Which amazes me. Chrome does this check every time network settings change, including a new IP. So your Android phone connecting to various networks just spammed this stuff for no reason. The fact that this fixed dropped root server requests by nearly 50% is astounding.

There is no convincing evidence of naked short selling in GME.

And it’s always been considered market manipulation to coordinate groups of investors to make the same trade, since the 1920s. I don’t think anything done on WSB crossed the line but it was in the vicinity.

The only clearly illegal acts were committed by DeepF**ingValue, since he had special obligations as a heavily licensed broker and brokerage firm employee while making his tout videos.
Somewhat agreed. That's of course not to say that "it was solved in 2005, it never needs to be revisited again" but approaching many issues as "tech" issues, and also not having some background/history of what came before (and the why behind it) leads to a lot of wasted time/effort.
Timely, I suppose, since there's talk of partitioning DNS cache in the browser...which will drive it back up.
Former moderator of TheDonald recalls forum's hate, racism and violent threats
I've had a really unpleasant experience with DO a few years ago. A full ticket of 5+ mails and each one of them felt like it was picked from a list after reading a couple keywords from my issue. They did of course not solve the problem in the end, but not before someone actually replied not understanding the context at all (can't blame them) and using a condescending tone to me.
Some of it looks not unlike Rosseau, which is quite highly regarded, despite many considering them a joke at the time.

The article, though, doesn't mention that the arc trajectory of ballistic missiles means they are spotted faster.

But such missiles are nowadays - as far as I know - primarily detected via infrared from space and not radar stations near the target which turns the atmospheric trajectory into a disadvantage due to heating of the vehicle which is also mentioned in this article.
Which of course will lead to a refusal of anyone who ever intends on owning a firearm from ever seeking or discussing mental illness.

> The larger problem, though, is that it's not at all clear that Firefox will remain a viable alternative to Chrome. Its market share has been falling for years, and not everybody is pleased with the directions that the Mozilla Foundation has taken.

I'm disappointed by how many people cling to Chrome/Chromium under the justification that they don't like where Mozilla is going. If you can't tolerate Firefox because of Mozilla's problems, how can you possibly stomach Chrome/Chromium with Google at the wheel?

I believe browser diversity is healthy for the world wide web. I don't want Firefox to become dominant either, but right now there is a short supply of browsers which are independent from Chromium. I don't want the W3C to be replaced by the Chromium Project.

I believe Firefox is a good enough browser to go toe-to-toe with Chrome. It and it's developer are not without problems. However, at this point I'd use Firefox even if Mozilla was just as bad as Google because I think the diversity is worth it.
He's clearly an insane person. There's no use getting worked up about what some digital hobo is screaming.
Interestingly, it's the only game I know of that uses deterministic coding for multiplayer - rather than updating the game state for everyone (since there are potentially tens of thousands of moving items every tick), all clients simulate it locally using code verified to be deterministic so that everyone ends up with the same view of the game.

If I had to guess, I'd say they could wait for the next highly publicized shooting event. A compliant media will create hysteria as always. Aside from partisan concerns, fear drives media engagement. It isn't hard to imagine how such a scenario could be leveraged to get a bill like this passed.

If the courts strike it down later, they'll cross that bridge when they come to it.
Rust very deliberately treats parsing as an isolated step in compilation. The ASTs of {function + type parameter + arguments} and {value + indexing + call} are very different. At parse time, you don’t know what types and values are in scope—they’re resolved later.

Some languages have been willing to compromise on this (C and C++ certainly do, and Perl is famously unparseable), but it always causes a great deal of pain, as you can’t build any sort of isolated tooling around the language any more, but must use an actual compiler to even try to parse the thing properly if you want to be robust; static analysis is thus made more difficult, especially as you must now look at entire projects and can’t properly look at individual files—and worse, you must be able to compile the project to be able to analyse it.

So Rust has deliberately gone the other way: you can parse the language easily and completely, so any form of static analysis doesn’t need a real compiler to back it and can act on files in isolation.

In short, Rust is philosophically obdurately opposed to needing to do disambiguation in the parsing phase.

So it’s actually not really about the actual ambiguity, which might not even be a thing—I can’t remember whether {function + type parameter} would be looking up in the type or value namespaces, so my example might actually be wrong there—but rather that you can devise supporting code that would seem to make `a[b](c)` mean two different things, and that’s untenable for Rust, because it refuses to let scope contents influence the parse.

This is such an unhealthy attitude. Just because something is free doesn't make it above criticism. Also doesn't mean that the maintainers don't benefit from their projects even if there isn't direct compensation (more career opportunities, visibility, etc.) This idea that we need to walk on eggshells around anyone that does any volunteer work is kinda absurd.
I will never understand how everyone forgets the first part of the second amendment. "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State". That pesky regulated Militia part that everyone skips over. Since the only "regulated militia" in the United States, currently, is the National Guard, that seems to state that you can't infringe on their ability to posses and carry fire arms.

I have heard several people use it for that umbrella term, particularly back in the days when I lurked around following the WHATWG and CSS mailing lists.

Consider that much of what is new in HTML5 vis-à-vis HTML4 is in the changes to its JS APIs (e.g., <canvas> is all about the JS API), and its requirement that browsers support other standards such as SVG. Actually distinguishing which component of the web stack actually has a particular improvement that you seek to use doesn't provide all that much value... what does it matter if it's really the WHATWG HTML spec that mandated it or it's the ES5 spec?

Instead, you can just call it all "HTML5" and understand that it's using newer technologies that won't work on legacy browsers, although we're now so far deep into the era that we don't have a terminology for what requires a 2020 browser versus a 2015 browser.

The FAQ doesn't have a specific entry about comment rankings, but I'd guess it's based off a similar system as the Stories rankings:

"How are stories ranked?

The basic algorithm divides points by a power of the time since a story was submitted. Comments in threads are ranked the same way.

Other factors affecting rank include user flags, anti-abuse software, software which demotes overheated discussions, account or site weighting, and moderator action."
I get that, and yeah have seen some of the same movies.

I do see a lot of potential in 23andMe (though I loathe the name—never put a number in your name! numbers are incredibly overloaded—millions of times less combinatorics; and they become outdated almost immediately—23 is a largely meaningless number).

But 23AndMe at least has built a large number of paying users. If they look at where medicine could be in 10-20 years, and have the courage, they've got a better shot than nearly anyone of leading the way. Someone could be a $1T universal health care company.

The health privacy issues I think are a red herring. Proper medical research entails generating strongly typed data that you can synthesize infinite records with one click. An individual's personal health data should be of little value, and if it's not, then we've got deeper fundamental problems with our system (which we do, but has nothing to do with 23andme)
Yes, but Heller relied on the text and history from a lot longer ago than that.

The point wasn't that mRNA was the way to go, the point was that the only reasonable way to prepare to mass produce any vaccines, mRNA or "traditional" formats, was for a government to either nationalize development of the production systems, or fork over billions of dollars to have the production lines ready for whatever vaccine was developed.

Instead, the administration sat on its hands and said "what could we possibly do?" and the mess we have today (in the US at least) is the direct result.
Interesting.

Caregather is looking for a Founding Software Engineer, who will work with us to define how our product vision meets technology. We will need your help to decide when and how to migrate off our no-code solution to our own tech stack. On day 1, you’ll be responsible for designing the data model, choosing our stack, and building our fulfillment system with vendor partners. We are looking for someone eager to join us in our mission to make care more confident, collective and bright.

Email me tripp @ caregather.com or apply on Angellist - https://angel.co/company/caregather/jobs

About Caregather
Caregather helps friends and family gather together to care better for those going through significant illnesses or injuries. There are 4x more diagnoses and serious injuries than weddings and billions of dollars spent on non-medical care each year, and yet this life moment remains severely underserved. We aim to fix that.

We provide free software tools to coordinate caregiving and a curated marketplace of products and services that friends and family can purchase to improve a patient’s quality of life. We’ve combined our mission with a social commerce business model that will propel the company and enable us to build powerful, free tools for those supporting others.

Both cofounders have personal experience with organizing communities of support for loved ones, so we’ve felt the need for what we are building personally. We used this experience and no-code tools to build a fully functional web application (feel free to play around on our site). We have folks actively using the product now and teaching us how we can continue to improve the user experience.

We were accepted into the Masschallenge Healthtech accelerator program (2021 cohort) in order to speed up our rate of learning. We are focused on honing our product roadmap based on user and expert feedback ahead of our first fundraise this spring.

Apply if you:
- are a Full Stack engineer with experience creating software applications from scratch and are excited to build something new from the ground up.
- have demonstrated technical design and programming expertise for front and back end
- have an ownership mentality - we need a builder who can join a fast-paced team.
- want to own technical decision making - we want to use the technologies that will provide the most value to our customers, and we will defer to you on what those are.
- believe in our mission and want to build a company that helps people.
- want to shape a category-defining company– our aspirations are huge, and the Founding Software Engineer will be part of leadership team. We will offer equity and competitive salary to join us from the beginning.

While we’re on the topic of the styling: you should basically never adjust the letter-spacing on body type. The font designers made the font the way they did on purpose; with the notable exception of all-caps text which does call for increasing letter-spacing, you will make it worse in almost all situations (>99.9%) for almost all body fonts (>99%). I find your chosen letter-spacing of 0.06em decidedly uncomfortable (it’d be too much even for all-caps loosening, that normally calls for something like 0.04em).

"Just trading one monopolist vendor lock-in for the same monopolist vendor lock-in, but now wearing a fake mustache."

I was originally pretty excited about Edge, even as a non-Windows user. I'm not sad to see IE go. But times have changed, and the balance of power has shifted. Now that IE is no longer dominant, simply losing it only worsens the browser oligopoly. Replacing it with a new rendering engine that's designed from the ground up to be standards compliant, though, makes things better. It could have meant that Firefox could once again have had an actual ally in trying to prop up a free and open Web.

Microsoft giving up on Edge's rendering engine and replacing it with Chromium, though, means that, ironically, the death of IE ultimately served to further exactly the bad situation that it once emblematized.

Had a very similar moment at one of the startups I worked for, which also served as my introduction to a new CEO.

Shortly after NewCEO was hired, we had an all-hands introduction meeting. "All hands" at this point meant about 50 people, so our largest conference room was packed. I ended up sitting on the floor by the big whiteboard, opposite NewCEO. He started talking about how bigger companies were (he believed) actively trying to reverse-engineer our product. Without exactly meaning to, I said "good luck" loudly enough to get his attention, so he looked at me expectantly.

"We're having enough trouble engineering it forwards."

A few people laughed. NewCEO kind of glared. I guess I should mention that I was the product architect BTW. We never particularly got along, but he was neither the first nor the last CEO I outlasted during my career so meh.

Getting back to the point, maybe a competitor who had access to our code might, with great difficulty, learn something about the problem domain we were exploring (continuous data protection). More likely they would have been misled by all the remnants of wrong turns we'd taken during the exploration process. They'd literally be better off without it. Our entire business was a gamble that we could get to market before bigger competitors woke up to the opportunity and threw more bodies/dollars at it. As it turns out, that's exactly what did happen. We lost the bet. Other people having our code would not have changed that outcome one bit.

With our child we weren't able to breastfeed. We had to use formula. All the U.S. brands like Gerber, Enfamil, and others gave the baby terrible colic.

We did extensive research (my wife's waking hours were consumed with this). We found Hipp Combiotic milk, and it was wonderful. It was a German brand, and adhered to EU standards for child health. Colic: gone. Within a month or two our child hit the 98% percentile for size and weight and stayed there.

Shortly after the baby switched to solid food, the U.S. began to "crack down" on imported formula that "didn't meet FDA standards." The EU standards for food safety are generally higher than FDA standards. I'm so glad we were able to get that formula before the government interfered.

Offices used to offer some of that protection (not extending to the home/personal life) to their employees by having a secretary/admin attached to individual teams. At my last office, they experienced a sharp decline in productivity as things like business travel, writing/tracking memos, scheduling meetings, etc. was shifted increasingly to the technical staff and individual workers.

Ostensibly, the travel site was more efficient, but only in the sense that they dropped a 5-person travel office that had previously handled things. But the site was so hard to use correctly that they hired another 5-person travel office and a 10-person finance team to help manage travel and the use of corporate cards for the office.
