People who are used to it are mostly power users generating content for reddit and their subs. It's absolutely reddits right to ignore their preferences but also at their peril.

Reddit is precariously close to doing a 'Digg'.

Excellent!

I am not a Go programmer, so I am not your target audience, but I have written a book, so I understand the work.

Thanks so much!
Been a few years since I’ve used Gnome, I hadn’t realized they’d pivoted so much to following MacOS.

It looks like they’ve taken a lot of the best parts of MacOS and built something really nice atop it.
Grand Parent?
I'm sure he could just connect directly to the database if he wanted to. At some point people have enough access to systems to bypass any security checks put in place.
You need to get recalibrated. 25% of the people of HK were involved in protests in some form or the other.

Boogaloo Boys do not consist of 80 million US citizens. They're a fringe group trying to be a militia. HK citizens were violent because their voices were not heard, they're not a militia, nor are they fighting to oppress and upend democracy, they're fighting for the exact opposite.
I guess my point is that they're mostly smaller, family owned farms. That means the giant scale stuff could still come along and make things worse.

You used to be able to stick a global menu bar up there in GNOME 2, similar to the one on macOS. I switched to Plasma because you can still do that.
Perhaps it would be fairer to say we have a pantheon and each of our Gods a different priesthood studying different scriptures, or different focuses of the same scriptures.

The Medicine Men, the Beancounters, the IT Department, the Lawmen, the Brokers and all the other professions which act as a transactional cost for doing business, who communicate primarily via standardized forms, and who try to keep evil specters from haunting you.
That was in the context of parents point of Apple / Samsung or Intel / Nvidia and AMD.

If you have no direct competition with them then of course you can Fab with Samsung.
I believe the non-RTX (important, confusing with nvidia, as usual) 3060 has 12 GB of ram, which makes it a nice buy for many ML tasks.

The HK government is in no way any semblance of democratically elected. The majority power in all branches of government lies with Beijing appointees.
That is blended across multiple providers due to my setup, but my AT&T account alone allows up to 1TB/month.

The_donald wasn't white supremacist. When they moved to their own site they clamped down on that garbage pretty hard. I've seen anti-black or anti-jewish posts heavily downvoted with swathes of negative comments. I don't support everything they do, but empirically, that seems pretty out of character for a white supremacist forum

Do we know for the a fact that those tools exist? I work on a website that has a database backend. It is trivially for me to go into the database and make any edits I want. How do we know that he doesn't have that kind of database access?
Very interesting idea!
in a perfect world, we'd have neither inflation or deflation, as we'd be able to perfectly predict what friction is needed with every transaction to keep the world in balance. but because that's practically impossible and because we have only one or two coarse knobs on the economy, we've settled on a relatively high inflationary policy being better than any deflationary one.

i'd conjecture that we could increase the number of economic friction knobs appropriately to easily get the real inflation rate under 1%, but we don't because that would lessen the advantage the already moneyed and their political appendages have with the current system.

> Stallman has called for the killing of babies with Down Syndrome.

I've been in OSS for decades. I've actually argued with RMS personally on certain subject (he called me evil, which I disagree with, but that's not the point). I've read a lot of his writings and a lot of writings about him. I never heard about this until today. I have no idea what RMS actually said on the subject (you didn't provide a quote, as it usually happens) but whatever he said, it's clearly wasn't something very important among all his body of work, if mostly nobody heard or cared about this so far.

In fact, I can't bring myself to care about RMS's views on the subject right now - even if your most uncharitable interpretation is completely correct (I am 99% sure it's not, but even in unlikely case it is) it's completely immaterial. RMS has never been and never will be in a position that such an opinion would matter for anything, he has never killed any babies and has never contributed or influenced anything that mattered in this area. He did, however, contributed a lot and mattered a lot in other areas.

One of the most idiotic and toxic features of cancel culture is reducing the immense complexity of the person's life to one - almost always distorted and misinterpreted - statement and focusing on it as if it were the only point ever. There's no "someone like that". "Someone like that" is a bullshit - no one is "like that", and "like that" is an insanely awful criteria to guide your actions. Literally everybody has done something in their life some people may not like. One can disagree with somebody on some subject and still agree with them on other subjects. That's how human society works. People can not be reduced to a single "like that", and shouldn't be. Get out of Twitter and purge it out of your system, for the benefit of yourself and humanity.
Very interesting idea! Would love to try it out for myself.
Sure - there's a lot that can be done there; but that will also make it faster on L5 :)
>But zig? No one uses zig for anything serious.

There's at least one company using zig for embedded software, despite its pre-release status, because it's just so much easier to work with than C.

It has a lot of potential. You're not wrong that, at the moment, it's most just potential. But people have noticed, and I think once it does finally stabilize in a year or two, it's going to be a huge for embedded type programming and system libraries that would otherwise be C. The value propositions is pretty huge for those use cases especially.
Your question is valid (and I have the same one) but this is about as uncharitable a thing to say as you can, especially without providing evidence/examples:

> I guess they want to obfuscate as much as possible and dumb things down for users like they have been doing for close to a decade.

The Gnome project has done an enormous amount to push the open source and free desktop forward. The least we can do is not impute sinister motives to them. What do they stand to gain from "obfuscat[ing]" their version number when their code is all open source?
They might just think you have a lisp.
You are assuming that the corresponding figureheads would have a real power, they are not.

Do you think it is a coincidence that actors, reality tv stars elected to the highest political seats? A monkey would perform as well if not better.
The content of Reddit comments have been used in legal proceedings. It's a huge deal that the CEO has edit permissions in the main Reddit site database, they simply shouldn't have that access at all.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's a scholar's opinion on the application of the law, not the law. What courts make of it, and how they develop the law over time, cannot be concluded at this point.

And it goes on to say, a few lines below what you quoted:

If someone refused to use a preferred pronoun — and it was determined to constitute discrimination or harassment — could that potentially result in jail time?

It is possible, Brown says, through a process that would start with a complaint and progress to a proceeding before a human rights tribunal. If the tribunal rules that harassment or discrimination took place, there would typically be an order for monetary and non-monetary remedies. A non-monetary remedy may include sensitivity training, issuing an apology, or even a publication ban, he says.

If the person refused to comply with the tribunal's order, this would result in a contempt proceeding being sent to the Divisional or Federal Court, Brown says. The court could then potentially send a person to jail “until they purge the contempt,” he says.

“The path to prison is not straightforward. It’s not easy. But, it’s there. It’s been used before in breach of tribunal orders.”
Oh no you actually looked at it??!

D has three fully functional compilers on Linux, and is probably in better shape than python, rust, even c++ in that regard.
Tangentially, not directly. Algorithms become different beasts when implemented on real-world hardware.

I bought an iPad Air 4+Apple Pencil 2 recently, primarily for aviation purposes to use as an "Electronic Flight Bag".

However I have since then found it to be extremely versatile. Granted I do not use it for coding or accessing SSH. I use it for reading ebooks, taking notes and some light browsing. Particularly the note-taking is an extremely pleasant experience with the Apple Pencil.

I had an Android tablet before (granted it was a relatively low-end Samsung one) and it wasn't nearly as useful. I used it just for flying and even that was a hassle.
They also don't allow you to find posts that are beyond the last 1000 or so for that subreddit. Everything beyond that point gets memory holed. They've recreated the retention problem that usenet.

If you want to find older posts you have to use a search engine.
Most isn't all, and I would make the case for an exception here... at least in ideal terms. The HK protests had a vanguard element that qualifies as "evidence of some interesting new phenomenon." This film captures some of that.

That said, HN (like most social media) doesn't handle this kind of content very well... in practical terms. Might be best to go with a practical "do what you can do well" approach and avoid topics you can't do well.

Maybe a "no comments" post type for topics like this?
What Employers Can Do About Employee Mental Health
We have them on Long Island. In fact, a nesting pair has been in a nearby town for a few years. They have their own Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/baldeaglesofcenterportNY

Centerport is a fairly well-off community, so they have some powerful allies (and you see some expen$ive camera gear).

Their call is...unimpressive. I call it "The call of the sick gull."

The classic "eagle" call is actually a redtail (we have them, too).
> the biggest culture gap I keep and that probably won't ever go away is how it's somewhat accepted here that "letting rich kids cheat/buy their way into Ivy League is not that bad, and look it pays for a new cafeteria".

There's a percentage of admitted students at which it's interesting to admit based on donations. Especially if one large donation can make need-blind admission possible for N students. But do it too much and you'll become a school that's known as "pay to win".

> (our "preparatory classes" system also has similar high competitiveness/high pressure characteristics, to prepare for a few deciding exams

There's also a third hidden option. The Polytechnique in Montreal is notorious for this: admit too much, collect tuition and then have students transfer out when they can't handle the workload.
You're missing the point. No one is saying that they're not legally allowed to do it. The issue here is that it's possible, and that it was done at least once.
Looks very good! Thanks for providing it free.
Quantum Computing ethics and hype: the call is coming from inside the house
I also want them to just make it so I can right click and create a new empty file. Linux is file based right? If I right click on a opened folder I want to create a file.
Agreed 100%. As soon as the dialog opens, I usually just want to start typing the file name to save and then press enter to save.

The workaround is that I must remember to hit Alt+N to focus on the filename box before typing. Usually I forget though.
Looks like the VRAM uses a BGA package with quite a lot of contacts. I'm surprised they got 8 of these done well enough, by hand with a heat gun, to work.

So your enemy doesn't know what you have. Same as it has always been? In areas where the private sector cannot profit outside selling to the military (e.g. missiles/radar), then obviously the government is ahead because nobody else is really working on them. But perhaps you've watched too many sci-fi movies. We don't have a SHIELD with flying aircraft carriers.

There is nothing to correlate unless the connection is actually re-used in private mode. Merely leaving an unused connection open doesn't change much of anything.

I disagree. Have you ever met one person with that condition?

The ones I've met, are happier than 99% of the people I know.
> We can only hope that will be its downfall.

Be careful what you wish for. Toppling a horrible government does not always solve problems. I'm not saying we should just throw the oppressed under the bus to get stability, but an actual downfall of CCP would probably be like Saddam Hussein only exponentially worse.

Yes, and him being in Disney movie earning money for Disney would only tarnish his image.

> why would reddit hire a 23 year old admin whose greatest accomplishment is being forced out of politics due to her connections to multiple pedophiles?

Hiring trans people gets you a lot of Virtue Credits. The incentives are clearly there.

It’s ridiculous, of course. And I say this as a trans person.
What? This makes no sense. If you refuse to hire someone because of their (alleged, I have no idea) implicit support for pedophilia, it has nothing to do with refusing to hire someone because of their gender.

The fact that someone could pretend you aren't hiring them because of their gender is moot when you can simply point to the real reason you're not hiring them.

If I'm faced with the question of whether to hire an unrepentant serial killer, I'm not going to let their gender inform my decision. That's not "balance" in any way.
Familiar music can be really invigorating for a creative thought walk. In my own personal experience it can help me tune out other distracting stimuli, like people places and things.

In Case of Emergency phone contacts are a really old Facebook meme with no real world use. The ambulance driver can’t unlock your phone to look at your contact list.

On Android as far as I know it varies by manufacturer.

Interestingly, if you take a look at old screenshots of Gnome 2.x, GTK apps have had more "mac like" layout/distribution/whitespace of controls within application windows for a very long time, even if the Gnome itself took more after Win9x in other aspects (like having a taskbar).

By contrast KDE/Qt has always had a stronger Win9x feel through and through.

This modern red gaurd you worry about is built on top of what social media enables, amplifies and rewards.

Two points worth making about "revolutions" built on top of social media -

1. They dont generate outcomes.
We now have 15 years of data on social medias bullshit revolutions that prove it. Best example would be what has happened in Tunisia or what outcomes that Hope and Change guy produced beyond getting himself a job at Netflix.

2. The clueless buffoon class behind social media algos of the last 15 years have finally woken up to their own cluelessness, so the algos are changing. Reward mechanisms are changing. What gets amplified is changing. Who gets thrown off the network is evolving. And even though all these changes are still in the realm of half baked shit, one thing they ensure is the type of "revolutions" and "revolutionaries" propped up over the last 15 year wont resemble what gets propped up in the next 15.

So I wouldnt loose too much sleep. Especially in Canada.
Pointing out noise like you just thought you did.

How'd you build the Web site — a package of some sort, or did you roll your own CSS? I've been working on a law-related book that I plan to post; I like the look of your site.

(I suppose it's too much to hope for that you created this with Emacs and org-mode — which is what I'm writing my book in — together with a nifty CSS package ....)
The fact that Reddit comments are admissible in a court sounds insane to me. I can't believe people actually take Reddit that seriously. It's like taking preschoolers yelling at each other seriously, but with anonymity thrown in. The fact that adults can take it seriously enough to use it in court cases is crazy.
While the site itself is pretty terrible, kiwifarms has a well written up history with evidence to back it up.
"You can in general never retroactively change a license, so their usage back then was certainly valid."

No, it wasn't. It was reasonable, but not valid.

They were using copyrighted code without permission from the copyright holder, relying on a false claim. The false claim gave them no right to use the copyrighted code, and will not protect them if the copyright holder sues them. However the fact that they were acting in good faith and had no idea is likely to help them when it comes to damages. And furthermore if they got sued, then they would have the right to sue the author of the gem whose false claim got them in trouble.

If the original author wanted to claim damages under GPL from Rails, he would have to do so via the gem's author. And even then: What damages?

I have no idea why you think that the copyright holder would have to go to the gem's author to sue about a copyright violation. Furthermore damages are not the only thing you can sue for. See https://www.lib.purdue.edu/uco/CopyrightBasics/penalties.htm... for a list. That statutory minimum of $200 per infringement can add up really fast when you're generating copies electronically.

No, it's a common practice at this particular event. If it's been going for decades and no one has complained why should this one couple come in and try to impose their will on the community, especially with the overtones of racism/gentrification? Old Austin is disappearing pretty rapidly on the East side I can understand why they (the community) pushes back. Note everyone wants white picket fences and perfectly sculpted lawns.

> The evidence we found is inconclusive in showing if TikTok takes down posts (post censorship) unfavorable to the Chinese government. We found that TikTok contains a code module to handle a special class of server-returned search responses. If the server decides to restrict a search result, it will return a response with zero result item, and indicate the reason for restriction in a special “search_nil_info” field. The client code module contains four predefined reasons for restriction: “hate speech,” “limit,” “sensitive,” and “suicide prevention.” The server also sometimes returned reasons that were not predefined; however, we were unable to make sense of their meanings.
