they vanish into insignificance for their dick-locomotion nature. And I also hope the EU succeeds at spinning up their own fabs. And that ancaps one day see the light of regulation.

Sleeping Tabs is a feature on MS Edge.

Software quality assurance, features and support are important and viable avenues to monetize even the most openly-licensed project.

All of those require motivated contributors, either from the community or from the developer's in-house team.

What we might see play out here is competition over the market's perception of different distributions of the software, and attempts to build contributor communities that are able to back up each side's claims by supplying genuine value and improvements.

Marketing and perception management have in recent history often been correlated somewhat with the size of each competitor's budget.
"Grift" is one of those words that you rarely hear but then all of the sudden it became very popular. Oddly enough my spellchecker doesn't recognize "Grift", and I have no idea why.

Thanks for commenting.

We have an API for developers to use and integrate while ordering which is free with extremely fast response.

Adoption is the key factor, if we have lot of users, it would be only a few days work for Amazon and others to integrate.

True, but not relevant to the point, which is that both Apple and Google built their browsers on top of someone else’s work just as Brave is doing.

It took years of shipping Chrome before Google actually forked
Blink.
No, that's the lower bound of the first array element.
Even though, admit it... If the course is really good, the extra $10 are nothing compared to the several hours of frustration that you could save.
Yeah, at the moment you need to build it. Our ambition is to eventually offer that as a service via soul.dev so you can just download a binary.
Yeah, other than an experimental exercises I don't get why anyone would ever want to do this. You will spend WAY more money for the Apple hardware, you will struggle to get things to stay consistent. If your goal is to run linux then don't buy a Mac.
The reclocking never really worked well on chips that were older than this signing requirement either.

But that's a bit besides the point :)
The main problem is not Amazon using the Elasticsearch product, but using the Elasticsearch trademark without permission, even creating a fork with that trademark in it. That is not OK.

And then doing stuff like this:

> When Amazon announced their Open Distro for Elasticsearch fork, they used code that we believe was copied by a third party from our commercial code and provided it as part of the Open Distro project.

That makes it all the more dodgy. The fact that AWS is also the only cloud provider they complain about, and explicitly name others where they don't have these issues with, paints a pretty clear picture imho...
and they're planning to return with a new generics proposal...

It means that Brave is implementing protocols that help circumvent censorship, while the CEO of Mozilla is saying that current censorship doesn't go far enough.
I disagree.

People with authority have an enormous influence over people.

Instead of giving them/him the possibility to act abnormally, he should have been banned like every other person would have been ( if they weren't the president).

Ads income should also be lowered for fake news platforms where the creation of content is much cheaper ( no research). Eg. Probably all qAnon platforms would fall under this category. Making it less profitable and harder to create and spread "bullshit".

Edit: if downvote, at least say why ;)

Is there a reason this extension still exists, given that tabs get heavily deprioritized when not in focus, and have been for many, many versions now?
a lot of edoro’s members (putin’s) party would start leaving the party if there is a danger that they can’t go to their Miami’s houses anymore.
I think for the larger companies it's on the low side. (since I didn't personally actually want the job.)

Take Amazon for example, for a low level position, you have to make an account (with verification), submit your personal information, then do a personality test, and a weird stacking assessment.

I tried to replicate the process authentically, but at the end of the day, I didn't want the job, so I would think and if I didn't know the best answer, pick one.

If I really wanted the job, I would have spent more time finding the "right" answer.
There is another problem by sideloading the extension: you don't have cloud sync anymore, thus forcing you to sideload on every computer you have.
It's more the chance of an unexpected breaking change. When you use a package manager, you're expecting stuff to change (and get to review what's changing).

Upgrading manually regularly: Good idea.

Having a cronjob to do it automatically without user intervention: Bad idea.
Considering the doubts already at the top of this thread and that I have a distinct memory, though I'll be damned if I can remember where I read it, that TSMC would generally not work with Intel because they prefer long term partners not ones who are using them strategically in the short term and since they have their pick of partners they didn't feel any pressure to work with Intel either. I'm not sure I trust this report yet.
I didn't know the demo will join you into a room with random people :D
It's not about "ranking events" or some nonsense, it's about making sure everything that should be prosecuted gets prosecuted. The right desperately wants to focus on

, which BLM and the Capitol Riots had in common, to distract from the attempt to overturn the election of the President of the United States of America, which they did not have in common.

All of it should be prosecuted. Both the parts they had in common and the parts they did not.
No one should be purchasing a brand new M1 Mac with the expectation of perfect Linux support any time soon.

However, I’m optimistic that these will be mostly usable on Linux before they’re too obsolete or outdated. The platform is so popular and iconic that it’s drawing a lot of attention from Linux devs and reverse engineering crowds.

Updated the post, thanks!
I am absolutely not calling you dumb! Emacs doesn't work for my brain at all, but Vim does. There are lots of tools that are made for different kinds of people and they all help us towards getting to a certain result.

I don't think it's fair to say that the user interfaces are bad, though. The defaults may be bare bones, but the point is that they are programmable environments that allow you to tailor them to your needs if you want to.

That's it.
Re-read his comment. Boat to rig personnel xfer is usually done by a crane/basket lift.

In this case, the helipad is just where they drop the basket, since it's already a designated clear zone.
I think you're conflating "natural" with "familiar".

Here are two processes Timmy could use to count the pens on his desk. (I have numbered them starting with 1, because I considerately adapt to the needs of my audience :-).)

1. Say "0". Then increment for each object. So he goes: zero, (points to pen) one, (points to pen) two, (points to pen) three.

The advantage of this is that you don't need a special case when the number of pens turns out to be zero. Hey, Timmy, how many unicorns on your desk? Timmy starts by saying "zero", looks around, no unicorns, finished: it's the same process as for pens, it just stopped earlier.

2. Number the objects from 0, and then the count is the next number after the ones you listed. So he goes: (points to pen) zero, (points to pen) one, (points to pen) two, so the number is three.

This corresponds more closely to how indexing works in computers, and matches up nicely with the so-called von Neumann construction in mathematics, but in other ways I find it less natural than #1. But I am confident that you could teach it to children, and they would find it natural, and think it weird to mix up "the number of objects" with "the number of the last object". In this case, the only thing that changes from your dialogue is that Timmy says "Well, since the next number is three, it totally makes sense to announce that I have three pens." You count the pens, then you say how many there are. Zero, one, two, three. Not zero, one, two, two as you would prefer. What are you, some kind of weirdo or something? :-)
I’m not so sure about that. With his crazy following if he creates his own online presence, à la infowars, he can make a lot of money.

Not dissimilar to the Lebanese situation in practice, then?
I worked with a CEO who shared this sentiment about history. After two months with no paychecks, half truths about our funding, and the dev team quitting, he wanted me to start building up a crew of contractors.

After asking what he would change, he told me he had no time to look at the past and could only look ahead.

I learned if you have enough money and lawyers, the past doesn't matter because you can enforce trust through litigation. But if you have to take people on their word, then their history becomes important. I didn't rebuild the team.

I'm sure there is some deeper lesson here between "smarmy business folks" and more principle driven individuals.
Everyone can submit, doesn't mean it'll be included.

The enemy of Assange's enemy was never his friend. Nothing about Trump's conduct has ever suggested he wants more whistleblowers walking free, especially ones who may not feel a "professional courtesy" to refrain from leaking some things.

The next thing Wikileaks reports on could have been shady back-dealing on Trump real estate projects, for all we know. Trump never saw pardoning Assange as a gain for himself.
Maybe they can use these for transfer? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4FUBfp9kS0
This is just magical thinking.

You can’t have high paying jobs unless firms have high productivity from their employees. No one knows how to create highly productive employees from thin air. If they did... they would be doing it! Does anyone really believe that capital is scarce?

And there is a natural experiment demonstrating what happens in a low productivity, high wage industry: healthcare. Do we really want to turn all on industry into the tapeworm that is healthcare in the IS healthcare industry?

> Almost every single thing on a computer is meant to be scrolled, so 9:16 is natural for desktop UI, web pages, documents, code editing, the works.

I tried that once [1], but it didn't work very well for me. The monitor was 1080p, and I had trouble with desktop UIs that assumed a minimum width of 1280 (so I'd occasionally get things like the OK button truncated). Also a lot of websites (including HN) kick into mobile mode when they notice a tall aspect ratio, which was also annoying.

[1] I got a 16:9 monitor at work (I'd ordered a 16:10, but IT did a substitution in their rube-goldberg purchasing process.

Couldn't agree more.
Interesting idea. In this mental model, are the kids being coerced into joining one of these houses by the parents who want to ensure this?

Because from where I was sitting, the kids were plenty self-motivated by the parties, and the parents had basically no say.
When I go to a country to get a result, I don't say "hey wait a minute, you're quite a bit more extreme than prior leaders and a lot of your citizens don't want to associate with you at all!" I just go to the mixers and try to get as much influence as possible and I'm glad to hang out in those circles.

Like I said, EFF and ACLU are a waste of our energy because they failed to do that. The White House has published a list of the kinds of people and organizations that get results. Its an instruction manual.
presidential pardons shouldn't be a thing after the november vote ...
The problem with 'pokemon' exception handling (you have a 'gotta catchem all' exception handler) is that when someone inadvertantly puts a exception handler somewhere in the middle of the call stack it creates hard to find bugs. I've actually seen this in practice and it's a pain to debug.
That kind of remains to be seen there's a lot of people out there that are still very on board with Trump, it may not be a luxury lifestyle brand much going forward but it'll almost definitely still be a brand.
Installing Debian Linux 2.1 from 1999 Was a Painful Experience
The fact that you have to manually type in `apt-get update` (or similar) means it's not automatic. You have full control over when the update takes place, and which packages get updated.
>But it isn't, and that's because of the setup of the US government.

It has though. For the majority of its existence America had continuously screwed over the Native Americans. In fact, one of the primary reasons for the American revolution was to allow colonists to settle on Native American land. It's only after the natives lost their will to fight when America decided to play nice with them. This is pretty much what happened to Tibet and no doubt is going to happen to Xinjiang.
There are a lot of comments and replies to my statement but you are the only one I've seen that has understood exactly what I was thinking about when I made the comment.

Don't record yourself breaking the law.

It doesn't matter which side of history you end-up on. It doesn't matter if in 10, 50, or 400 years, history decides that you were right. Right now, the authorities will find you guilty.
I thought your point was that the EFF and other great institutions would normally and successfully sponsor people to be pardoned and so this year was a notable exception?

I'd be curious if there was a list of all unsuccessful applicants too. I think that would be very interesting to see and bring some transparency. We'd be able to see just how many businesses, shady and legit, how many political orgs and cultural institutions, millionaires lobby and for whom.
>How they didn’t see parallels to the stasi I don’t know.

Probably some mental gymnastics along the lines of "it's different because we're using it for good."

What I don't get is why these boondoggles keep popping up despite them failing to actually improve the crime stats that the people at the top who approve these things tie their careers to.
“are the similarly priced headphones missing noise cancellation”

Yes.

Here in Germany every internet capable device is considered for the license, so your system would fail there as well (being unfairer).

I tried plasma-wayland on Arch a couple days ago.

Log in, open firefox. Minimize the window, and the entire machine freezes. This is on an AMD GPU as well.

Every time I try Wayland, whether it be sway on my laptop or plasma on my desktop, I run into snags that did not exist in X. So back to X I go.

I'll switch to Wayland when it's ready "for real, actually, promise", and not a moment before. Maybe when Debian Stable switches to it by default.

2 cents from someone living in a post-soviet neighboring-to-Russia country.

What I hear very frequently (mostly) from Russian people is stuff like "not sure Navalny is clear himself" or "how come a random blogger know about / be involved in so much?" etc. Which then somehow invalidates all the vast amounts of proof of corruption, injustice, and plain incompetency going on.

Muddying the waters appears to be Russia's/Putin's weapon of choice. Russian information-bubble is strong.

Doesn't only apply to Navalny situation, of course. Same goes for the occupation of Crimea, striking of MH17, as well as lots of past crimes that the elite wants to sugar-coat for political reasons.

I guess the moral here is to take this into account when someone tells you how the situation in/with Russia is "actually not like the media portrays". (spoiler: it's likely even worse)
it should hardly be a thing at all
