The operative problem is that usually the primary output of an investigation is blame, and the primary method of improvement is punishing the people who are to blame. It's retributive justice as process improvement, and that's directly at odds with proper root cause analysis and process improvement.
The trick to punching UDP through NAT is to make the client do an outbound transmission first.

Also, a further note, the Anglo-Saxons only became Christian a bit further on in the 7th and 8th century, quite a bit after their initial conquest of the Britons in the 5th and 6th centuries.

The Britons (later, "Welsh") themselves were already primarily Christian, due to Roman occupation. They saw the Saxon invasion as a catastrophe not just because of the cultural displacement, but because it was pagan. (cf. Gildas "De Excidio et Conquestu Britanniae")

> It's not nearly as addictive.

Strangely I know more ex-heroin addicts than ex-alcoholics, and there are way more alcoholics out there, but that's just anecdotal data I guess :)

> It's not nearly as deadly.

Maybe if you leave out all of the DUI and accidents where alcohol played a role, you'd be right, but overall alcohol causes way more damage than heroin. While David Nutt ranked heroin as more addictive than alcohol, overall he found alcohol more harmful.[0] Precisely because even though it doesn't harm one as much as heroin, it's way more likely that you harm others with alcohol.

> It's much easier to control dosage.

Actually no. Lots of things affect gastrointestinal absorption of alcohol. Just compare a few shots on empty stomach vs after a meal. Also don't get me started with the absurdly long and not always obvious list of drug interactions that alcohol has.

Heroin, assuming known purity, will work roughly the same, either snorted, smoked or injected. If you make a point about its purity, that's a consequence of its legal status. Most, if not all of the interactions are self-evident (other CNS depressants).

> It has modes of consumption that are non-pathological.

I guess you have preconceptions about what heroin use implies. How is unwinding after work a pathological use of heroin vs whiskey?

> Honestly, this says more about you than about booze.

Ah, ad hominem to finish, a classic.

That's not what this is. The former Prime Minister recently said that allowing women to talk in meetings made them last too long. The women invited to these meetings are allowed to have opinions about the discussion, just not share those opinions at the meeting itself.

That's very different than "we invited the TPM to stand-up, on the condition they just listen."

> stuff like UX doesn’t matter as much as cost

Sure but until the UI is so bad that you end up accidentally sending out money you didn't intend to, it is important.

Separately, In the business UI I used previously with Citizens it was so easy to get locked out of your account (and I had no time for phone calls, which was the only way to unlock it after that) that so many payments were made late because I had no other choice; my schedule was already full and the payment would only be made when I could schedule time for that stupid phone call.

That led to delays and late fees of sorts, and that is money as well, all because of a bad UX.
that would require a coherent definition of what "wokeness" is. From my perspective it's a catch-all term which in most contexts could be replaced with "the left" or "social-justice-warriors" or "young people"

In the context of this thread, it's being used to describe people who want to fight for the formation of a union and against racial discrimination in the workplace.

If someone is on the other side of that argument it must be for one of two reasons; either they are anti-union (which, as a personal belief it is their right to be, but they don't have the right to limit others from forming a union) or they are pro racial discrimination in the workplace.

If I met someone that was either of those things, I would lose some respect for that person. Apologies for the "cancellation".
Also, to my recollection Pony is meant to be somewhat specialized for high-concurrency server applications, not for general-purpose tools/libraries.

If you translate an existing project into Rust, it is a derivative work and should retain the original license.

If the rewritten project gets more successful than the original (perhaps due to corporate promotion), you have morally stolen the work of the original authors.

If you write a project from scratch without looking, this of course does not apply. But I doubt that is how Rust rewrites actually happen, the temptation is too great.

FAA Releases Remote ID – Major Regulatory Change for Drone Flyers
Mechanical keyboards are kind of annoying because:

1. You have to try out a few to find one you like and most of them are only available online.
2. Mechanical keyboard enthusiasts drown out casual mechanical keyboard users. Most discussions you can find focus on overly advanced topics and most manufacturers cater to the enthusiast crowd. I don't think most casual users care aren't that nitpicky about performance or aesthetic, but the customization options appeal to the enthusiast crowd I suppose.

In my experience, I like low-profile mechanical keyboards with blue or brown switches. I was happily using a keyboard I found on Amazon for $40 that's now unavailable. I ordered two more expensive ones later on and hated them.

I recently got a Keychron K3 low-profile keyboard with optical switches and enjoy it a lot. It might be worth giving that one a shot when it's available again.

Edit because I can't edit my post anymore: Kotlin.
You're right, but there's a crucial and fundamental difference between surveillance and posting to social media: the second is voluntary. The poster has chosen to share whatever it is. They may not be completely aware of the full range of consequences, but it's still their choice. In some measure, the tech is empowering them to do this thing that they want -- to be noticed.

Surveillance -- including stuff like profiling people by analyzing their voluntary social media posts -- is imposed on a person by someone else. It is taking away the surveilled person's free choice, and its entire purpose is to gain power over them.

There's also absolutely no inherent reason that surveillance -- the deliberate steps of gathering/cataloging/analyzing -- has to come along with people being able to post things in public. That's just a f'd-up practice that our society has adopted.
Was it toxic? Or did one person feel it was toxic?

From what I can tell, the union pleas are being ignored. That doesn't make a toxic workplace. It's unfortunate, but it's not toxic.

My management ignored my pleas not to litter iframes all over the app and scrape shitloads of client data, but I don't consider that treatment as "toxic". I also didn't get a raise this year and my pleas were met with "everybody didn't get a raise, that's just the way this year went".

So I'm really struggling to see how making pleas to your management = toxicity. What kind of bullshit victimization is that?

Safari for Mac to Support WebM Video Playback 11 Years After Its Launch
I went to QCC from 98-01 and you'd sit in the admin building on an IBM green screen terminal and setup your schedule. There was little to no prerequisite checking so I made all sorts of goofy schedules and took classes out of order. I don't remember having any issues with it as the interface was pretty strait forward.

I wound up going back several years later when I was thinking of a different field and they had that trashcan CUNYfirst system. By then the UI was already outdated and clunky. I wound up with the wrong class the first time around because of some issue and have to have it changed post payment which was time consuming. I would have rather used the IBM's.
Any chance you took FRAP last spring? Hi, maybe-classmate :)
>Facebook has come clean on a slight error in how it presented video view time on its platform. A mismatch in how average video view time is calculated and how it is defined — resulting in that number being reportedly inflated by a trivial 60 to 80 percent, for a short period of two years.

I don't understand - a "slight" error and 60-80% is "trivial" for a "short" period of two years? Is it just me or is this language excessively apologetic? Or is it meant to be ironic?
> undefined behavior in C compilers

My unpopular opinion is that UB fear is greatly exaggerated these days, especially by folks who want to capture developers for their languages. Somehow, they bring it up every time they can. Is like every time you want to jump into your car, I jump from behind a bush just to tell you "remember car accidents!".

I write C for a living, for the past ~20 years (mostly for embedded/kernel/drivers). I can't recall my last UB problem (if any). It's true. Though, I did find myself reading the ASM output just to discover that some instruction was omitted or does weird things (compiler bug).

Don't forget that the world runs on C.
After a quick search on YouTube I was somewhat unsatisfied; the few videos I looked at showed the effect only partially. People do sometimes like to bias the burn towards the yellow flame, either for entertainment or to keep the temperature of the stove down. Also it's hard to capture. My own attempts to photograph the effect haven't been successful due to the movement of the flame and the gentle low red glow that it gives off.
From what I've read, this varies hugely among the population. Some people seem to not be affected by them at all. Some people are able to use them short-term for pain relief and stop with no drama when the pain subsides. And some people get dangerously addicted even with a legitimately prescribed short-term dose for actual crippling pain. It seems it's often hard to determine which one a person is ahead of time.

FWIW, good on you for recognizing that you're one of the third group and getting off of it entirely before the addiction gets even worse.

Methodologies sure, I can pull up some of the formulas they use. The dataset on the other hand, that is secret. A independent party cannot calculate CPI and end up at the same result as BLS. For something as important as inflation, and for this to be considered remotely scientific, the results need to be repeatable by independent parties.
I'd had my eye on the K1 and now the K3, and have hesitated for the reasons you cite: at the end of the day, flattening a mechanical keyboard just feels like incompletely reverting back toward what is admittedly the superior typing experience of the Apple Magic Keyboard.

I'm actually typing this on a Keychron K2 version 1 with Gateron brown switches, and it took a few weeks of trial and error as well as a wrist pad to be able to type anywhere near the comfort and speed of what had worked for me for years (but seemed like a recipe for disaster): hunched over my laptop's built-in keyboard and display at a standing desk, no external monitor or keyboard needed or desired.

Infuriatingly, the Keychron series' spacebar is noticeably longer than on Apple keyboards. The Keychron spacebar partly overlaps X and comma, whereas Apple keyboards for as far back as I can recall are exactly aligned with the outer edges of C and M. I also miss the Fn at far lower-left of Mac keyboards.

Yep, I had never heard of it but recognized it as an Oracle app immediately. Not surprising at all.

Im not sure how I feel about this. I do think that Dr Hart is probably right in an academic sense. What I worry about is that reality is messy. I think in the spectrum of people in the world there are likely people who can take heroin and only take it once in a while. He may even not be glossing over the harm drugs do in his life(I dont know him so I wont make that judgement).

I know if I had a ready supply of clean heroin I would probably not just take it once in a while. Ive never done heroin, and that is because I know how much I like hydrocodone and its much weaker chemical cousins. I also know 2 people severely harmed by heroin use.(Brothers in fact) Maybe if they had a regimented way of copping it and safe supply of needles one of them wouldnt have Hep C now.

The real problem with treating opiates or other drugs as a public health problem is that the US does not have that sort of infrastructure set up to deal with the problem. Why do you think the police are called in now for drug problems(non criminal)? There is literally nobody else to deal with it. I dont agree with locking up addicts, but is checking them into a hospital with no insurance a viable option?
I've only ever tried opioids after being a surgery. I was prescribed off oxy to take every 4h. Was supposed to take it for two weeks. Every dose knocked me out and made me feel so uselessly drowsy… I quickly dropped it to one a day and by day 3 I just stopped taking it altogether. Couldn't stand it… the pain was better than the feeling of being high. I ended up using barely 5% of the prescribed amount. Random acquaintances came out of the woodwork to ask to buy my pills. I just tossed them all… that shit was nasty and I didn't want it nor did I want to enable anyone.

And I say this as someone who's plenty happy with drugs legalization, who likes the occasional MDMA, and who drinks plenty of alcohol. I guess I'm lucky I never run the risk of opiates addiction, because despite all that I have no desire to every touch the stuff again.
Because there isn't workplace discrimination, it's just a bunch of people acting "concerned" and being ignored. What is the actual issue, aside from being "concerned"?
> Opiate addiction comes along with flu like symptoms, insomnia, restless legs/arms AKA crazy legs, and an ever present anxiety that you really really want some that will make you do some weird shit just to get it. ... Many are all in your head, or, can be overcome by willpower, but definitely not opiates

Sure, but one can be dependent on e.g. SSRIs or SNRIs. But they aren't addictive!

Dependence + addiction is a special problem with opiates, I think you can die from withdrawals?
I hate the butterfly keyboard, but I have a similarly-weird affection—I love Apple's circa-2010 desktop keyboards. These are the USB keyboards that shipped with iMacs up until ~2015 (prior to the Magic Keyboard), as well as the "Apple Bluetooth Keyboard" that runs of two AA batteries.

The keys have more travel than their laptop equivalents (and much more than the Magic Keyboard), but not enough to actually slow down typing. Just the right amount of spring.

There is a big issue with UX with Oracle products, I have been telling it for ages, no changes. Even Thomas Kurian said “I want to make sure that the entire HCM dev organization understands what a disgrace your UI [user interface] is and stop living in denial on that.”
The amount is unusually large for this type of mistake, making it newsworthy, but it isn't particularly unique. I have personally seen a couple cases of various mistakes in banking (both on customer and bank's side) causing accidental repayment of debt that otherwise would be unrecoverable as the payer became insolvent. Mistakes happen. Human processes and technical processes can help make a bit less mistakes, UX is part of that.

Obviously this is highly anecdotal, but for the 5 years that I lived in Spain, I was a regular drug user.

With the exception made of MDMA & speed (That I'll consume both on occasions) I was consuming weed, hash and mushrooms on a weekly basis.

And everybody on a certain group of friends was doing the same. We had a surplus of mushrooms, as we had somebody in our group (A neurobiologist) growing them.

13 years ago I came back to Argentina, and then stopped consuming cold turkey.
