It's my role, I'm part of the "front door" for the data and AI practice at a large tech consultancy, so supporting lots of conversations for both sales and delivery - like a hotel concierge of sorts, if he were a principal architect :)

If you're like me and are the classic gifted child (brilliant but lazy) it is the ideal role, just know your stuff, show up, win the work, and let everyone else handle the day to day particulars.
Nations have spent thousands of dollars per person on just mitigation efforts and economic stimulus. Meanwhile we have had the ability for months to vaccinate an entire household for a measly $1k?

What's the catch? Is it significantly riskier than the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines? Is it easy to make a mistake while producing this and end up with something ineffective or harmful? Is it just not particularly effective?

If they choose not to do business will that fix the problem? Will that make these oppressive regimes go away?

Monetary greed might be good or bad, they might or might not be doing business there for greed, but it's not the question.

The question is how does oppression algebra works. An oppressive regime is oppressive, by definition, nomen es omen. In this instance we likely agree that forcing private companies to selectively deny service to a minority/vulnerable group of the population is textbook oppression.

How withdrawing from that country/jurisdiction decreases sum-total-oppression?

(I mean the usual argument is that a trade embargo helps people realize that things are bad! Plus it prepares the economy for war, so no one will be surprised when their supplier/distributor/buyers become unavailable due to blockade/bombardment/etc.

In case of selling weapons and surveillance systems the math seems to be simple. But it seems in that case the oppression is again in the name of the game. Rarely oppressed people buy tanks to stand up to that same oppression.

So if a service provider is coerced to provide data about vulnerable/minority groups, that again seems a very textbook case.

In this case maybe the analogy is that Apple/Google is supplying water - for money - but this oppressive regime uses it to waterboard people. Does shutting down the service helps?)

Indeed; I misread that sentence the first time through and was briefly puzzled.
LLVM/Clang are generally well-documented but there are places that don’t have great coverage.

Unfortunately tools are only part of the solution. Our goal with hdoc is to make writing documentation easier and to make it easier to create great/cohesive output. If engineers perceive writing documentation as too laborious they’ll be unlikely to do it, so we hope that hdoc’s workflow and results help.
It literally blocks "Asian restaurants near me." The fact that someone at Apple made a simple word based filter and didn't think of the possibility that words have different meanings in different contexts is absolutely astounding to me.
Same story for bacteria and stomach ulcers.
It reminds me about this answer from Homebrew's creator, Max Howell, on Quora[1]:

> I wrote a simple package manager. Anyone could write one. And in fact mine is pretty bad. It doesn't do dependency management properly. It doesn’t handle edge case behavior well. It isn’t well tested. It’s shit frankly.
> Is it any surprise I couldn’t answer their heavily computer-science questions well?
> On the other hand, my software was insanely successful. Why is that? Well the answer is not in the realm of computer science. I have always had a user-experience focus to my software. Homebrew cares about the user.

Yes, Homebrew's approach on package management is a bad smell to me. It gets broken by every other major OS update, it messes up your Python PATH for no good reason, it forces a lot of opinionated decisions on users if the maintainers think it benefits the majority(and ignores voice from minority)... But Homwbrew still wins because users really like it. It is that simple. With its popularity and the strong community, it will continue to be the top choice for most of the mac users. Max Howell may not be a rock star programmer in my mind, but I have no doubt that he could've been a very successful product manager.

Personally I don't plan to switch from macports to homebrew any time soon, but I stopped grumbling about how bad it is years ago.

"Last September, the collaboration posted a paper on the preprint server arXiv.org, which hosts scientific articles that have yet to go through peer review, showing that its monitored pulsars all displayed similar blips. (The paper has since been peer-reviewed and published.)"

Yeah. One would thought they would lead with the peer-reviewed publications rather than preprints.

Bank robbery -> Undocumented withdrawal
Oh really? I was going off their own FAQ since the graded items requiring paying, and I didn’t want to do it if I couldn’t use the languages I wanted, namely F# and Racket.

From the FAQ:

> > Which programming language do I have to use in order to complete the assignments in this course?

> We expect learners to submit assignments in any version of Java, or Python. We will assume that you have basic programming ability in these languages, including a basic ability to understand and write simple object-based programs.

So is their FAQ out of date I guess?

tl;dr a partial/localized immune response just in the nose; and to confirm the vaccine worked you want to be sure

It seems "the basic issue is that immunity response in the mucus lining (i.e. nose, lung, airway surfaces) can occur independently of response in the bloodstream".

Which I guess means a false positive for post-vaccination verification. (The sentence you have copied is shortly after this: "The key problem is how to check that the vaccine worked.")

If your question is why it's possible to have a partial immune response, then it's because the immune system was not activated fully. The immune response might only consist of "sIgA antibodies in nasalwash and saliva", sIgA is secreted IgA, and IgA "is an antibody that plays a crucial role in the immune function of mucous membranes".

So if mucous membrane successfully "handles" the vaccine, then -- layman speculation -- it's possible nothing [not enough] gets into the bloodstream/lymph.

Ford Becomes an Unlikely Tech Darling
I have no idea why you're interpreting my post as an adversary. My post seems to support your position. I was giving an example of the situation you stipulated, where having both a mental health record and a criminal record is much worse than merely having a mental health record. It's the combination of the two that gets one locked away for life. If there were a mental health program that could address these problems before they become a criminal justice issue (granted, a huge if), then everyone would be far better off.

Not everything is a debate to win, and I'm not your opponent.

I really really don't think that it's the accusation of workers rights to bother people. People don't give a DAMN about workers rights, even when they know that iphones are build in factories where people do suicides. What people don't see, people don't give a damn about.

What bothers people is fake products, reviews, "ops, I didn't get the package in 1 day, amazon is not anymore the same as in the old times", that have increased of course. That's the nature of things.

> This is classic clickbait, I'm not sure how anyone could possibly disagree.

Perhaps it is because this does not affect you or your family.

I'm Asian American. If I turn on the adult filter on my children's device, they will be unable to search for anything Asian.

Do you realize how much damage that would do if my children cannot even research things related to themselves?

This is not clickbait. Just because you are not affected by it doesn't mean it's "race-baiting garbage".
It's important not to run so fast from 1984 that one runs into Snow Crash.

Since the underlying issue here is clearly with Pakistan's laws, I tried looking up how effective a democracy Pakistan is, so that its people would be able to push for freedom of speech laws (or overturning the blasphemy laws) if they so wanted.

Hard to find unbiased sources on this, but it seems like while Pakistan has technically had democratic elections for a while, they have been mired with issues until fairly recently. From wikipedia: "The democratic elections held in 2008 were the first to conclude a complete 5-year term in the nations' political history."
I generally find it really hard to use full on IDEs like PyCharm for doing more investigative/research kinda work in Python, which is where Jupyter/Colab/Spyder are great at. It's just a very different flow, creating a large application versus doing analysis/research.

Show HN: Telnet lunatic.chat – A chat server for the terminal
Hi HN,

I'm working on an Erlang inspired WebAssembly runtime for the backend[0]. Recently I added TCP support and was looking for apps I could build with it. I ended up building a telnet line chat app. It was a great dogfooding experience and has a nice retro feel to it.

You can access the US server with

> telnet lunatic.chat

or the EU one with:

> telnet eu.lunatic.chat

You should pick the one closer to you as all the rendering is done on the backend and lower latency will mean better UX.

The server is open source[1] and written in Rust. The Rust code is then compiled to WebAssembly and runs on top of Lunatic. Each connection runs in a separate (lightweight) process, has it's own state and sends just a diff of esc-sequences back to the terminal to bring it up to date with the current render buffer. Everything is deployed to an ARM Linux box.

Its called the Scunthorpe problem. The name comes from an early incident where AOL filters prevented users from Scunthorpe, England from creating accounts. (because of "cunt" in "Scunthorpe" if that wasn't obvious)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scunthorpe_problem

Few years before the AOL incident I recall watching a news story about internet filters (in schools... I believe) blocking information on Superbowl 30, which is stylized with roman numerals, as Superbowl XXX. I remember this 25 years later because it was so amusing to me. Still is.

(XXX is sometimes used to denote sexual content.)

Oh, hey! Wikipedia actually provides a citation for the Superbowl XXX incident!!
> Fallback plan is open sourcing the codebase.

I think the main concern for would-be user websites is not the code, but what happens to all of the comments if you shut down.

Worst-case one might not notice you plan to shut down before you turn off the servers and all comments are lost.

Do you offer downloads of comment archives for user websites so that they can download the comments in a convenient format for backup?

That would be a relief for some people to have mayhaps.

Edit: I see that this has been addressed already and indeed you do offer that. Excellent!
Counter-argument:

It's important, of note, news, that the word 'Asian' is blocked (why else are you bothering to comment here?). Whether or not it's blocked for a semi-automated reason, this is indeed what discrimination looks like. It's the sexual fetishisation of a whole race of people bleeding into every-day life.

Since the useful information is in the headline, I don't need to click - that's the opposite of click-bait. So I disagree.

> what problem would open platforms solve?

If it was easier for people to sideload apps, or there were many competing app stores, then people could get around theses bans more easily.

For example, if I could go to any website, on an iphone, and install an app very easily (Assume I choose to do so, via some setting), then it wouldn't matter as much if Apple banned the app from the app store.

> whats stopping a country from simply blocking their hosting servers?

They could do that, but if it was easy to install apps on a phone, then it would be very difficult for a country to block every website that hosts the app.

> . Okay, so then you move to a P2P system, so then the get their ISPs to block that

Governments are not infinitely powerful. An efforts to get around government internet censorship, sometimes work.

And the more methods there are of circumventing government censorship, the easier it is to do so.

Censorship has an effect. But it is not perfect. There is a spectrum of behavior, where it can be easier or harder to get around censorship.

This post touches on the 'other' issue with Firefox - the various user unfriendly features that cause friction when using it. I want to love Firefox, but my time is valuable and using Brave instead saves time and frustrations, vs Firefox.

I'm pretty sure these subtle but numerous usability issues are on purpose from up high, because the usability could be fixed so easily. Still Google isn't paying 95% of Mozilla's and Moz's executives bills for them to beat Chrome, but rather to provide a lightning rod for monopoly concerns. From Google's point of view it's a bonus that it wastes the time of the market segment that cares about open systems!

Just because you don't mean to be racist doesn't mean the outcome of your behavior cannot bear a pungent racial smell. When people train models for facial recognition, we don't assume researchers hate black people.

However, when you're making decisions for a lot of people, it would be deeply incompetent to not understand how you damaged an experience for the majority of customers. In other words, if the majority of your customers were black, then you'd notice that "black" was a banned keyword.

When you can't have everything you want, then how you prioritize says something about you.
You’re assuming a lot about the implementation. In fact I strongly doubt that somebody at Apple literally put “asian” as a blanket filter. It’s more likely an opaque machine learning feature gone awry.
And the article for John Wilkes Booth describes him as an "American stage actor" even though that's not what he's known for. If you keep reading the article, however, it's almost completely about what he is known for (a statement true for both cases). That's just standard wikipedia formatting.
> Surely there is a point where exiting the market is the only moral thing to do?

Agreed.

But I don't think this case is it. Mainly because exiting does pretty much nothing to prevent Pakistani persecution of Ahmadiyya Muslims. It's like you see a bully picking on a kid every day at the park and you just decide to go to a different park. Maybe you feel a little better about it yourself, but it doesn't help the kid.

This can be done on a larger scale, which will have a strong impact. I'm talking about economic sanctions via the UN or at least the US, where certain kinds of business are not allowed or restricted. In theory these kinds of sanctions could force countries to liberalize. But the reality isn't always that great. The general population ends up bearing the economic misery while the people in power, who make the decisions, do not. The general population tends to get resentful of the west, not adopt its values, and the people in power keep enjoying their power anyway. It seems these sanctions can turn countries inward, not outward, becoming more extreme and less liberal. North Korea, Iran, Russia.

I've found that comments submitted in less than 7 seconds from page load are spam. On a few low traffic sites I just discard anything faster than that.

A few bots seem to load a page, wait a while, then come back to it. But by and large they seem to try to submit the comment immediately after page load.

Mind you, this was on low-traffic sites. High traffic sites I'm sure see more varied techniques.
