I don't want to actually be fired - I have a family that depends on this income.

I hate the boring work. The business takes forever to decide what they want and describe it. If they had a well defined and documented business process, then we could turn that into a technical system much more easily. Along these same lines, they need to start giving us the complete picture of what the finished ecosystem should look like. Sure well build it out iteratively, but a proper architecture that accounts for future integration would save a lot of rework.

I hate that I have no real future. I spent years becoming an expert in an obscure technology because the company said they don't outsource or layoff. My job got outsourced and I was able to get another job at the company. Unfortunately the only thing available was an even less desirable tech stack (the manager even joked that she didn't think any internal people would apply). Now my original group got laid off. I've since moved onto another team with newer tech. Unfortunately, they don't allow a steady supply of the same type of work to become an expert. Instead, we working on multiple apps with multiple stacks. So, I'm expected to be an expert in the tech to get to the next level, but I don't see that as likely if we keep flipping back and forth between the stacks for each story or two.

I hate that my company has lied to me. Multiple times they have broken their own policies to my detriment. They have also changed policies that negative affect things, like grade structure and promotions.

I hate that there's no hope or future in sight.
> When the right wanted to ban media, a quire reasonable counter argument was "you don't have to buy, or read, the things you don't like".

I don't actually think the situation is all that different. I think it's still a perfectly reasonable counter-argument, which the other side will ignore, just as it did back then!

This is all a proxy for tribal, cultural warfare. It's never been about the books themselves, their potential for hurting people or anything else. It's about destroying the other side. The books and their authors and their readers are a means to to that end. There's no room for compromise under that framework. It's a ridiculous and unproductive situation.
Not an exhaustive list of possible reasons:

- (number_of_people_who_enjoy_coding_with_python_more_than_coding_with_c_sharp_or_java > 0) == True

- Some people have large existing codebases, and would rather add types gradually than have to port all their logic to another language.

- In terms of being free and open source, Python > C# > Java (meta: can you even do a comparison like that in C# and/or Java?)

Yes that is unfortunate - but all out of the remit of what an embassy will help you with. Maybe if things have gone so wrong for you that you throw loosing your passport into the mix, or being physically detained by the police in the host nation then perhaps they'll help out.

But, at least for my own country, they're definitely not there to help you with connectivity issues.

Idk what the creepy subliminal Charmin gifs are for, but there should definitely be an epileptic warning.
Right, but that's a problem more fundamental to Python and applicable far beyond the "abstract" classes hacked onto it. That is: if the methods were missing entirely, you'd have the same problem, since Python (without the help of external tools) doesn't make any attempt to validate these things at (bytecode) compile time.
DJI drones is another example
I know the Halloween documents, I've read them a bunch of times.

I don't think this is equivalent. It's their prerogative to not offer everything for free and/or make everything Open Source.

If they start banning Open Source extensions that do the exact same thing as their stuff, now that would be EEE.

Or if they change stuff in the platform to intentionally break Open Source extensions that compete with their extensions, that would also be EEE.

So far, there's no indication of that. This is just speculation.

Rust occupies a place that as a c++ developer is interesting. When someone says Ruby I think Python is good enough, I don't write a lot of the type of code where it is useful.

Haskell doesn't promise the type of control I need. Someone i work with rewrote our main control algorithm and proved it was correct (not in Haskell ,I just fear this problem ), but it took over a minute to run, and this PID loop needs to run at 5hz and leave some processor for other tasks. My c++ isn't proven correct but we have 15 years of production with it.

Rust promises to avoid some of the things we don't like about c++ while still worming in the real world. So of course I'm interested.
Both movies and books agree it's downhill. Also what we would call "skeleton" today. And if you go by the books, a course in Bentley repair is not necessary because James "has a guy."
Why not just use the mute keywords feature which already does this ?
As an EVE Online player for a while, absolutely agreed.

But I'll admit there is a "fairness gauge" regarding feature support (relevant here as well).

Code systems are non-comprehensive. They support only those functions / features they implement.

Thereby opening the possibility of creating a system that makes confidence heists possible, but mitigations against them overly difficult / impossible.
Good points. So step 3 can be to do an exit, when the software is really popular.

I wonder what's next for Elastic. And mongodb etc. And all their users and customers
Doubled it on just your store or for every store you integrate with?
You can't. You can control cookies. You can't control tracking.
You can purchase Chocolonely at Natural Grocers and Sprouts in the US, if they're in your area. It's the best quality chocolate I've ever purchased that didn't come from a chocolate shop, highly recommend it.

Coco is sold on world markets as a commodity good. Suppliers can't know what country the beans originated. To get guaranteed slave-free chocolate you effectively have to create your own logistics for that specific purpose. Any chocolate producers that haven't done that will have some amount of slave-produced coco mixed into their supply chain.
That way I'd lose the GDPR opt-outs from the number of sites I've gone through the process.

Perhaps I should just accept the consent and remove cookies regularly, instead of being careful with the consent forms... Hmm, good idea.

I appreciate the explanation.

I'm not convinced that metering your speech in this was has a specific, universal effect on an audience. (ie, I dispute the claim that metered speech prevents the audience from comprehending.)

To be clear, I'm equally skeptical that the mainstream media is attempting to deceive people by intentionally adopting this method. But even if they were, I simply don't believe it could be effective.

(although I'll admit it's bad writing.)
Any evidence relied on in court needs a chain of custody, and pictures and videos are no different. It's why screenshots are generally inadmissible in court: anyone could have edited them.
Fairly definitively that was always the wrong answer.

In the future:

1. Most people will get SARS-CoV-2 antibodies from their mothers

2. Early life exposure will happen

3. The SARS-CoV-2 virus will be force to make expensive mutations to avoid immune escape will come at a cost to fitness.

None of the conditions can be created by what you suggest. You have the problem of having the relatively most-lethal / most-transmissible version of the virus spreading unhindered in a population of >40 year olds who have no natural immunity. The "COVID party" solution maximizes the death and cost of the virus.
It sure can,

Indeed. I've run into this multiple times. Something as simple as "brew upgrade youtube-dl" could end upgrading dozens of _unrelated_ packages, such as postgres--which ends up breaking my local development environments. Perhaps that's the wrong command to use, but either way, it's still frustrating when it happens.
I don't believe so. The state by its nature wants to find equilibrium like practically every other system. One of the paths of least resistance is the manipulation of the public into an unthinking, docile, and generally inert individual. This makes everything much more predictable and controllable, which brings it closer to equilibrium.

You could intuit this sort of outcome, perhaps, from a reading of "Thinking, Fast and Slow". Humans don't really do well with probability, we want definitive binary outcomes that aren't reliant on probability. We want a quiet, well defined day to day. Politicians want the same thing (alongside a disproportionately large allotment of control and wealth in return). Want though, is the difficulty, because the reality is that the underpinnings of practically all human functions and the world in itself are fairly chaotic.

I think you're under the impression it's a noble goal in the name of progress, but [genuine] progress is disruptive in every field. That disruption breaks the equilibrium, and makes the quiet day a rather loud lifetime.

We do have outsourced customer service. But still I have to be aware of what the customers are complaining about. In some cases people are filing frivolous complaints to government agencies which you have to respond to. With Saas, I would go after the bad actors. With consumers the number of bad actors is endless.
There should be a Please-Track-Me option that anyone who wants to be tracked can send.

The lack of the header should indicate that the user denied consent to be tracked.
At this point I'm not a fan of higher taxes because the cost of living is going through the roof. If we had good healthcare not attached to employment, a modest cost of living, and effective social programs, I'd be happy to pay more in taxes.
There’s a lack of addressing mental health issues inside. There’s a lack of people thinking about what some people have dealt with since children and why they ended up inside. People wonder why there is recidivism or why people end up in jail. A lot of it has to do with the lack of opportunity and mentorship in peoples lives starting with childhood...and then especially after turbulent times, never introducing itself ever to these individuals. It’s not like people want to end up like this. For many of these individuals they’ve never had the support and opportunities many of us don’t realize we’re so lucky to have.
> They exploit Chrome, Samsung browser, Windows, Android, iOS, and Safari. It seems silly to say "if we had one more, it would have stopped them."

Samsung's browser and Chrome share 100% of attack surface; Safari and Chrome share likely near 70%. Windows and Android have Chrome built-in at the OS layer, iOS has Safari built in at the OS layer.

In this case, something like Firefox which shares much less attack surface would in fact solve the problem, because the problem is that other things have Chrome at the OS-level.

I have kids. It doea not work the way to describe, because they interrupt you too often for the discussion. Second reason is that their interruptions prevent serious engagement with ... pretty much anything and so your ability to talk about those things go down as well.

Fourth, you are not exposed to adults as much - you spend overwhelming majority of your time alone. That in turn makes people much more tiring when you meet them once in a while.

Fifth, you have competely different lifestyle then people who dont have kids of the same age. They dont understand you when you need to talk about your issues and frustrations and most likely will just dismiss them. Over time, you will do the same to them as you cease to understand their lifestyles.

Then again, people with same age kids that are around are very often having completely different interests and values, so taking about kids is the single one thing you have in common.

> one parent is with kids, the other has a free day; they can switch their roles the next day.

Yes this helps to keep sanity. But not that this is little bit of time where you want to pack everything - sport, socialization, professional learning, hobby fun. Prior kids, you engage in all of these multiple times a week. You literally socialize all the time in work, m whether you want it or not.

Once a week is not enough time nor enouh frequency to be good at something. It means to won't have feeling of personal achievement for a lot of time.

I mean, I see it the most clearly as kids get more independent and I see how much easier everything is becoming. I have seen how tiring people were when I came back to work and how difficult and tiring communication was at first. I think it took over year to get comfortable again and two years to build ability to have friends again.
>Guessing right most of the time isn't knowing. And people not knowing how sex and gender differ doesn't change the fact that they rely on gender markers lots and chromosomes never.

"gender markers" and "chromosomes" are the same thing for 99% of the population. So guessing really is knowing.

> People who menstruate is much shorter than your suggestion.

Women is even shorter and everybody in the whole world understands it.

It might be somewhat irrational, but I prefer the fixed-cost-for-unlimited-use model, as it makes the cost of looking at a new thing zero. If I have to pay per use, I'll be discouraged from exploring new content I might like or might not and will look at things similar to what I already see.

It seems more like a classic case of refactoring except that the original infrastructure is paper-based, in which case the ideal digital redesign would be one that mimics the paper-based one precisely so that "regression testing" can be performed and components can be swapped in piecewise. Once enough components are digitized, the system as a whole can begin to be molded into more effective forms. This would have to be the plan at the outset, since it would require preserving enough flexibility.

The 1 child policy is probably a big issue but IP theft is partly how the US industrialized. The textile mills of the North that kicked off industrialization in the US was based off of IP stolen from Britain. In fact, many of the practices that the Chinese are using were also used by the Americans: smuggling plans, hiring key employees, tariffs, etc.

> Excluding someone from a domestic violence shelter isn't just a way of thinking about something. Imprisoning people more likely to be raped with people more likely to rape them isn't just a way of thinking about something.

True, but the relevance is not obvious because these aren’t problems caused by so called TERFs.

It’s also not true that censoring JK Rowling is required as part of solving them, either.

> Cis and trans are opposites by definition. They existed long before they were applied to gender.

Does that mean that you think that cisgender women are not in the same category as transgender women?

I know HN prefers not to discuss site misbehavior, but since there is already is a thread...

This site had it all. I think I had something like 4 or 5 overlaying popups/infocards, plus ads. When I tried to scroll it redirected me to the next page, and then it hijacked the back button on top of that.

Revisited to count the garbage:
Donation beg, cookies, sticky ad on the bottom, "Add to home screen", "install our app", notification bell button. White space in the content area, with an ad underneath. No content visible at all.

I get that you're complaining about 'liberal' media downplaying disorderly and often dangerous events such as riots to suit a political agenda, but the converse is also true; if one relies on 'conservative' media then you'd think many major American cities are post-apocalyptic smoking holes in the ground.
This is such a great example of how people that know math(s) really struggle to explain things to people who don't, because they struggle to realise how much lingo they are using.

The first point explains something as basic as absolute and relative errors. Great.

1 page down (s)he's casually thrown in function notation with R representing the real numbers with no explanation. Anyone who isn't familiar with this notation is immediately intimidated. But I'd wager almost anyone who is familiar with it didn't need to read the page before it. But also, I think it's just unnecessary to be this specific in the first place, if you're trying to quickly explain concepts.

It's actually a huge problem in maths and even Wikipedia (I feel) is pretty guilty of this.

If you take a (relatively) key mathematical concept, such as the Taylor series, then the opening gambit is completely incomprehensible to anyone who isn't already knowledgeable in maths: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_series

This, to me, seems in huge contrast with other scientific fields. Medicine wikipedia, for example, caters towards the "average reader" first, and doctors later. This is entirely appropriate for an encyclopedia. For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AV_nodal_reentrant_tachycardia...
The predictions that came from the alarmists turned out to be false - which makes me think there is an ulterior motive behind NN we are not being told about.
IIRC my issue with MacPorts was that it insisted on recompiling the world from its ecosystem as dependencies because it kept everything super-stable, whereas brew would attempt to use system ones if they were viable. It was more or less FreeBSD Ports vs. Debian apt-get as the model at that point, and MacPorts was (predictably) FreeBSD-like.

Over time I'm not sure brew is any better now, though. I have unlinked versions of gcc, python, etc., etc. under /usr/local that are there just to handle brew packages that listed them as pinned dependencies. It's nice that brew doesn't expose them to CLI unless I want it to do so, but it's not less complex.

Assuming MacPorts has a good "bottle" type concept of precompiled packages now too (haven't looked for years) it's probably about the same as brew now, just more stable. If they still compile from source every time a la BSD, that would be my main sticking point.
