To be clear, you think that going out of your way to go on a self-righteous tirade against a guy because he's proud of his kid graduating college is on par with racism? You're being intentionally obtuse and it's readily apparent by the fact that you have to attack me and "my understanding." Your critiques ignore all of the arguments that I made about the substance of the article in favor of attacks. You complain that we can't have discussions and yet you're the person who makes it so we can't have discussions.

> For them to lie would mean they magically know everything about it and specifically choose not to tell you.

In the case of both of Fauci's lies, he DID know the correct answer, but chose to mislead the public.

His statements about masks were later justified by a claimed need to reserve PPE for medical personnel. And from my explanation in cousin comment[1], knowing the science shows us that he was actually telling the truth initially about herd immunity, and has recently changed his story to something not supported by the science.

Now, there's surely an argument to be made for managing the information to prevent panic, and to guide people into doing the right thing. But I don't think that's valid in a system that's supposed to be founded on democracy, self governance, a government "of the people, by the people". If we're going to let supposed experts run things with no input from the people, then we have some kind of technocratic oligarchy, and not a democracy.

Could you imagine being the CTO of this company, kind of cruising along in the modern integration focused environment? You need an email provider (looks like they used SendGrid) a 2FA provider (Twilio), hosting (AWS), apps (Apple, Google), internal chat (Slack), etc.

Now imagine all of those services say "nah, you're done". All of the sudden you need to roll your own everything. You have millions of users and no access to fractional development of load balancing, crafting emails to avoid spam filter, best practices in 2FA, well organized chat permission systems. It's the true nightmare scenario for a modern company.

If you say "they should have anticipated being de-platformed", well they probably never would have made it as far if they had focused on that.
> You have 20 extensions that were "approved" by mozilla more than a year ago! All the others are banned forever.

This is a ridiculous lie, Mozilla has said repeatedly that more extensions are being enabled as support for more extension APIs are added, and it has been true. Several of my extensions which were previously disabled have come back online after updates.

How much time was devoted to Trump and his "two scoops of ice cream", "dumping seed in the koi fish pond" or any of the hundreds of miniscule things he did - most of which were just mandanities, framed into a false lens and then magnified.

I'm not saying that Trump was good, just that there was so much noise from social media about how absolutely everything he did was not just "bad", but the "worst ever". A lot of left-leaning source went into an absolute frenzy about anything and everything he did to try and spin it as the worst.

> McKinsey’s extensive work with Purdue included advising it to focus on selling lucrative high-dose pills, the documents show, even after the drugmaker pleaded guilty in 2007 to federal criminal charges that it had misled doctors and regulators about OxyContin’s risks. The firm also worked with a number of opioid makers to band together to “defend against strict treatment” by the Food and Drug Administration.

Yeah, sending SIGKILL to pid1 of a container will insta-kill the whole thing. But the network resource stuff does also include removing iptables rules, so it's not something that you really want to be skipping. It feels like the network resources being cleaned up should be a background job rather than blocking the kill (after all, it's not critical to stopping the container and most resources will be freed by the network namespace dying). Also (if you're not already aware of this), you should note that if you use "docker exec" or share pid namespaces between containers, this trick will no longer work because your saved pid is not the pid1 of the namespace (runc has a "kill everything in the container" mode to work around this -- so I'd suggest using "runc kill SIGKILL" rather than doing it manually but it's probably not that important).

Have you opened a bug report in Docker upstream to see if they can improve the situation (perhaps by putting networking cleanup jobs to a background goroutine)?
I’m not American, so please excuse if this is an ignorant question - didn’t Lincoln abolish slavery? What did he do to get his name taken off of schools?

Y up is very common in computer graphic. As for CAD, I know at least Solidworks have the option to use Y up.

I think the choice of 3D up axis is related to the expected look direction. 3D printer control software evolved from CNC control software, which is looked at from top down, so up is on the build plate plane. Video game commonly looked at from the side, so up is up. Up is then often associated with Y.

And then there the argument about right hand vs left hand coord system...
> over the last 30 years the democratic party has mostly remained the same with a slight left trend, while the republicans have become moved much much further right.

On visual comparison between the 97th Congress and the 116 Congress, it's obvious that the Democrats have moved pretty far downwards as well as bit leftwards. That is, they became much more liberal on the "Other Votes" dimension while moving much less on the "Economic/Redistributive" axis. Interestingly, this leaves Democrats and Republicans with a pretty similar distribution along that axis.

I don't think this is a good method for comparing different time periods. In the 36th and 37th Congresses, the diehard pro-slavery Democrats versus the abolitionist Republicans, the graphs put the parties in the same relative positions as today and make the parties look less divided than today, even though the Democrats felt like they could no longer co-exist and seceded from the Union. It should also be obvious that the slave-economy Democratic Party was vastly different than the modern-day party, but the graphs don't reflect that.
That's the idea, should sound real. You can search online for AI voice over websites. It's becoming a booming business.
I was initially skeptical about your statement that Ron Main is avcrackpot, since he comes across as highly intelligent and very well versed in physics and mathematics. However, he also thinks there is a sufficiently strong axiomatic system to resolve all arithmetic questions, and claims Godel did not disprove this. That is indeed quackery. I guess he is one of those geniuses that went off the deep end.

>They disabled many loved extensions by power users for absolutely no reason at all!

The reasons were stated repeatedly. They rewrote the mobile browser engine, which broke extension API support since all of the internal APIs changed, and they didn't have the resources to support both browsers simultaneously for a long period of time, so they prioritized the most-used extensions first and will enable more extensions as the APIs are hooked back up underneath.

This had tangible benefits - the new browser is significantly snappier and uses less power in my experience.

>We should take firefox out of their hands before it is too late.

I was just saying to people interested in games, it is good to get a base level to advanced guide to every part including rendering, networking, gameplay etc that is a good source built from experience and explains things clearly. Yours looks like a great source for networking as well, thanks for adding it.

I see you reference Gaffer on Games and the Valve Latency Compensation article, both are great for understanding game networking and helped me greatly in shipped titles especially prior to Unity/Unreal using stuff like enet [2]/RakNet [3]/custom. Lots of networking libs inherited the best from those like reliable UDP, channels and dealing with NAT. Both are excellent libraries to help understand the full picture and get started. Lots of game engines networking libs are based on those.

Thank you for the feedback. I’ll ping the team to let them know about this thread.

The plugins were kept as separate repos - like Heroku Buildpacks, because I never had the time to vet/review them. I had written plugins for Ruby, Node.js, Erlang and Elixir because those are the ones I wanted. I did not expect the project to be active this long or have these many contributors, maintainers and users.

We’ll bring back the readme in the repo with usage instructions.

The question is: can that income fund the Google-style salaries and benefits that are currently being payed for people working on it?

Otherwise lots of existing employees may not want to be part of this split company. If that is a large loss of talent (think veterans with lots of experience) that could hurt the quality (security, stability) and velocity of the project resulting in much less interest from those companies to pay the Chrome company for their services. What I'd suspect at that point is that Google might just fork it and develop it internally for internal use only (it's going to be hard to trust a third party browser to access internal confidential/critical resources when said third party has trouble maintaining high quality engineering talent). We're talking about state actors here that could have much easier time attacking a smaller Chrome company to introduce data exfiltration code.
Homebrew could, and IIRC still can, build everything from source.
These are still registry entries and are still located in the same part of the registry and still with the same way. This hasn't changed. What's changed is registering applications to show up for the new UI is a huge pain requiring multiple registry keys, however simply setting the opening application for a given filetype/protocol is quite easy: either open a .reg file with reg.exe (pops up a code window) or regedit,exe (pops up a prompt), or add the entry programmatically (silent).

Personally, I'm still annoyed that removed the File Types settings in Windows 7(?), though some of them have made their way back with the new settings.
Direct democracy = popular vote, representative democracy = elected representatives.

China, Russia, USA, France and Switzerland are all republics: two are dictatorships, two are representative democracies, and one is a direct democracy. Canada, UK, Japan and Belgium are all constitutional monarchies, and all of them are considered democratic. Saudi Arabia and Qatar are monarchies, but certainly not democratic.

Democracy is a scale, probably better used as an adjective: the more democratic, the more power is wielded by the people.

Hiya, a bit of OT (again, last one promise!): I saw your comment about type systems in data science the other day (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25923839). From what I understood, it seems you want a contract system, wouldn't you think? The reason I'm asking is that I'm fishing for opinions on building data science infra in Racket (and saw your deleted comment in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26008869 so thought you'd perhaps be interested), and Racket (and R) dataframes happen to support contracts on their columns.

In some ways, it is. For somebody who changed their name, it's tons of paperwork, at least, to undo that. If they've published papers in the meantime, that name change likely cannot be fully undone. Depending on finances, there may be years of alimony involved. As others note, if children resulted from the marriage, there's no undo. People save money on auto insurance while married, and often, "divorced" is more expensive than "single". If the divorce is amicable, it may be easy to execute -- if not, thousands of dollars and perhaps years of legal battles will be involved. Depends what you call "easy", I guess
Agreed. Most 'reviewers' on YouTube especially are just hyping products for their own views. Positivity drives engagement, and negative reviews hurt it.
I hope no one is saying Privacy Sandbox is worse than third party cookies, or is trusting this article to form an opinion about it. Web advertising was a $319 billion dollar industry in 2019. Does anyone wonder who may be lobbying their government to scrutinize Google and offer themselves for interviews for articles like this? Does anyone think the result of beating up Project Sandbox will be more radical privacy protection?

No, I don't think this article has anything really to do with a better privacy outcome and everything to do with watering down Google's stance to something more status quo for the advertising industry.

There are no actual critiques of Privacy Sandbox's APIs here. There's no mention of what critics stand to lose if Privacy Sandbox becomes the standard. There's merely hand wringing of "but do you trust Google?" Everyone who's made themselves available for quoting in this article is a web advertising professional, including the ones who come off as not[1][2]. None of them care about you.

It’s just completely ahistorical too. Democratic voters picked HRC over Bernie and then they picked Biden over Bernie 4 years later. There was no conspiracy or “party machinery” involved as much as that pains the Bernie wing of the party.

Republican voters overwhelmingly picked Trump - and then turned out millions more in 2020 after they saw what he had done with the Oval Office. Just no remote equivocation between the two parties.
