You realise men get harassed by strangers too? All the time, about stupid shit, and rare is the day that anything is done about it.

It's really quite self centred to create new problems for the entire world because of a taxi driver. Think about how many people will now have to double search for things, or change scripts, or waste time because they didn't realise new tool=old tool. It's a huge new technical debt being created here. Coq is software, it's been around for many years, so the old name will never die. People will be dealing with half baked renames and duplications forever.

Immature people will find ways to be immature and annoying no matter what - the difference between adults and children is we're supposed to be able to deal with it and keep things in proportion. That doesn't seem to be happening here and it's a pity.
> Cowardly HR departments who don't recognize that, by and large, the activist employees are mediocre at best, rather than remotely productive employees, has made things worse.

This feels like you're projecting your opinion of these people and their political beliefs (which it appears you disagree with) onto their entire character and acting as if your opinion of them is the reality of the situation. Are there activist employees that are poor performers? Probably. But it feels more like you're trying to paint an entire subset of employees negatively because you disagree with their political stances.
Everything you're saying is... mostly what's been happening? It's not impossible to have consensus. You're missing my point which is that people were trying various solutions since 2008, and there just wasn't any consensus on this particular feature until a few years ago. There's no reason to put it in a spec if there's no consensus. It turned out that the consensus was to not put this in a Wayland protocol, and to do it somewhere else. So it would have probably been a mistake if someone tried to force this through before then.

If you ask me, people only notice the ones where it takes a while to reach agreement. Just look at the PR we're commenting on, it took nvidia several years to come around and implement dma-bufs. Sucks but it happens. No one ever seems to pay attention to all the other areas over the years where there was consensus.
Yeah, I saw DMA going much slower than PIO on the ISA bus. I remember scope shots showing the strobes being longer than anything else happening on the bus.

Right, PCI bus master DMA was fast (probably true of EISA and MCA also.. but don't know first hand).
I'm also concerned about the decline in small, independent bakeries that bake fresh bread every night. We see a trend of many regional bakery chains taking over where bread is prepared in a factory, frozen, delivered to the bakery shops and then baked up again. Quality suffers a lot this way and it's become harder to find good bakeries now. The article also describes this phenomenon, but you can probably only read it between the lines if you know the background.
Eh? Rogan is a podcaster. He is one of very few with a publisher/distributor; the vast majority are independent. 30 years ago (apart from pirate radio, I suppose) there was nothing like podcasts at all. Media has never been less centralised than today.
If paper is so cheap, how come books be so expensive?
Mutli-account containers is really a game-changing feature for me. I switched from Chrome back to Firefox about 3 years ago (even before containers were available) and at this point there's no going back. I keep chrome around for some sites that require it, but that's it.

Now how do I get Chrome to stop auto-installing itself in my login items on macOS everytime there's some kind of update.

Edit:

Also, if you're on Android, set Firefox Focus as your default browser! It's amazing to not have to think about the tracking consequences everytime you click a link somewhere on your phone. It's basically a new "container" for every link click. If you need the cookies, then there's a handy "Open With" menu to let you re-open the page with regular Firefox, or Chrome.

And uBO works on the regular Firefox Android browser.. Again, game-changer for me.
> It certainly isn't arbitrary... [a]gain, you may disagree with their reasoning, but it is not an unreasonable position.

Those are slightly incorrect interpretations of the words 'arbitrary' and 'unreasonable'.

Reasonable doesn't mean 'has reasons'. Every decisions has reasons. If a king decides to chop someone's head off he had reasons - he felt like it. Being reasonable/unreasonable is about whether an opinion can be changed by evidence and argument. Almost all moderation is unreasonable, I've very rarely seen a moderator make a call and then not stick with it (being unreasonable isn't always a bad thing). Reasonableness is a judgement call on the quality of the reasons behind a decision.

Similarly, arbitrary doesn't mean unpredictable. It is a judgement call on whether the reasons behind an action are reasonable. Being done on behalf of a policy doesn't make an action reasonable.

It is quite an easily sustainable argument that any content moderation policy is arbitrary. Compare European vs American media norms around moderating sex - it is pretty easy to argue by comparison some of the standards floating around are arbitrary, because standards differ but both continents produce great media which involves sex.
> Trans women are subjected to sexual violence from men in the same way that cis women are.

Yes but females are also subjected to sexual violence from males.
Microsoft's healthcare plan used to pay 100% of premiums, but over time it either became unaffordable or didn't work with the ACA.

Currently it's something like "we charge you a lot for the first few months but also give you the money to pay it in your HSA", which makes you wonder why they give it to you in the first place. It's not like you can optimize your prescriptions out of your life, so it's not enabling choice.
Firefox focus includes a decent safari content blocker
I like sway a lot, but I also encountered many bugs with its implementation. For example, it's drag and drop and focus switching randomly breaks when interacting with Xwayland windows. It also breaks resume/suspend if you have multiple GPUs. I finally went back to pure X11 and everything just works and is snappy. I miss the Wayland tear-free experience though.
I don't understand what you comment contributes to my knowledge. The author says that he will explain a magic trick. He says that step one is to XYZ. He does not say how to XYZ. He instead links to a Wikipedia page that says what XYZ is, but doesn't describe how to XYZ in a way that would work in the magic trick. Instead, it links to a book that might say more about XYZ. I am not about to buy that book.

Do you consider that trick to be sufficiently explained?
The threat of being dropped from the iOS app store for having offensive content would certainly motivate them.
Nope. The word "ponzi" has a specific meaning. Just because an asset is sold from one investor to another without producing anything, doesn't make it a ponzi scheme. Otherwise you could say gold is a ponzi, or oil is a ponzi, etc.
This feels like it ends with a supervillain plotting to kill everyone on Earth in order to save the planet.
I had some serious performance problems on my MBP last year, back when a lot of the major Rust changes came out (no idea if that's relevant). Was super laggy trying to play videos. Gave it another try a couple months ago and everything is fixed! Very happy user now, won't be going back to Chrome. The features you highlighted are some nice added bonuses on top of removing another layer of Google tracking.
Looks very similar to dust3d[1]. I wish the simplicity of this approach would be more widespread in 3d software.

> Spotify has a policy that says they won't host certain content. Rogan and his guests have a history of saying things that don't fit that content policy.

Citation needed

This is Spotify's content policy:

https://support.spotifyforpodcasters.com/hc/en-us/articles/3...

Assuming we're not talking about infringing or illegal content, we're left to conclude that Rogan "promotes, advocates, or incites hatred or violence against a group or individual based on characteristics, including, race, religion, gender identity, sex, ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, veteran status, or disability."

Note, that does not mean "has an un-PC take on something", it very specifically says promotes, advocates or incites hatred or violence. Where and when has Rogan ever done that?
What is your interpretation of what happened to James Damore? I would guess you and I have different opinions on what exactly took place, but I'm not sure either of us can presume that our opinions on those situations reflect the ground truth of what actually happened.
Notes was fun to use if your experience prior to it was Profs/OfficeVision. I had the odd privilege of using it inside IBM in the months before IBM bought Lotus, including writing the worst hack of sendmail.cf macros I thought possible to interchange between Notes, IBM’s RSCS networks, and the internet gateway we had. IBM had been developing a variety of GUI email products, mostly for OS/2, a little bit for Windows, but all in conflict with each other as well as the various OfficeVision flavors for OS/400 and VM/CMS. DEC had their enterprise email for their platforms, there was something for Novell. Notes gave IBM a single unifying platform for email and document sharing / management both internally as well as a product to sell to customers 10,000 seats at a time. In parallel the Internet went from being a thing a very small number of people were using to being the backbone of business, making a lot of the novelty of Notes obsolete. IBM in turn gave Notes the hug of death, loading up so much enterprisiness that Notes 5 felt like bloatware (it had a web server built into each client. And a JVM IIRC).

Things you got with Notes out of the box with minimal systems configuration effort: easy document sharing, easy authentication, entitlement, encryption of documents (and emails) across an organization. Easy provisioning of strong encryption across an organization. I could send digitally signed documents both within IBM and to peers outside IBM fairly easily. I could create a library of security processes for IBM's internet operations, pick out the organizations and people who could have access across the company, and it just worked. For bonus points we got document retention, audit logs, it all just was there out of the box. I didn't need to know ahead of time if someone was using Windows or OS/2 or a Mac.

It's easy to dismiss it all today as horrible bloatware, and as "just" an email tool it was probably overkill. I think too many companies (IBM especially) bought it, set it up, and utterly failed at educating people how to use it (IBMers were notorious for sending around email chains with multiple copies of Freelance or Powerpoint presentations, instead of a link to the presentation in a central repository, partly because IBM's services arm and IBM's CIO didn't want the overhead of managing such things.).

> I'm sure AWS has not done a disaster test

I wouldn't be so sure about that.
On a PC I don't have any issues with firefox. On mobile I do. I also am still pissed that they killed almost all the extensions for firefox on mobile.
Why would they? They got enough money and reach to go directly on platforms themselves...

On other hand, I'm not entirely sure how I feel about the companies marketing on things like pod casts... Some pretty famous ones don't seem to be too special products, see Raid Shadowlegends, Raycon and all of the VPN providers...
But it's not unreasonable for a programmer to expect no temporaries in code that just uses references.

The rules are too complex, some of this is down to the language itself and some is the fault of compiler writers.

I find myself using Compiler Explorer more and more for short code snippets to (obviously) see what the compiler is doing because I don't really trust my intuition that much any more. And the annoying thing is that clang and gcc can differ wildly in their codegen.

I don't think anyone can call themselves a C++, or possibly Rust, programmer unless they can also understand assembly code. Just getting code to compile isn't enough. It seems like a step backwards to me.
However, every time I reason about the problem & debug it, I gain a little knowledge and do it a little faster next time. Bisecting never really gets faster, aside from maybe writing a script.
It makes sense if one pictures the aether as a finite substance over an infinite surface area of and in of itself. Like a limited amount of paint that gets smooshed and pushed around. Intuitively I'd postulate that the aether is an incompressible fluid at 'neutral' - a fundamental formless form with directionality. Then when the aether interacts with itself in opposing currents it creates an inertia against itself causing it to evaporate into matter all the way into planet cores, rock, water, air, then outer space. It basically becomes a pressure gradient at different critical boundaries. Makes sense to me. Can simply a lot of Science most likely, just import the electron as a monopole that builds up into hydrogen and so on. Aether splits into E- and E+ and clumps until 1836 (proton/2 918 aether e+ e-).

Can be radically simplified with Torus, Aether, and Hyperboloid fluidic models around Vortices.
This is frankly an ignorant comment. Many of the best Special Olympic athletes would absolutely thrash your average in shape adult. Many of the men in their respective disability category for the 100m dash are sub 11-second, putting them in or near world class athlete times. And while those aren't Usain Bolt times, and not every category of Special Olympic athlete is equal, your average athletic male would be lucky to be in the 11-12 seconds range.
Oh, I remember having to look at the revision code for the 3c509... If memory serves, if it wasn't one of the red ones it had to be returned, and the red were a mixed bag!

>> in the US (like almost everywhere) debt cannot be inherited alone

In Poland(where I'm from) it can. When my father died I basically had to make a choice within a few weeks of his death - either refuse the inheritance entirely, or accept it with all his known and unknown debts. The second options meaning that if someone comes to me in 10 years time saying "hey I have this paper signed by your dad 20 years ago saying he owes me a million dollars" well, I now legally owe this person a million dollars. There is no concept of an estate of the deceased that gets settled first before any inheritance is given out(if anything remains). No, you have to make a choice whether you accept everything(including debts) or literally nothing at all. And you have to make the choice quickly because you cannot manage anything owned or related to the deceased(their bank accounts, mortgages etc) until you make the decision.
> It's true that Wayland is just a protocol but that protocol is also defined significantly by its implementations.

A protocol should never, never, ever be defined in any way by its implementations. The entire purpose of a protocol is to abstract away the common interface such that it is entirely implementation-agnostic.

Indeed, you might say that a protocol prescribes exactly the intersection of all implementations.
I second this, if anyone knows how to configure this or has a guide it would be much appreciated!
A lot of more recent programs (such as AWS, K8s tools) can easily output JSON. You can make schemas match, but you'll most of the time need to use something like jq to transform what one program outputs into what makes sense for the other.

I always try to design my tools with a "terse" output that makes it easier to pipe it into other programs.
> Sorry, are you seriously trying to claim an HSA is better than universal healthcare?

It's not an HSA and nothing else. It looks like it's similar to my employer plan which is actually more generous than some universal systems - I/my partner use about the same services here and in Australia and I pay less here. Mainly because universal systems don't always cover dentists/specialists/mental health.
As a current university student, I am painfully aware that there are good educators, okay educators, and piss-poor educators, but I do think we can expand our pool of very talented educators by making the necessary investments and making teaching a more lucrative field.
Simple Tab Groups
awesome complement. In special with Firefox, not loading tabs that you not have opened. And if you combine with Total Suspender... Like having infinite tabs with paying any price.
That's odd. I've found the keyboard shortcuts and tools to be similar enough (v and a being the most used) and annoying UX things, like every nudge of the cursor keys adds an undo step, have been done properly instead.
It’s not surprising at all. Adobe, as most of us predicted they would completely just give up and real innovation or advancement once they went subscription. Why spend a huge amounts of money on progress when every designer, photographer, artist, editor, game developer, VFX artist in the world is forced to pay for $50 a month.

They’ve dropped a small handful of extra features over the past 8 years but also during that time their software has stagnated and rotted. They didn’t move with technology so most of it is all single core constrained and barely uses the GPU so doesn’t feel any faster today than it did 8 years ago and in some cases parts of it actually feel slower as bitrot has set in.

After Effects went from a program that felt almost like magic to something that can’t even play it’s image sequence preview and sound without dropping out rendering it a complete frustration to use, again this all worked great on a Core Duo 2 iMac 10 years ago.

Every single part of Adobes business is there for the taking and with only small amounts of effort you can provide something that will take them years to catch up to if they ever manage at all, look at XD they started that when sketch was eating their lunch so they started making XD and they move so slowly that by the time it was even remotely viable it was already leapfrogged by Figma and now Adobe will never be relevant in that space again.

These things change frequently. I'll give it another go.
This assumes that everything that is benefits a company is evil and everything that hurts a company is good.

Luckily, this isn't true. There are absolutely areas where companies can do good and profit. Moving good jobs into a blighted area is a classic example of a win-win. The company gets low wages, and residents get some of the best jobs they have access to.
That's correct, but sort of missing context. The original PC bus was synchronous, and everything lived on it. So the idea was you'd fetch an instruction byte from the bus, then another, then another, then spend a cycle interpreting the instruction, then execute the load or whatever it was on the bus, then go back to do it over again. In that world a DMA controller that can do a transfer ever other cycle is much faster than the CPU copy it would be replacing.

Modern readers, weened on PCI, see something like "The ISA bus is 16 bits wide at 8 MHz" and think they should be able to stream 16MB/s "across" it "into" main memory. But that's not how it worked with ISA. It's not how it ever worked with ISA. The memory was on the same bus! And the CPU didn't even have a L1 cache!
It’s worth noting that in both the Sverdlov case and in this one, world scientists are only being given access to the situation in an extremely controlled fashion. A primary reason we can’t say more on what happened in this case is the CCP’s tight control over access that could help clarify the situation.

Which will always look suspicious, whether it was actually a completely natural virus or not.
> Would you really agree that the HTML for my "GET STARTED NOW" button should change depending on what kind of method my app uses?

Indeed not! “Get started now” should always be a link. If you want to give it fancy behaviour, you can attach an event listener to it that cancels the default one (mind the modifier keys).
I hope someone comes along to review those, but I don't see there being much interest in it.

> employees reaching outside of their role to forward their political goals

The vast majority of executives in the corporate world are conservative, and in addition to personally supporting conservative movements, they frequently direct company resources towards furthering right leaning agendas.

Is it really that offensive that a handful of employees are at a handful of tech companies are trying to steer the ship in the other direction? Are you similarly offended when oil companies lobby the government to further the oil industries interests? Are you offended when corporations successfully push congress to pass tax breaks largely targeted at corporations and the rich?
And paying for time spent in security checkpoints, and not counting "walking from workstation to break room" as break time, and compensation for workplace injuries.
They were Horry and Georgetown, SC.
That allows for visual rearrangement of that particular menu, but as far as I can tell the new tab button's list does not change and the extension keyboard shortcuts are still limited to the first 10 containers, which are bound by their creation order.

A non-sanctioned way to mitigate this might be achieved by editing containers.json, but I'm wary of inviting sync shenanigans.
Wouldn't that make MM 2,000, the same way II is 2 and XX is 20?
> Are refugees counted as immigrants? A lot of the refugees from Syria come through Turkey, so I'm curious if that's throwing off the numbers.

No, it's about immigrants from Turkey (who came mostly in the 60ies as regular working migrants to both feed Germany's hunger for workers and buy Turkey's entry into NATO). The Vietnamese on the other hand were often refugees, much poorer and with much less support.

There aren't any relevant numbers about the migrant crisis '15 yet, it's too recent to get meaningful statistics.

> The most stark difference is that refugees can (and likely will) be sent back when their country stabilizes enough.

True, but that very rarely happens in Germany. It's considered cruel to deport someone who has lived in Germany for a few years.

Deportations of asylum seekers usually only happen for so-called "safe countries", e.g. Balkan states, when the request for asylum is denied.
