I like the fact that I can switch to/from different computers quickly. I have a desktop and a laptop that I routinely use. If I change something in a devcontainer[1], then I can move between the two easily. This actually happened to me earlier in the week.

[1] syncing the changes is left as an exercise to the reader, but I use a common git repository.
My opinion is that you just described Twitter way more than you described Parler, but the narrative is dead set on convincing you otherwise.
Running Desktop Applications in Docker
Where's that quote from? The article points out they make no mention of any Belize presence, and LACNIC spent several months investigating the tip, which happened in November. That hardly seems reactionary.
Sorry, I should have been more clear. In 2000 there was a big debate over whether that was the first year of the new century. I sincerely thought that it had been settled long ago. Year 0 never existed (Christ is conventionally born on year 1 [1]), and the first hundred years (first century) go from 1 to 100. The second hundred years (second century) begin in 101, and so on.

Except he didn't re-hire him. As noted in the article itself, the architect was already in negotiations since November. Also, new CEO doesn't step in until next month. Clickbait title.
Or fear of the mob. We will be using DDoS-Guard going forward to show support for those with a spine.
We also use remote dev boxes, but can VSCode connect to a remote server and connect to remote docker containers?

For example, I don't have ruby installed on the remote dev box, but it is installed inside docker on the remote host. I also don't have ruby or docker running locally.

I think all the linting plugins either expect ruby to be available on the remote host, or inside docker, but not this combo... Is there something I'm missing? (disclaimer: only played a bit with VScode, I use vim on the remote box usually).

Wondering if this will really create meaningful change. It would be nice to see a refocus on simplification and speed while eliminating things that involve taking shortcuts or adding backdoors for NSA.

Also, it would be interesting to see significant changes with the instruction set.

But I personally doubt Intel will get back on the path to greatness any time soon. However, any steps in the right direction will bring more competition in the market, which will ultimately benefit consumers. So this has to be a win, even if it only shows us that Intel is going to keep fighting.
Have you considered moving the whole thing to Cloudflare Workers? It would make it hug-of-death proof.

Edit: Your site is awesome, I'm going to start using it.
Parler isn't a bastion of free speech. They make the same "we don't want to be associated with certain users" decision that FB and Twitter do, often in the exact same ways. They just don't ban or limit far-right conspiracy.
"support" and "default" are very different things. Especially with package managers like homebrew, which comes with a loud warning that non-default (root) paths may not be supported by dependencies.

It also doesn't really, since this is a system level issue. Applications need to package their dependencies, not the other way around. Dependencies form graphs, not flat lists. The existence of a global cache of libraries shared by all programs is a total inversion of requirements.
On the other hand, I spent a year ramping up my bicycling, and then went on a 7-day trip spanning 535 miles. I did some serious damage to my knees because while my main cycling muscles had the strength for the trip, some of my stabilizing muscles did not.

I couldn't get back on the bike without knee pain for months. Now I am totally out of shape. I could go to PT, as I was given a referral, but it's expensive, and I prefer self-help resources.
The rest of the sentence that you improperly quoted:

> DDoS-Guard CEO Evgeniy Marchenko maintains the company has done nothing wrong, and that DDoS-Guard does indeed have a presence in Belize.

Which clearly does not support anything else in your comment, or rebut anything in the comment you're replying to.

Define accountability. Now you have a cost benefit ratio. If there is personal liability who can be blamed so you get the benefit and they get the detriment.
This is an encouraging move.

My secondhand understanding was that Intel was losing top talent due to pressure to pay closer to median industry compensation. Top engineers recognized they were underpaid and left the company.

I've been part of a similar downhill slide at a smaller company in the billion dollar revenue range. To be blunt, once the [mediocre] MBAs start realizing that the engineers are getting paid more than they are, the pressure to reduce engineering compensation is strong. Frankly, there are plenty of engineering candidates on the market who are happy with median compensation. Many of them are even great engineers and great employees.

However, being a top company in a winner-take-all market requires the top engineers. The only way to attract and retain them at scale is to offer high compensation. I'm hoping that's part of what's happening here.
Err. shouldn't the real competitors be viewed as ARM and M1?
It's for two (well, at least two) reasons: one is to prevent things like this. The other is that in generally doing case-insensitive stuff for non-ASCII is language-dependent.

For example, in English "i" and "I" are case-insensitively equal but in Turkish they are not: "i" is case-insensitively equal to "İ" (U+0130) and "I" is case-insensitively equal to "ı" (U+0131).

So if you wanted to do full-unicode case-insensitive things you would need to decide what happens with <DİV> or <dıv> and whether it depends on the language of the page or what. Doing ASCII-only case-insensitivity sidesteps all that, while admittedly privileging English over other languages.
You didn't shoot yourself. We know this to be true.

This is the key statement. Even in reinforcement learning exploring intelligently is an important problem. There’s no point exploring a new state if your world model is confident about what’s going to happen there: you won’t learn much.
Bear in mind that there was never anything on Parler that wasn't on Twitter or Facebook.

> It's reasonable to say that Parler should use a mix of automated tools and human judgment to block unlawful speech and/or hate speech - but it's NOT the reason that Appl/Goog have removed it. Both companies have made it clear in their public communications that Parler must install an effective hate-speech filter to qualify for inclusion in their stores.

> I hope we can all agree that "effective hate-speech filter" is a nonexistent technology, and that therefore none of the existing services whose apps appear in either app store have such a technology in place.
I agree, they must be punished for their violent extremist seditionist views. They are a threat to our society. It’s called the “paradox of tolerance” the intolerant do not deserve rights because they have labeled themselves as intolerant.

> If you only allowed the speech you didn’t have a problem with, then you wouldn’t need the concept of free speech.

Well that's exactly the question: Is free speech more societally useful than disallowing the kinds of speech I disagree with?
> 3) isolation from your actual OS

For me, this is the major benefit. I don't have to worry about installing new tools or libraries and how they interact with my primary OS. While this isn't a huge issue for many, I don't want to have to worry about how Go, Python, Java, etc... are installed on my Mac. I like being able to pull in a Docker container with everything already setup (or a customized one). Then when I throw away a project, I don't have orphaned installations on my Mac.

> From the perspective of a being inside the universe, the only thing we could observe by such a parameter search on the spaces of possible universe, are being amazed at how some constants of the universe seem to be fine-tuned.

That's a good point, and I've also always wondered how fine-tuned those constants are. One problem though, is that changing the initial parameters would most likely have chaotic effects as the system (the whole universe) seems unstable and fragile. For example, it would be extremely difficult to fine-tune the parameters such that billions of years later at this moment, I don't write this comment.
@judge2020 I'm aware Parler is a subpar platform (compared to Gab for example). But this de-platforming BS needs to stop. It's pathetic.

This is not the correct modeling approach. All hard drives will fail given enough time, so labeling the failed hard drives as the positive class will bias your results.

Stuff like this really should be handled using survival analysis.
I don’t think so.

Without digging into the source - and I intend to do that, if someone more familiar with this doesn’t chime in - it appears that it’s targeted at reducing resource consumption.

UTF-8 can encode emoji fine. Consider (“ grinning face with smiling eyes”), which is `\xF0\x9F\x98\x81` in bytes. That’s four bytes. From the pg-emoji Readme:

> A lookup-table is constructed from the first 1024 emojis from [https://unicode.org/Public/emoji/13.1/emoji-test.txt], where each emoji maps to a unique 10 bit sequence.

> The input data is split into 10 bit fragments, mapped to the corresponding emojis.

If my understanding is correct thus far, then instead of storing four bytes for each emoji, you’d only need 10 bits.

I don’t know where this would be worthwhile.

I’m further confused by the purpose of `to_text()` and `from_text()`. Their example shows a string composed of mostly Latin characters being encoded into a string of emoji and back.
Sure, but, as I like to say, "defaults matter", and having to search long and hard to find the unpalatable content you want is much different than someone serving it to you on a plate.
My partner and I recorded a Christmas album in our basement and put it on Bandcamp for "pay what you want including $0". We made over $400, but as of today, it's only been downloaded/streamed 500 times.

I'm sure if Gary asked around his friends and family what they'd like to hear on his next album, he could probably make more money.
> That makes me wonder. Do "free speech" rights apply when it's not your speech?

The act of choosing to use (or not use) ones resources to relay speech is, yes, an act of free speech (or perhaps more precisely free press, though the two are generally treated as a single right under the name “speech” for most purpose).

> Twitter is not an editor

It is, except for some civil liability purposes because of the specific Section 230 carveout for curated/moderated content which is user generated, a publisher. The choice to publish content, or not, is a speech/press act.

The Apple App Store allows this (you can gift apps), but Google Play has no such mechanism unfortunately.

Threema would need to switch to an in-app purchase model in order to be able to handle "gifted/sponsored apps" manually, but then people would probably be pissed because "the app looks free but then requests a payment".

The Android version can also be obtained (and gifted) through https://shop.threema.ch/, but this requires manually installing an APK. The best way would be for Google to provide a means to gift apps to others in the Play store. I really can't comprehend why they don't do this.

Hydrofoils are sort of seaplanes? They just keep the wing in the water. And so don't have to deal with being not-so-great airplanes, so they can focus on being good boats.

Starship might end up even more robust to weather than airliners. As are boats. But seaplanes combine the vulnerability of planes, with the those of poor boats. Taking off in a swell, is not a happy thing. I suppose SpX could hypothetically do JATO rocket-assisted seaplanes. :P

But consider the number of passengers. And choices of flying formations of existing seaplanes for each launch, or "let's create a brand new large airliner, and make it a seaplane too!" (even without the seaplane bit, those can be 'bet the aerospace company' gambles), or... order some ferries. Maybe even rent them to start.

I think that's a better version/telling.
Computers being "commodities of commodities" is kind of a recent phenomenon. For a while, the norm was to do exactly what Apple is doing. It was much more common to design and market your own custom processor or, at the least, custom chipsets coupled with your own firmware/OS, like most unix workstations, non-IBM-PCs like the Amiga, Atari, Macs...

It'll be interesting to see if any other players try to move back to this style in the desktop/laptop PC space.

Having used an iPad for general web browsing for a while, the worst change they made was allowing web apps write their own fullscreen interfaces. I can't think of any video website where they've done a better job at basic video player controls than what the OS does natively.

That would certainly make more sense than anything I’ve been able to glean from it.

I’ve definitely used Postgres text columns to store user-provided text values that included emoji in the past. They’re part of my standard test case for any user input.
Vagrant could have made it but it didn't. Seems like the cloud providers leaned into docker much more heavily.
Not really. They support dumping the package contents to an arbitrary directory, but you can't actually run the software from there without either the software having been written to support arbitrary paths (almost none is) or using namespacing and chroot to build it a sandbox wherein its baked-in paths actually work.

Contrast that with something like RiscOS AppDirs, classic Mac applications, or Next/Mac Application Bundles.

But that doesn't stop you as a developer from freely writing a 3D game that runs on it.

Same here. Think of it as a device driver. Ideally we'll open-source everything eventually, but anyone who's ever been involved in real-world commercial software development will understand that things aren't always quite that idyllic when you're building a business around it.
> Yeah it’s as if they’re saying that indeed they agree with all the Tweets they don’t moderate

Nope, publishers often (sometimes with explicit notice to avoid doubt) publish things they disagree with because they think there is value in publishing it. They often also exercise their free speech/press rights to not publish other things they disagree with, even if they are submitted to them for publication.

Yes free speech is useful but not for fascists and their allies. Fascist speech is never okay.

The philosophers of the enlightenment didn’t foresee that freedom of speech would be exploited by racists for the purposes of promoting hate in a tolerant society. Freedom of speech is an outdated concept.
When folks want to startup and ask for programmers but only get a bunch of snake oil salesmen who know "AI expertise" or "blockchain" but have a degree and background in marketing. Way too common in Dubai especially. Every time someone asked me, I always referred them to India or Pakistan, since I never knew where the Arab coders are. That is until now.
This problem has been festering for four years: Twitter deliberately carved out exceptions for "world leaders" that, in practice, applied to Trump and Trump alone because they really liked having @realDonaldTrump on their platform, even though he was flagrantly breaking their rules. Trump said things on Twitter that I could not.

The best thing I could see going forward would be a legal requirement for online platforms that broadcast content to others to apply their moderation rules even-handedly. This could be effectuated by either banning ToS terms that allow arbitrary and capricious moderation; or by reducing the scope of CDA 230 immunity to prohibit carve-outs for specific individuals, in the same way that DMCA 512 immunity goes away when you start rejecting legally valid counternotices or ignoring repeat infringers (which, BTW, they also did for Trump).

I have mixed feelings about pricing that scales with revenue. Most pricing ends up working this way, but at least when it's expressed as seats or usage it's a bit easier to justify the price tag. Revenue scaling pricing reads to me as "We'll give you the same thing, but you're making more, so pay us more." I simultaneously understand it, and it feels dirty to me, hence the mixed feelings.
I'd say both sides are true. The theoretical aspects of compilers are quite well-understood, and for pretty much every pass or analysis in the compiler, I could go and rustle up a citation of a paper or a talk or a book or what have you that explains the theory of the algorithm. On the other hand, actual code brings up issues that aren't easily handled in the theoretical framework, and the adjustments necessary to make it work well in practice generally are in the vein of the-code-is-the-documentation.

>While this may solve immediate problems (such as the planning of unlawful or otherwise socially harmful events), we should consider the long-term impacts of de-platforming. Does censorship, even if justified, fuel anger and distrust, potentially increasing social conflict in the long-term?

Political divide in the USA has greatly increased in the last couple months. The blame lay solely at the hands of left leaning entities.

>Is it possible to bring fringe groups back into the fold of peaceful civil discourse, or are we simply throwing up our hands and declaring that some percentage of the population must always have their speech regulated? (I suppose this question applies for both social groups and for individuals.)

That's smoke and mirrors at best. The deplatforming being done in the name of banning 'conspiracy theories' and 'violent speech' is not at all a legitimate assertion.

This has been a coordinated effort to deplatform political opponents. "censorship" or "freespeech" are not considerations or problems. The platforms(twitteR) can decide if they want those people on their platform.

What it does mean is that eventually new platforms will exist that the left cant shutdown. The right-wing will move there and there will be even less political discourse and even more echo chamber issues.

More importantly, this level of deplatforming is orchestrated, it not only confirms the election was stolen, it makes this election the worst election in us history.
