Quite the opposite, any developer that so much as glances at the leaked source code is banned from the project. The legality of ReactOS rests upon its developers reverse engineering Windows without having access to the source code.
You don’t know it’s false. However your comment made me curious and I was amazed that it’s still inconclusive what caused his death. And why was that...

> on Wednesday, pro-Trump rioters attacked that citadel of democracy, overpowered Mr. Sicknick, 42, and struck him in the head with a fire extinguisher, according to two law enforcement officials. With a bloody gash in his head, Mr. Sicknick was rushed to the hospital and placed on life support. He died on Thursday evening.

- NYTimes

> He died the day after he was <overpowered and beaten> by rioters from the mob at the Capitol.

NYTimes now links to the above article when referencing the incident.

> Capitol Police officer Brian D. Sicknick, 42, a 13-year veteran of the force, died as a result of injuries sustained while engaging with rioters. The exact cause of his injuries has not been made public, with investigators lacking evidence that could prove somebody caused his death.[349] Reuters reported that Sicknick suffered a thromboembolic stroke[350] and collapsed after returning to his division office

- Wikipedia

So the cause is not known yet, there is no evidence, and he wasn’t rushed to hospital after immediately sustaining injuries but instead returned to the precinct and then felt unwell. Also texted his brother that he was maced twice but felt fine.

NYTimes is such bullshit, I can’t believe how brazenly they do this stuff. If someone is “beaten on the ground and rushed to hospital” you don’t really question that or feel you need to fact check - because it seems like something that would be easily falsified if it weren’t true.

Yet the NYT manage to do it.

How does it handle de-serializing to structs with interface members? With encoding/json and ffjson, I had to write some code to handle that myself and add a type-tag member to my struct, which wasn't a deal-breaker, but if I could avoid that, I would like that very much.

I'm also looking forward to using an eInk display for work, but I'm not quite as optimistic as you are for minimalism. As the technology improves we're going to see higher and higher framerates, and eventually color eInk will be affordable.

IMO it's much more likely that we'll end up with the same visually overloaded GUIs, just running on a color, 60fps eInk display than having the whole industry return to static black and white.
I forget the details, but generally, no. They want a clean room implementation, so if you've seen the code, you might even unconsciously copy it. They've taken license matters very seriously, so ReactOS devs would probably actively avoid looking at the code for the legal safety of the project.
> If only carbon based life is possible and it needs liquid water then, afaik, most of these stars don't have a planet susceptible of hosting life as we know it, and even for the ones with the right conditions we might be a bit early or a bit late.

My point is, there are likely millions or even billions of planets in that photograph alone, with the perfect conditions for sustaining human life.

I can’t say with certainty that there is life, but by God would it surprise me if there weren’t.

I still don't understand what happens when you actually break something expensive that you hire?

Doesn't some 3rd part have to verify the damage?
Doesn't the 2nd part then have to still take a part of the bond?

What if the 2nd part just says you broke something, when you didn't, who solves that?
You could also introduce the quote instead of modifying it (you probably are doing that already anyways).
I'm a fullstack developer and I started picking up more modern frontend frameworks 3 months ago. Has this person try to manage a large complex site with just HTML, CSS, and JavaScript/Jquery? It's a mess, a complicated mess. Sure, for small sites and small codebases, use basic tools. However, how many companies are building basic sites now? React, Typescript, SCSS, and all these other technologies came around not to make your life more difficult. It popped up because for specific use cases it makes your life a whole lot better. Also, backend is not any easier...

That's a red flag to stay away from the company anyway if they have no onboarding or mentoring.
It's not entirely embarrassingly parallel because photons from nearby light sources interact, so you need to do a parameter exchange. That said, it is true that it doesn't need the low latency fabric that supercomputers traditionally used (though these days the architecture isn't all that different from what you'd have in a traditional data center). We were actually approached by Microsoft to duplicate the demo on Azure, but they ended up being unable to find enough spare capacity for us to run it at full scale, so we showed off a small scale demo. In this particular case, the supercomputing center was quite interested in our application because they wanted to test their setup with more "data analysis heavy" workloads, since they had invested a lot in SSD caches for this kind of work, but most of their workloads didn't require it.

Absolutely pathetic.
Thanks for the clarification. I always wished Python would make it easier somehow to auto-detect the slots from the constructor. I don’t think it’s just a memory optimization though since they mention access of when slots is defined things are faster and benefit more from this optimization.

I wrote down our reasons for moving from IRC to a self-hosted Mattermost here: https://reactos.org/project-news/new-discussion-platform/

We never broke ties with IRC though. You can still join #reactos or #reactos-dev on Freenode, both are bridged to their corresponding Mattermost channels using Matterbridge.

Our Matrix server was set up right in time for FOSDEM 2021. It will soon be extended to bridge to the IRC and Mattermost worlds, as Matrix integrates even better with Freenode's IRC server than Matterbridge.

As an open-source project, never place your bets on a single third-party platform!

> we do use AJAX, but in the "deliver server-rendered HTML and inject into the DOM" sense

Injecting HTML into the DOM is literally what React does...

You can even server render that HTML and then hydrate the DOM with interactivity after the fact.

I don't understand why people make the distinction between server rendered and client rendered HTML when React can do both anyway.

The main value of React is being able to easily manage client state and efficient updating of the DOM.

If not a framework, how do you add interactivity to your pages? Vanilla JS?
I have (had, I guess) a Wordpress site on here. They sent an email about the hack but somebody had already changed my password and recovery email in cPanel. They haven't changed the Wordpress admin credentials though, so I'm exporting what I can.
I don't mind SQL; my main reason for using an ORM at the moment (gorm, it has its flaws) is one, automatic database migration, and two, I don't have to manually map a resultset to my struct; code like that is tedious and error-prone.

Gorm is not the best when it comes to managing relationships though, to put it mildly.

>Also 5$ would be like 15 mins of any qualified persons time, so really you’re not paying much.

Be less minutes than that I dare say. $20 an hour tech costs, then you have overheads and that's without a profit margin. I'd say 5 mins be more closer to the mark. Really gets down to how many support calls you have as if you have a couple admins who have to dip into a support queue, then their hourly rate would be higher. However if you have a nice frontline 1st line support pool with 2nd and 3rd for escalation model/scale then it will get cheaper.

That all said you have to factor in how much support they use and maybe your average user will need one or two tickets a year and then at the other end you the types who fail to read FAQ's and end up needing more support to use their computer, let alone the service and blur the lines contacting you for an issue that after some back and forth turns out to be the user's end. Those will be costly. So you balance things out - and go with the average and yet at the same time, dread some types of customers.
Einsteinium Is Mysterious. Scientists Have Unlocked Some of Its Secrets
I wonder if this an attempt to validate philosophy as a science in itself now that other sciences have invalidated many philosophical positions as being valid. My primary feeling about most philosophy is that it is a historical science instead of a systematic science, where the ideas of a certain philosopher are placed in the context of history. It also seems to me that the philosophers are more important than their ideas and that when a philosopher changes his ideas, they talk about the early and late.
> Lately I've been seriously thinking of reimplementing that, as I just can't seem to find a decent static site generator.

Look at this on google maps https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Summerfield+Browne+Solic...
Interesting angle. I've come round to the benefits of ORMs for query building and results-to-objects. Especially since I used LINQ; linq-on-objects and linq-on-xml are incredibly useful even outside a database.

The one big anti-pattern I've seen in systems that use ORMs is the "manual query" or especially "manual update": rather than doing something in the DB, the programmer retrieves some objects, iterates over them with a FOR loop or similar, makes changes, and then writes them back to the database. This is absolutely terrible for performance and prone to concurrency errors.

(are there ORMs in which all returned data objects are forced to be immutable? I think that would help.)

Gaming is mainstream now. What this means practically is that there are a bunch of big players pushing junk, and a smaller portion making amazing, wonderful games. This is the problem of the mainstream. Video games are no longer a niche interest, so there is a lot of money.

Anyhow, there are more amazing games available now than any other time in history. (especially since all the old games are still available for the most part) The problem is that per capita, modern games are quite bad. In raw numbers, though, there are more amazing games out there than ever before. Much like the rest of modern media, the challenge is in filtering out the junk. There's more choice and abundance, and much of it is of poor quality.
Whether it sounds fake or not, there is next to zero chance it is fake. Imagine the consequences if it wasn’t.
The Billion-Dollar Plan to Kill Credit Cards
One of the reviews:

> They track you on their website without any form of confirmation which is required under GDPR law. Since it's been law for well over a year I dread to think how many times this firm has broken the law themselves. I encourage all people that have visited their site to record proof of you being on their site and take these shady lawyers to court. I would advise suing for £25,000...

They might only get £750 each ("Halliday v Creation Consumer Finance Ltd") but I would definitely do that. At the very least, a complaint to the ICO.

Another review:

> Moral: DO NOT SHOP at any online store, if they use trustpilot

Absolutely. I usually take my business elsewhere if a site prominently displays Trustpilot. Where that's not to my advantage, I write to their DPO citing GDPR Article 21 and request that they do not in any way share my data with this website.
Even if I agree with the principles of the anti-censorship people, to be an activist to apply pressure on Signal for features instead of forking and building solutions is suspicious to me. Signal does a great job of frustrating mass interception, which I think was its original point.

Inventing new criteria and re-framing their product as inadequate for this scope change as an activism play seems insincere. We can expect this kind of pressure to be applied to all BDFL-run software projects, as I think there is an emerging organized play to insert new governance over foundational internet software.

I came to a similar conclusion after hearing their "The Daily" report on phishing attacks pre-election. They described the phishing attempt as "looking exactly like a Facebook login form" and then said that this level of sophistication could only be accomplished by a state actor — obviously Russia in this case.

I was blown away and had that same thought: if they got this so wrong, and I can tell because I know about the topic, what don't I know about that they're also getting so wrong?
This. But, I would extend it to say that if you are solo dev it may also make sense to just use base JS to get stuff out quicker. If you have a team, then frameworks start making more sense b/c it extends best practices farther into the app.
Detailed answer at the end of the 2nd page of that thread.
Amusing (in a terrifying way) that the judge ruled the review was likely to dissuade other clients from doing business with the law firm.

Isn't that the whole point of a site like TrustPilot and of reviews in general?

Does this mean everyone who has ever received a negative review now has grounds to sue for defamation?

A defence against defamation is evidence that the accusations are true. Did the judge even check?
Came here to object to objection to ORM hatred.

ORM were never worth the trouble. There's on "impedance mismatch", you just use data wrong (wrapped as objects as opposed to data records).
Unlikely. Although if I ever get round to it I'd like to start an open source compiler textbook to try and centralise knowledge in this area since the field is simply too advanced to summarise in a single book these days.

I recently bought Threema and I can only say that I like it more than Signal. Now it even has local (meaning your images don't leave your phone) object detection in images, global search in chats, etc. The only thing that's missing is usage on multiple devices and a native desktop client - but the app itself is great so far.

The answer from Moxie to these people: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-TLS-Proxy/pull/15#issuec...

I think that says it all.

I'm also a bit concerned that "security researchers" don't seem to understand the threat model. Signal has never claimed to be able to hide that it was being used. The TLS proxy is only meant to help circumvent censorship, not obfuscate its protocol. And indeed, as a temporary solution, it's not ideal even to circumvent censorship. But they're apparently working on something better, and all this distraction is not helping.
