>Features that haven't been fully baked would be pushed in to the current release because people wouldn't want to wait another 6 months to see their work come to fruition.

Only if Rust has an awful leadership team organizing those releases. Strong leadership and careful release planning nips this right in the bud. "Your feature was only 'finished' a week ago? No way in hell is it making the release. See you in six months."

The other view is that shipping less frequently encourages features to be shipped fully baked and matured, with plenty of time for careful thought and attention given to their design and implementation.

I used to run my own Xhyve based VM just to avoid the brutal VirtualBox Docker system on macOS. Man that’s some bad memories.

The newer Docker for Mac is better, but file system perf still could be massively improved. Big node_module directories can still cause pain even today

There are active open bugs today in GCC and clang for x86 where optimizations can break standards-correct code [0] (writing to a union through a pointer to a currently inactive member, which std::variant does internally). For more obscure platforms and older releases, there are bound to be numerous bugs. In particular, volatile handling is notoriously shoddy on many platforms.

As an aside, the clang bug would also affect Rust if they used that type of optimization (assuming strict aliasing rules).

No comments on the political motivations of this move. In the 1800s, Parisian neighborhoods were demolished to make way for wide boulevards, as they were harder to barricade and easier to move troops through.

Similar situation in Cairo. Moving the government to a far off, easily protected location means mass protests are dramatically less effective.
Especially when I fully understand all the components, but might never have thought to hook them together that way.
Interesting. According to the German Wiktionary, yes.

Back in high school (in Austria, speaking German) I've been told several times by a Unix grey beard I had as a teacher that "Unixen" is the preferred plural of Unix, similar to "VAXen" for VAX, which the English Wiktionary does seem to know about.

uBlock Origin actually has a blocklist for cookie warnings. It would still allow sites to function normally without the constant interruptions.

To be fair to GP, running sql database inside a container does have benefits for development, and in many situations, for deployment too.

However, if I do some exploratory experiments, where I don't care about repeability and where I use other local tools (like the mentioned mapnik, or jupyter), having it in container is needless complication.

Callcc is pretty unstructured. Delimited continuations are a bit more structured and, to me, seem a useful primitive even if application code shouldn’t ever use them. Common Lisp has lexically scoped goto/return which can be useful. Example:

(defun foo-find (foo x &key (test #'eql))
(foo-iter foo (lambda (bar)
(bar-iter bar (lambda (y)
(when (funcall test x y)
(return-from foo-find y)))))))

Some people try to implement something similar using exceptions but this only works if nothing swallows your special exception on its way up to the block you’re trying to return from.

You're confusing not wanting prolong life in a state of unbearable pain because of an incurable, terminal illness, and willful, intentional suicide or homicide. There is a very big difference.

In medicine, a distinction is made between ordinary and extraordinary care. Ordinary care concerns the basic needs of the patient such as air, food, water. Extraordinary care concerns medical treatments meant to cure or otherwise treat the disease or disorder. Typically, neither a patient nor anyone else can deprive a terminally ill patient of ordinary care. However, when providing of such things constitutes an "undue burden", such as when the body is no longer able to digest food or absorb liquids and the offering of food and drink actually causes harm, the patient may refuse food. At that point, you are accepting your powerlessness in the current situation, i.e., one in which the patient is in a state from which he cannot recover and for whom death is imminent.

Even treatments that may extend the life of the patient can be licitly refused by the patient if it would, again, pose an undue burden (for example, a weak, terminally ill patient may refuse CPR if his condition is such that the procedure, which is physically traumatic, while potentially able to extend the life of the patient by some small amount of time, would leave the patient in a state of great suffering during their last few hours).

So extension of life at any cost is not the goal of most people who oppose euthanasia. Natural law theory is perhaps the most vehemently opposed to euthanasia and will serve as an excellent resource for considering these kinds of questions.

I would caution you against making appeals to subjective feelings in a vacuum, which your examples attempt to do. This is dangerous because we are capable of feeling all sorts of things and being confused about all sorts of things. The crude subjectivism of our times puts excess emphasis on such things without understanding them in an objective context (which itself may be misunderstood or crudely understood).
It is POSIX UB, as the standard gives no guarantees what happens when the signal returns in such cases, so each OS is free to do whatever they feel like.

That is likely the main reason. In Myanmar, they did the same a little over a decade ago. By moving up north to a newly built city with 20-lane highway and lots of bunkers to hide (I only saw photos of them being built and they are most likely for the military government and their families to hide out before they move away if something happens), the military thinks it can buy some time and defend better in case of civil war or foreign invasion.

I fully agree on all that you've said.

Certainly some things are harder/impossible with kids.

Even just strolling around or just laying in bed is harder if you have kids, unless, as you said, you give them an ipad or let them watch TV, or get a nanny.

I can't distinguish between what is described and service oriented (SOA) approach:

A reminder that Thoughtworks was highly influential in pushing Microservices. This may be an elaborate mea-culpa ("oops, SOA was actually more sensible") without admiting 'culpa', rehashing SOA with a set of features (above) that look awfully like those highly elaborate SOA proposals with XML and all sorts of meta-data to 'couple' these "data products' (previously called Services).

Ask HN: Google Certificate for Android Development?
I want to learn to code / sign-up for a course on coding & I just received an e-mail that The Google Certificates option has opened up.

The "degrees" to pursue are IT Support, Data Analytics, Project Management, UX Design & Android Development.

I was about to sign-up for Android Development, but out of all the career-paths listed, it has the lowest of "job-openings" (albeit higher entry-level pay) out of the certificates offered .. ~ 36,000.

For $39/mo., (& 6 mo. worth of time) is learning to code with Kotlin a good place to start?

If you were to pursue the "Learn to code at 30" route, would you sign-up for a bootcamp or just buy Eloquent Javascript & charge?

It's a little clunky, but you could use a Windows RFC2217 remote serial server with socat on the Linux side to make a virtual serial port tied to a real one. I've done this (albeit not with WSL), and it did work.

What’s an NFT?

NFTs allow you to buy and sell ownership of unique digital items and keep track of who owns them using the blockchain. NFT stands for “non-fungible token,” and it can technically contain anything digital, including drawings, animated GIFs, songs, or items in video games. An NFT can either be one-of-a-kind, like a real-life painting, or one copy of many, like trading cards, but the blockchain keeps track of who has ownership of the file.

I saw a documentary on the personality-testing industry recently. They did an interview with an older chap fresh out of prison who was attending public job search classes, who said that when he went in. computers were running software from the 1980s and upon getting out he had to learn all about the "Google world" from scratch. It made me realize how fortunate I was: not only had I been exposed to the Google world from the outside, but had I been in prison all that time I could probably acclimate myself to it fairly easily upon leaving. I'd be outraged at the things the Google world does, but I'd have a clear head and shoulders advantage navigating it over someone who did not have my proclivity for all things computer.

The Google-world guy stood out. I felt for him. The film's epilogue shows him successfully getting a job as a building supervisor, but what are we doing for people like him? Employment services in my state offer free computer courses to people seeking jobs, but is that enough? And are the services in other states more spotty?

A legitimate interest is a use of personal information that is needed to fulfill a service. This would be something like a session cookie for storing the contents of a shopping cart, a site's preferences, or login information. Using a cookie is the only way to provide that, and the user is basically implicitly asking for something to be stored. It would be silly to have a consent checkboxes like "before you can shop with us we need your permission to register what you want to buy" or "you give us permission to share your address details with the delivery company so they can actually deliver stuff to you".
Easier for them to compete internationally as Nestle, Lindt, etc. will have to either reduce their production or find other (possibly more expensive) cocoa sources.

Also it prevents from having internal competition between exportation and internal refining, as exportation is easy "right now" money while refining will take time and investments.

"In discussing ways of competing with open source, Document I suggests that one reason that open source projects had been able to enter the server market is the market's use of standardized protocols. The document then suggests that this can be stopped by "extending these protocols and developing new protocols" and "de-commoditiz[ing] protocols & applications". This policy has been internally nicknamed "embrace, extend, extinguish". Document I also suggests that open source software "is long-term credible ... FUD tactics can not be used to combat it", and "Recent case studies (the Internet) provide very dramatic evidence ... that commercial quality can be achieved / exceeded by OSS projects."

Personally I think all efforts to protect online privacy and stop tracking are wrong. But not in an obvious way. It sees right at first. But the truth it is impossible in the long run to keep privacy and not be tracked on the internet.

But the effort is to fight tracking and protect privacy at all cost. Even if this destroys foundations of the internet.

Moreover it gives the false belief that clicking NO will protect you from tracking, that companies protect your data.

But it is not a true belief. People should be aware that every password and everything transmitted through the internet can be tracked and may become public one day. And act accordingly.

It is just like data protection. You can have firewalls, antivirus and so on. But what you always really want to have is a backup.

The same goes for privacy and tracking. You can use some measures to protect, but you should act as you are tracked and everything can become public one day.

But such laws ensure people they don't need to act in such a way, what makes them less safe in the end run, rendering these laws to making people surprisingly less safe contrary to the intention of law makers.
