Boston is certainly in a better position than a lot of the country. However, even in Boston, being able to be car-free is not always feasible for lower-income folks, especially as development relentlessly moves forward.

As an example: the neighborhood I've lived in for a decade used to be a relatively low-income neighborhood. Rents were low in the old buildings, most folks walked to their jobs in the medical area, and there was a cheap Shaws grocery store for food, as well as several fast food places and family-run storefronts. Public transit (light rail, buses, and commuter rail) was accessible close by.

Then a development company bought nearly all of the parcels along the main road and built a wall of mid-to-high-rises. Accordingly, all rent in the area went way up, forcing most of the lower-income folks out of even the older, shittier tenement buildings. A Target went in, and the Shaws rebranded as the more expensive Star Market (and will soon close so they can build a new Whole-Foods-type expensive megastore). All of the small storefronts closed, and now the area is nearly entirely high-end shopping outlets and expensive gastro-restaurants. They shut down the bus lines running through the neighborhood because all the rich people who moved in have cars (Porsches and Lambos now rev through the neighborhood at all hours) and bus ridership was down.

Where did all of the folks -- and their families -- previously able to afford the area go? To areas of Boston where the rent is still cheap. Many of these places are nowhere near good public transit (e.g. if someone moved from this area of Boston to Dorchester, then took transit to their same job, it would require 3-4 transfers on packed buses and trains). So now these people are forced to get a car as well.

The worst part of all of this is: who wins here? Not the people forced to leave their neighborhood, not the people who suddenly need to buy a car, not the people who can no longer afford to run a restaurant in the area... not even the rich people living in the expensive high-rises (or not living in -- many are vacant "investments" from overseas). The developers win. They pumped as much money as they could out of the neighborhood, and then moved on to their next target, leaving a less livable city in their wake.
Not when I can buy an ICE and operate for cheaper - note the nearest "charge station" to me is 30+ miles away and then the next nearest is 100+ miles beyond that.

The drop in diesel and gasoline prices recently only cements the value of an ICE vehicle.
BTW that's true of income tax but not necessarily true of sales tax. Rules vary across the country but I've read about people getting in trouble for not remitting provincial sales taxes on garage sales.

(There's no GST/HST issues since (a) "used goods" are generally exempt, and (b) almost everyone running a garage sale falls under the "small supplier" rules < $30k/year.)
I see nothing about letter bombs or death threats.
This is the way to do it.

NAT is not really security and UPnP doesn't really do much to prevent malicious software already on your network from doing malicious things except perhaps hosting itself on your WAN to spread further.

What disabling it does help is prevent improperly configured or flawed devices from accidentally exposing themselves to your WAN. IOT devices? Put them on a network with no UPnP. Workstations and video game consoles with up-to-date patches? UPnP is probably fine.
> It's not like it "switches to even more free": it is presently nonfree.

It's free for any use-case I'm concerned with. I can modify the source, self-host it, and run thousands of nodes through it if I want. All I can't do is take their work, slap my name on it, and sell it.

If that was your intent then VPNCloud is even less free. The GPL3 license means you could never host a closed-source version.
These "mathy" objects are about the only unambiguous use case for operator overloading.

Yes. Most other uses for operator overloading are really chains of functions. There's better syntax for that.

I once wrote some overloads for C++ so that you could write

result = fileobject | item | item | item | item;

and then apply either "read" or "write" to "result". This allowed marshalling without writing the item list more than once. Bad idea.

Python is notorious for problems that stem from combining operator overloading and implicit conversions. "+" is arithmetic for some types and concatenation for others.

[1,2,3] + [4,5,6]

is

[1,2,3,4,5,6]

which you might not expect. If you add arrays from numpy, those add arithmetically. You can add a numpy array to a built-in array. Trouble comes when you pass a numpy array to a function that expects a built-in array, and the wrong semantics of "+" are applied.

Rust has operator overloading without implicit conversions. That avoids such ambiguities, at the cost of requiring many explicit conversions.

In many cases, the court requires it goes to auction to demonstrate it was sold "at market value". Lenders don't really like to repossess cars - we are in the business of putting people IN to cars, not taking them OUT.
I think the typechecking here should be possible for rust in the sense that it's just a value of a known type (this isn't like C++ hacks).

Both of your examples hold for C, and for the same reasons. For example trying to take the address of `errno` is UB in C as implementations are free to implement it as a macro (and almost all do).

This is not a reasonable solution for most people, it requires intimate knowledge of the games you play (which ports they use), a static IP for your console and no more than one player/console per household.

Heaven forbid you have a PC game and a Xbox game that have conflicting ports.

And, I just have to say: you open arbitrary ports to your game console from the internet and talk about security.

When calling shell from bash (to use pipes etc.), I found it useful to pass variables via the environment, like this:

safe_call('command1 -- "$bar" | command2 --baz="$baz" | command3 > "$output_file"', bar=bar, baz=baz, output_file=output_file)
I'm mediocre at poker but generally turn a profit in casino poker rooms. The trick is to never go up against the sharks unless you've got the nuts (for those not familiar, "the nuts" is a poker term that means the best possible hand on the table)

At the same time, Safari updates plenty of times, just because they don't shout about it doesn't mean it's not happening. Same goes for the backing engines (including Blink and V8 in Chromium and derivatives like CEF and node; but also WebKit and the likes).

The web would be better if it wasn't dominated by a very small set of platforms. Adding 'a few more browsers' on a single operating system hardly helps.

Right now, the 'web' isn't much more aside from Google, Facebook and a few commercial offerings like the various eCommerce websites, and they are all accessed on 2, maybe 3 operating system foundations, with perhaps 1 or 2 relevant browser engines. Adding Gecko or Chrome on iOS changes nothing.

FWIW I have never had upnp enabled and I don't recall any cases where it's caused a problem for me. Certainly my wife and I are on videoconferences all day and they work fine. I am completely with you that I can't have network configurations that make the network unusable, confusing, or inconvenient for my family, but are you sure that upnp falls into that category? I'm sure you have different applications than I do, but I think we're pretty normal...
Aren't these two points slightly contradictory?

> the author depends on NAT as a security feature, when it was never designed to be one

> UPnP is a convenience feature, and is disabled in all security focused networks.

uPnP punches holes in a NAT. If you shouldn't be trusting NAT to protect you anyway, why bother disabling a feature that's designed to punch holes in it? Just set up your firewall to protect your network, and it's not an issue.

(I suppose some routers might automatically add a firewall exception when doing uPnP hole punching, but if so that's an issue with those routers, not with the idea of relying on a firewall.)
I agree. The Mac ecosystem has long valued quality, especially when it comes to UI/UX. One of my favorite proprietary software companies is The Omni Group, which has made a lot of very well-done software tools for the Mac, such as OmniGraffle. The company's adherence to Apple's UI guidelines is strict, and its products are wonderful to use. Apple itself has also made excellent software (I'm a longtime macOS user), though I feel that its UI/UX perfectionism has slipped in recent years.

There were similar things at the dawn of the jet age. Someone wrote a paper demonstrating that jet power could not improve over propeller power because radial-flow compressors generated too much drag and axial-flow compressors were too inefficient. What the author of the paper didn't know is that, contemporary to him, it was discovered that shaping each blade of an axial-flow compressor like an airfoil significantly improved efficiency. Thus a "physics problem" became a "manufacturing problem"

I remember uploading a BF3 montage on YouTube some eons ago when it was all the rage, no copyrighted music or anything. I received a DMCA claim by some spanish tv/broadcasting company or something along those lines, totally unrelated to my content.

An expensive phone is about 500-1000€. A cheap EV is in the 20K neighborhood, and the functionality is pretty bad compared to a cheap second-hand utility car (pretty hard to travel outside your city). Even when regulations push prices up, it's still far more economical to buy a cheap gas car than a cheap EV.

Even in Europe there are plenty of countries where many people can't afford an EV. They can afford second-hand ICE cars. So unless there can be a second-hand market of EVs for about 6K without worrying about the battery, and with a similar functionality of a second-hand ICE car, then yes, EVs will be for upper income brackets.

And I'm not even mentioning that most people lives in apartment buildings, and it's very likely that your car sleeps in the street.

I've seen this discussions around here. People won't buy EVs in the near future because they are expensive, have very low range, you have to have a house, or own a flat (because nobody will pay for a charger installation in a rented flat) with garage, etc.

What people is buying is little electric Scooters. Most of them are <500€ and you can charge em everywhere. It makes sense for travelling inside a city. Spending 20K for not being able to go from Santiago to Madrid, doesn't make any sense.
> For example flash loans allow uncollateralized loans for millions of dollars

That's a bad thing, not a good one.
My guess would be that it limits where you can live (park car overnight) but not where you can drive. For example car insurance price is different for different cities - the same could be the case for subprime loan.
It's worse. They typically charge the vehicle price as the down payment, so anything else paid is profit. Every time they repo a car they get this money paid to them again. On top of that, they will lie about the 'buy here pay here' and will sell of your auto loan to a loan shark company, who will then try to add more fees/interest/anti-consumer clauses after the fact.

I dealt with this myself once, and will never do so again. Also, they tried to penalize me for paying early to get out from under them, and refused to send my title until I threatened to sue with all my voice recordings of every phone call. They tried to say I could only pay advance payments, not pay down my principal, and tried to extend my contract length two years after purchasing my loan without my consent or knowledge, despite having a written contract forbidding the car lot from selling my loan.

BHPH model is NOT the same as getting a subprime loan from a bank or credit union. Very few cars are sold via BHPH.

Also, many states require that repossessed cars are sold at auction, and the proceeds go towards the balance owed (aka the poor person who borrowed the money).

Usery laws are complex, and it is difficult to know why the lady in this article got a loan for 20%. That is unfair and I feel bad for her.

> I want them to be front and center, equal to everything else.

That’s fine, and that’s why the function itself will have a return type of `Result<T, E>` for some meaningful return type T and error type E.

Even better, if there’s an error, there is no non-error return value. You can’t accidentally use the zero-valued return half of a tuple (as you can in golang) because it simply isn’t there.

Is the important part of error handling having some copy-pasted stanza repeated everywhere? Or is it enforcing that errors are always handled and semantically-undefined return values are never accidentally passed along in the event of an error?

> But ultimately it's about explicitness, obviousness. `?` is easy to miss, and permits method chaining, the outcome of which is incredibly easy to mispredict.

No, it simply is not. `?` early-aborts the function and returns the result straight away if it’s an error, and unwraps the interior value if not. There is no plausible way for someone to mispredict this behavior, and if there was, it would be no different from golang, since the two constructs are semantically virtually identical. One is simply shorter than the other.

`?` is no less explicit than three lines of copy-pasted code and both its existence and behavior are forced due to the function’s return type.

> And in imperative code, which is the supermajority of all code, `?` gives no meaningful increase in speed-of-reading -- which is a bogus metric, anyway.

Ease of understandability is almost hands-down the most important metric given the ratio of frequency to code being read versus written. And to be completely blunt, it is flatly ridiculous that wrapping every line in nearly-identical error handling code somehow doesn’t impair comprehension. The argument is the same for abstractions like `map`, `select`, `reduce` et al. Intent and behavior of code can be understood at a glance when you remove the minutia of looping, bounds-checking, and indexing and focus on just the operation. And as an added bonus, you remove surface area for potential bugs like off-by-one or fencepost errors.

Having nearly identical error-handling everywhere both in theory and in practice obscures the places where something is different. It is hard to notice small differences in largely-identical blocks of visual information—hence the existence of “spot the difference" games—but it is trivial to spot when those differences are large.

I genuinely struggle to comprehend how people can have ideas like this when they fly in the face of what little hard evidence we do have about syntactic differences in programming.

Again, the studies that have looked at cohorts of people infected to estimate incidence have not had this strict of a definition of fatigue or depression.

Certainly some people have these symptoms and they are very very likely to be from the COVID infection itself.

But other people have more minor symptoms and these are included in many estimates of post-COVID syndrome, and discerning whether they were related at all to COVID and caused by COVID itself is more complicated, because if you were to screen a normal population with these criteria you'd find a fair incidence of these symptoms.
