No we wouldn't. Running a VPN service is not a endeavor issue, it's a legal endeavor. Most VPN providers have a bigger legal department than tech department.

I know for a fact a prominent VPN providers had all it's tech stack (+3k servers all over the world) managed by a single guy.

I can perhaps see how he could be accused of misogyny but how is RMS been ableist or transphobic? Is the former supposed to be some stretch about GNU software accessibility or something?
I was approaching 3000 films on criticker back in college when I realized, that I would never be able to begin to approach watching all of the films that I wanted to. Sort of like, the more you know the more you know you don't know. I ended up deleting all of my tracking of films, books (well now I'm tracking my books again for insurance purposes) etc and no longer worry about seeing all the important films.
In JS functions are objects, yeah, most frontend functional languages still require some amount of FFI so we haven’t totally lost touch with reality. One could make the argument that JS was one of the first truly mainstream languages with significant FP features, first-class functions, lambdas, and closures, so why the hell are there people out there modeling everything in objects? JS is a multi-paradigm language, my feeling is as long as you're meeting the needs of the business and users, the paradigm you use should really be up to the engineers.

I’m sure there are people who do functional programming who fit your description and I'm sure I would also find them quite annoying, but as far as the community goes, I believe them to be on the fringes. I don't see them at FP conferences, meet-ups, or in chatrooms. Many of us are motivated by the same reasons you stated, we want code and test suites that we find straightforward and easy to maintain.

I'm not sure how fashionable these languages really are, even talking to experienced engineers, when I say I prefer to work in Haskell, often they've never heard of it and think I've said "Pascal".
What is incorrect about my reasoning?
Moving to Optimism L2 will remove miner advantage.

Edit: of course, Optimism "Chain Organizers" can front-run, but if they will be run by Uniswap themselves, then they have no incentive to ruin their own product.
I was amused and liked your design. And now I also have a website to send people when they ask me if I've heard of NFT startups. ;)
I bought some shares in our local coop when they were building a new store to move into. Each share gives 3% interest with no expiration and I can sell it back if I want.
The issue is with the app description. Apple has no objection to the functionality, just making the functionality so obvious.
> Why isn't Saudi Arabia afraid of US sanctions?

Because of lots of historical precedent that the US values it's relationship with SA over any principled objection to bad behavior on the part of SA? Obviously there are lines that couldn't be crossed, but SA believes this murder wasn't one of them.
Oh wow have been wanting/needing this for a while , thanks for your work!
I don't believe there is anything fundamentally preventing any language from running on any architecture other than "we haven't gotten around to it yet". Can't you emulate any Turing machine inside of any other Turing machine? I'd guess you could run the latest version of Python on anything more advanced than a abacus if you had a couple of lifetimes to waste on the project.
The other avenue is adding a Rust frontend to GCC

Seems like a browser could treat the scenario when a user types an IP address differently from a normal domain name resolution (eg even just changing the messaging to be less scary).

If you're actually using domain names on your LAN maybe you just have to bite the bullet and sign certificates too. You don't need internet access to have a properly signed certificate.
I was just reading about the future space missions [0] to the outer solar system already planned within the next couple of decades.

"Whether it’s Dragonfly going to Titan, Clipper going to Europa, hopefully a lander going to Europa, hopefully a mission that’ll fly through the plumes of Enceladus, exo-planets going gangbusters, SETI hopefully taking on a broader and broader search and surveying those exo-planets. Within the next few decades we could potentially answer this primordial, age old question of, “Are we alone?” And that’s gonna revolutionize biology. It’s gonna revolutionize how we think about our place in the universe. And so for all of the pains and agony of trying to operate on these time scales, we do live in a beautiful time where we might transform the universe in which we live into a biological universe."

Along with the commercialization of space travel, I'd say there is a sufficiently large part of this universe we are yet to "touch" but soon will be able to.

I for one am tremendously excited about the future.

I see the paradox of tolerance come up from time to time, and often with links to Wikipedia, usually implying that intolerance should be suppressed. A perusal of the literature around the topic suggests that moral philosophical consensus is that intolerance should, in fact, be tolerated except in cases of imminent danger to the tolerant society or individuals in it.

(Note: I cannot tell from your post where you fall on this point. This is a more general response on the paradox of tolerance as I typically see it in this sort of context.)

From the section of Popper in the Wikipedia article:

> In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be most unwise.

Rather, he claims that:

> we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary...

Thus, tolerance of intolerance is the default, with suppression of intolerance reserved as a last resort.

From the article (original emphasis):

> Thus, in context, Popper's acquiescence to suppression when all else has failed

> Thomas Jefferson had already addressed the notion of a tolerant society in his first inaugural speech, concerning those who might destabilise the United States and its unity, saying, "let them stand undisturbed as monuments of the safety with which error of opinion may be tolerated where reason is left free to combat it."

Another moral philosopher, Rawls, agrees that tolerance should be the default, and suppression of intolerance used only as a last resort (emphasis mine):

> In 1971, philosopher John Rawls concluded in A Theory of Justice that a just society must tolerate the intolerant ... Rawls qualifies this with the assertion that under extraordinary circumstances in which constitutional safeguards do not suffice to ensure the security of the tolerant and the institutions of liberty, tolerant society has a reasonable right of self-preservation against acts of intolerance ....

More Rawls:

> This should be done, however, only to preserve equal liberty – i.e., the liberties of the intolerant should be limited only insofar as they demonstrably limit the liberties of others: "While an intolerant sect does not itself have title to complain of intolerance, its freedom should be restricted only when the tolerant sincerely and with reason believe that their own security and that of the institutions of liberty are in danger."

In the Wikipedia article, there are several examples of people calling out the hypocrisy of tolerating intolerant viewpoints, but there are no claims that the default stance against intolerance in a tolerant society should be suppression.

EDIT: added a missing subordinate clause to clarify the first paragraph.
Well, in that case your statement of "If only people were so excited about making OpenSSL not a flaming hot bag of shit" is severely misplaced. I have no influence over Linux governance. 99.9999% of us out there don't have that influence. So what was your point exactly?

Rants are fine and we all do them but I will strongly disagree with any responsibility or guilt transferred to me because I am excited about Rust and not about OpenSSL. As you yourself pointed out, alternatives exist but aren't adopted so the problem is political and not technical. Right?

> The rest of your statement is just making my point for me.

Not sure what you mean but okay. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I suggest you defend that position instead of stating it so boldly and asking us to accept your reasoning.
> It will probably take time for the ecosystem around this to mature

If the liquidity improvements are really significant in practice, I guess the whole transition will happen very fast
I quit all social media in 2015, and reached similar conclusions to those of others.

One thing I realized that doesn't get talked about much is that I was watering lots of dead flowers. It turned out that my posts on Twitter and Instagram were prompting others to interact with me. Without those regular prompts, I never again heard anything from those who used to comment on my posts. Without me posting first, in six years no one has reached out to find out what I've been up to or if I were even alive.
Buy non apple kit then... same old boring story.
I'm using self signed cert on iOS/macOS and it works just fine with Safari. Safari is messed up in other ways with TLS. Like it re-uses HTTP2 connections when making requests for a different Host when it's running on the same IP address as the host it connected to previously, which completely breaks client certificate selection and unless you recompile nginx with custom patches, it also doesn't work with nginx, because SNI and actual Host header differ, which nginx doesn't like by default.
I did this math recently for a real estate investment. We're in a pretty hot market, but not growing at anywhere near the pace of Atlanta or Austin. Suffice it to say that if the property appreciates at merely the inflation rate, it will have the same return as a typical index fund, with a better tax disposition.
Pangolin is basically a uni fork, on a different network.

Very melodramatic marketing tactic from protonvpn here.

Honestly this is something that somebody like fidelity/other banks are going to solve and push coinbase out.

A friend is going through the following scenario (and reached out to me for help): they have over half a million dollars sitting in a coinbase account, but coinbase has lost the link between their coinbase account and their bank account.

What this means is that they can't get their substantial amount of money off of coinbase and into their bank.

In some banks, if you have that amount of money, you have a 24/7 number you can call where somebody will greet you by name and solve whatever problem you have immediately.

On coinbase: post on reddit, annoy them on twitter, and try to navigate their knowledge base until you get an answer.

Completely terrifying IMO.

Here's my actual prediction: something that I think still includes coinbase in the process:

Coinbase just becomes coinbase custody. My bank account now has a "cryptocurrencies" tab, with deposit and withdraw addresses. This all happened with debit cards, and it's going to happen with cryptos now as well. I'm still bullish on coinbase, but coinbase becomes visa. I never interact with them directly.

There's a lot going on in this article. The introduction alone provides everything you need to know about the tone used throughout the text.

Instead of listing everything, I prefer to refer to this piece that provides helpful references on how to cover stories about transgender people while remaining neutral on the subject: https://www.glaad.org/reference/covering-trans-community.

You will quickly notice that the text goes out of its way to deliberately break GLAAD's Media Reference Guide and others like it.
The reason behind high-end is because it takes additional developer hours to support old computers.

Linux kernel does support all for free, but we want the booting, and the experience to be smooth. So we'll not use any code from Linux Kernel that slows the computer unless its absolutely needed by that small set of people.

The goal here is to make an opensource operating system that doesn't suck the way even ElementaryOS does. The battery life is bad unless you can spend 2 weeks optimizing every part of the kernel and OS. The experience is bad, lots of bugs spread around the distro.
I've always thought reversing the order makes sense.
One of the big selling points of the original uniswap was that everything was open source as opposed to bancor. I am disappointed by this.
In comparison to calls, texts/messages also bring the tangible benefit of giving more space for one to compose and better conduct their thoughts. This is true even when the people involved are actively messaging each other — it's fine to delay a message for a few minutes whereas in a call there's constant pressure to speak to avoid awkward silence and keep the conversation flowing.

Of course people don't always capitalize fully on this but I think it's a major reason why messaging has come to be preferred over calls.
Don't just think about millenials and older, consider younger M's and zoomers. These people have grown up (in the developed world) with constant always-on connectivity. Parents want their kids to be connected for safety reasons. Schools don't want to pay for paper books so they get every kid to have a laptop or tablet. In university, you cannot operate without a laptop, and I doubt it would be easy to work without a cell phone.

I agree it's not very healthy, and I agree many people don't understand. I personally am working on using "do not disturb" a lot more on my phone, so that only calls will get through in real-time. That said, to say "1999 was only 20 years ago" really doesn't capture _how much has changed_ in those 20 years.
And in most cases it isn't GC which is the problem, but the program doing too many heap allocations. Cutting heap allocations down improves the speed of most programs, with or without GC.
in other words no space for mysteries here.
> The Mossad agents in question were imprisoned,

I mean, they were all released within 18 months. And France is definitely an ally of SA, and the third largest seller of weaponry to SA after US & UK.
Another advantage, when compared with C, is the package/dependency management and build tooling which makes compiling for targeted architectures a little easier
> I’m a senior engineer who is expected to be a tech lead for my team and work on cross functional projects.

Shouldn't the title then be "Is it bad that I don't want to be a tech lead?"?

I think that there is a distinction between a tech lead and a senior engineer. As a tech lead you have more responsibility for the success of a given project while as a senior engineer you're (mostly) responsible for your own contributions.

So is it bad if you don't want to be a senior engineeer? Yes, because it's a very natural progression from being a non-senior engineer. It would almost be like saying that you don't want to be good at your job.

Is it bad if you don't want to be a tech lead? Not at all, it's a different job, requires a different skillset and you should absolutely be able to turn it down if it isn't for you.
I miss my iPhone 6. I thought the SE would fill it's shoes, but the lack of headphone jack makes me constantly regretful. I'm shocked by how many people tell me to "Just put a new stereo in your car" or "Upgrade to a Bluetooth receiver" or "Buy new headphones" or "Just carry that shitty adapter around with you all the time..." Not only should I spend $600 on my phone, but I should also apparently upgrade every single audio device that I own so that smart phone makers can save $1 on each phone they sell.
You can host on IPFS and there would be no way to stop the service. Just the routing to it perhaps. But you can go a step further and use a ENS domain and point it to your IPFS site. Truly permisionless and decentralized.
Yes, but less expensive and maybe potentially free. A simple description would be an open-source MacOS meant only for developers.
"Watering dead flowers"

I mentioned in another comment just one counter example: we cannot go back to before t=0 when the universe was created. There is knowledge beyond the realm of space and time which we have no access to.
Capital creates a power dynamic when it starts to consolidate. The newcomers then change from innovation to defence as to maintain their wealth.

Apple isn’t a manufacturer of tech for political unrests.

They follow protocols to allow or block apps on their App Store, it’s a private company.

Also the wording claiming that proton aims to help people “challenge governments” may imply situations well beyond the Myanmar crisis.
What about lesbians who are concerned that some AMAB folks in their community might simply objectify them sexually, in a way that others would be a lot less likely to? Doesn't that seem like a good reason to be a bit warier when interacting with some group of people?

No, it's being patchily enforced sitewide.
Lots of undefined acronyms in there.
I definitely agree, but thinking about it I wonder if it was simply to get a "gut reaction" to the graphic - that things are getting better and we are reaching the limit of what is possible (in the context of matrix multiplication).

It's easier to get that feeling at a glance when the graphic is increasing left-to-right. With normal conventions the graphic would be decreasing. Which of course, that's what it is doing (and the goal). But the "gut reaction" to a decreasing graph is "things are doing worse". The gut reaction to graph increasing is "things are doing better".

I could be completely off-base, but that's the only reason I can think of to eschew normal axis conventions.
ECC is totally different than RSA principles discussed here.
Yes it's due to the interest rate, which is loosely connected to inflation. But you're right, even with no inflation, you'd discount by future interest rates, leading to a finite number.
Static Site Comments: A Jamstack How-To
I AM against it, because it puts more centralized censorship power in the hands of the certificate authority.

Also, it completely cuts out "legacy" devices, basically anything more than 5 years old.

The Web is once again splitting into AOLized mainstream and "indie underground" that you have to make an effort to access.
oh it's by that Cat; Caterpillar, the one that does construction machinery. Out of curiosity, what's the battery tech? LiFePO? LTO?

I'd imagine heat tolerance and impact resilience would be more important than slimness and lightweight for these devices if they're intended to be used like say, at a foundry.
And you could even sign the announcement with one of Satoshi's wallet keys.
Lots of Open Source Initiative.

Can anyone explain to me what the OSI even does and why they seem to have the time to protest RMS?

From their website:

>For over 20 years the Open Source Initiative (OSI) has worked to raise awareness and adoption of open source software, and build bridges between open source communities of practice.

So they build bridges? That's a great goal.

So what bridge are they building here? Seems more like they are starting a fight. That seems against their stated mission.
It is true that Rust supports a subset of the architectures LLVM supports, but to be honest, I am not sure if "many" is the right adjective. I mean that in a literal sense, I don't have a good handle on the list. For Rust, the list is https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support.htm..., but I'm not sure if there's such a list for LLVM, other than looking at something like https://llvm.org/doxygen/Triple_8h_source.html and figuring it out?
One can either have a organization that includes all and thus gives the most minimal set of rights all agree upon to the organization - or make a more exclusive club with strict entrance requirements and then a more powerful commitment to the values of that club.
The UN is beyond salvage, but its never to late to create a "democratic, rule of law abiding, humanitarian-values upholding" club, and keep it exclusive to only those natural allies.
Yeah with DEXs and more traditional banks starting to offer crypto on/off ramps don't see coinbase being that essential anymore.
FWIW this person is also banned from the Svelte github and the Svelte discord for similar behaviour.

How is that relevant to the "Open Sourcing" of the vaccine?

In my eyes the fact that so much of vaccine production is in private hands is a classic example of "privatising profits" because everyone paid for the research with their taxes.

Gates is a super billionare only looking out for his bank account, through the good old "philantrophy PR" scheme. He is actively doing class warfare by close sourcing vaccines. Completely in line with the rest of his endeavours.
Have you tried it on a recently released high end Laptop? Not Alienware level but something like the new Dell XPS 15?
It's interesting that you think that another Mastodon instance admin has any control of what thousands of people are "allowed to read". Your website is still online, isn't it?

You didn't get censored, you got disciplined for your behavior on a network you don't own. If the members of the instance that blocked you want to see your content, they can visit your instance directly. If they want to interact with you they can join another instance, or create their own.

Your free speech ends where mine begins online. Act however you want on your own server, but don't play victim when others decide that they don't wish to accommodate you.

MAJOR EDIT:

Looks like literally hundreds of instances have you suspended, and it is very justified.

The value add of workflow management and coordination beyond build-centric task automation makes sense. Excited for what it sounds like you guys have up your sleeves on the web development side also.

It's for this reason that I do online banking and investing on my personal laptop. Seeing as how I pretty much open both apps twice a month max, I have no need to install the mobile app.

I don't use Google/Samsung Pay either. They literally do the same thing as the credit + debit card in my wallet. But their advertisements would have you believe they've somehow reinvented consumer finance.
