Honestly, I'm at the point that pretending to say I believe in god is an easier thing to aqcuiesce than some of these downright irrational "anti-racism" campaigns in corporate america. If I see someone of minority status, the only time I'll bring it up is if we're friends and it's relevant to the conversation. It's a unique trait. For some reason the left has altered it into being a badge of honor that white people should feel ashamed for noticing. And for some reason management is falling in line. Nobody cares. If anything it just makes it easier to weed out individuals of both white and minority status by seeing who challenges it or tries to use it as a means to challenge management.

Yeah it's a bit troubling that such weird clauses exist in the Apache license, and that the Apache license has become this popular lately. The main motivator is that everyone else is doing it I think, and the patent license.

Large Apache licensed projects without contributor agreements exist (LLVM for example).
Maybe this can help you, I looked at your fork of tree-sitter to figure out what you were trying to do.

But what you really want is to get your head around ownership and borrowing, especially when it comes to the scoped RAII that rust has (e.g. freeing a String while a reference to it still exists and is being used would give you the "temporary value dropped while borrowed" error).
I don’t think apologists for the CDC are grasping what’s at stake here. If the government and especially government scientists are widely perceived to have lied to the public, no matter how noble a reason they think they have, it is going to further shatter faith in our institutions. This could well be our Watergate.
It's also possible that the formula they used has changed -- my bottles are several years old now.

> there should have been a damn good reason to pull it even temporarily

And the damn good reason was that there's a bunch of people out there who don't want to take the vaccine for political reasons. And there's a smaller amount of people who don't want to take the vaccine because they're uninteresting in taking a new vaccine. They're looking for reasons to validate their fears.

If you just keep pushing the vaccine even though a bad thing happened to a small number of people, then there will be people who use this as an excuse to avoid all of the vaccines completely.

Take down the vaccine and make a bunch of lab coats spend a hectic two weeks double checking some figures and people will feel listened to and they'll have less arguments to not get the vaccine. The vaccine that you're taking is as safe as it can be. After all when we saw a problem we did something about it.

This is 100% about optics and PR AND that's 100% necessary right now in order to get the job done.

> I lay the blame primarily on anti-vaxxers

Don't even talk about anti-vaxxers right now. The only thing bringing up anti-vaxxers will do is grow that movement. The people who don't want the covid vaccine are not anti-vaxxers. They get the flu vaccine and they get their children vaccines. They're only afraid of the new covid vaccine. They don't like anti-vaxxers any more than you do, BUT if you call them that then some of them are going to decide they might as well join the anti-vaxxer movement.

These are two groups of people who I do not want to join forces. Covid hasn't exactly been a fun time, but I'm really not interested in seeing polio and friends come back.

Have rational debates, quit the name calling, go the extra mile to convince people who don't like your position to do something for the greater good. Otherwise, we're not going to see enough vaccinations to make a difference.
The section I have italicized here stood out in the statement from the FDA/CDC, in my opinion. This is not about putting vaccinations with the Johnson & Johnson vaccine on hold infinitely. For a good part, it seems to be about being aware of and prepared for this serious adverse effect, not to avoid it at all costs.

"Until that process is complete, we are recommending a pause in the use of this vaccine out of an abundance of caution. This is important, in part, to ensure that the health care provider community is aware of the potential for these adverse events and can plan for proper recognition and management due to the unique treatment required with this type of blood clot.", from https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2021/s0413-JJ-vaccine.htm...

> The developer is a user

then he should not put restrictions on other users then himself. The point is that all users should have the freedoms not only the developers, the only limitation is that you can't abuse users.

A good example would be a quote I heard in a play of Uncle Tom's cabin (this was a translated and adapted so it might not be present exactly like this in the book). So in the play a french and some americans debate slavery and the salve owner says something like "America is the land of the free because we are free to own slaves" , like that slaver some companies and developers want to be more free to abuse others (put DRM to lock people, create proprietary formats, spy on users, nag them etc).

IMO we all are free to chose the license for our work, and if anyone wants to make his work BSD or proprietary it is his rights, but they should not complain when someone chose GPL because he decided that he is concerned about user abuse.
Deciding that your pain is well managed without opiates has always been a perfectly reasonable and medically-accepted option, and unsurprisingly there has never been any sort of social stigma against people who decline painkillers.

Most to the point, declining to take painkillers does not adversely impact other people's health.

This is not a good analogy.

eta: ironically, the problem with the opioid crisis was not too much regulation and oversight by "the authorities", but too little; too much freedom for doctors to prescribe stronger painkillers, and for patients to request them.
I have to disagree: Apple certainly could block content in a selective way that avoids breaking apps (not that Apple is particularly averse to breaking existing apps).

Beyond that, the browser engine may be an irrelevant implementation detail to the end user, but at the ecosystem-level, iOS's Safari lock-in has many harmful effects that are already well known and widely discussed.
Sadly, as news papers discovered years ago, publishing corrections makes you seem less trust worthy than papers that never publish any, even though the later at best equal, and often worse.
No, housing prices didn't fall dramatically in the wake of the 2008 crisis. I mean, sure, they fell 33%, but they were still higher (compared to income) than at the beginning before the start of the 2000-2008 bubble, at least in the 80 years of records I can trivially look up.

That's true in the US and UK.

I'd contend that preventing massive asset depreciation, including housing, was an explicit policy of every major economic power in North America, Europe and China. I don't know, but suspect other major economic powers also participated in that, but I'm not as well versed.

(I should point out that in the 1950s it was just as large a multiplier of household income, but in that time we went from one wagerearner to two.)
I don't understand your argument. I grew up and realized the United States was doing something really dumb, but since I grew up in that environment I can't want things to be different?

You're having a strong reaction to this concept of sustainability. Austerity will come one way or another. Probably better to design and plan for it and build nice neighborhoods where you are not dependent on a large expense than not.

Anyway, what's so austere about walking to the grocery store nearby instead of driving a mile down the road? Why build so that you have to drive a car instead of making it optional?

Btw it would be awesome to buy you a beer if we ever met - nothing personal here. :)
> What they have trouble with is exponential growth at very high rates, which nearly always implies very high risk.

Correct, traditional banking "has trouble" with exponential growth at very high rates. Which means that actually, they do understand something fundamental about it.
The way it's being done is the problem. No one can have a discussion about things anymore. It does us no good to be living on the moral high ground as our borders are invaded and our technology stolen. I'm not saying people shouldn't be treated equally...however the actions of a few don't speak for the entire country (this goes for bigots, radical islamists, mass shooters, rogue police officers and many others). Everyone loves to be offended by something now...but it's not the majority and passing more laws won't make people less racist.
The reoccurring problem set being finite does not prevent it from being large, or costly to prepare for in terms of time.

I don't assume anything.

I have explained that in practice it's not possible for people to live within walking distance from their work. Cycling extends the range but it's still not enough, and not always practical. Public transport is not always viable either because not practical and economical, and people actually don't like to have to rely on public transport for everything unless perhaps (and again) when they live in the centre of large cities.

All of this holds true including in Europe.
As I pointed out, singular they/them has been well established in English for centuries (it dates to the 1300s)

This and the right to repair areas are where I’d like to see Apple forced to do a lot better through laws (since it has not done as much as would be expected from a company of this size and profits). Apple cannot claim that the App Store being the only source of apps and in-app payments (without allowing side loading or allowing app makers to even mention other payment options) is the safest option while not doing enough on scams. You don’t need machine learning or AI to catch many of these scams.

That the developer of FlickType (the OP of this Twitter thread) had to file a lawsuit says a lot about how much Apple isn’t paying attention. I seriously wonder what the person at the top level managing the App Store is doing, other than lobbying to prevent any possibility of alternate payment options or allowing side loading of apps.
Also an IMO important point: if a copyright holder notifies you of a violation, you have an explicit 30 day grace period to "cure" that.

The GPLv2 instead terminates your license, requiring a reinstatement by the copyright holders.
Don't disagree, but

I'm also self-taught. I couldn't reverse a binary tree in a tech interview (without looking up how to do it first) because it's never been relevant to my job. I could, however, stand up an API and deploy it to AWS in a similar period of time, because it is relevant to my job.

I used 1Password for a long time. When they shifted to the SaaS model I left angrily. Over time I tried out several other programs such as Enpass (came close to the original 1pw), keepass varieties, Bitwarden but found myself back at 1Password this year.
One big thing, which funny enough is another dark pattern I guess, is the family account feature. I allows me to take family members on and we can share certain passwords and I think even help recover an account. This is also important because 1PW is the most easy to use password manager and my mom was really struggling with Enpass.
The real trick is using it as a collateral for loans. So yeah, this is even more complicated in practice.

we have switched to using denylist and allowlist at work and have found it a far better term than what it replaces. Our non-technical colleagues understand the terms without any definition or explanation.

>There's more important shit than money

Sure but for people who have the opportunity, it's perfectly rational to invest a significant part of your 20s to accumulate enough wealth by doing the "silly dance" and then spend the remainder of your life financially free.

I'm not saying your path is wrong or you shouldn't pursue it, but it is risky for a lot of people to take a massive pay cut and only work a few days a week in their youth and expect that doing so is sustainable or that it can be done for the bulk of their life.

The less risky approach for many who have the opportunity to do so is to actually invest the time to understand the fundamentals of computer science. Really get to know data structures and algorithms like the back of their hand, spend an hour after dinner every night for a couple of months practicing how to apply that knowledge to solve leetcode problems, and then do the interview circuit to negotiate a high salary so that by the time you're in your mid 30s you're a millionaire and can effectively spend the rest of your life working on your own terms.

Where’s the cost benefit analysis?
Yes, without getting into all the practicalities (and there are many deep dives into all of them), the general argument is go ahead and get rich off a mixture of your luck, work, and all the benefits that society collectively owns (well-educated workers, roads, etc etc etc) and enjoy it. Be a multi-millionaire. But after you die, whatever is left goes back into the common pool for all kids to have, for example, savings accounts that they access when they are 18

The risk isn't just the blood clots, it's that the vaccine is perceived as rushed (it was) and warning signs were ignored, so maybe other things were ignored.

Leading to more people delaying their vaccination. Supply is currently at a level that all doses available are administered, but to the extent lost confidence results in longer delay for high risk patients, that has a cost. When supply exceeds demand, lost confidence will have a cost for those low risk people who delay, as well as the general population which loses out on wider immunity. Delaying the vaccine now certainly also has some cost of the same type, but it's bounded. Another case of a vaccine campaign ignoring warning signs and proceeding without pausing to consider appropriate response to issues as they arise will affect this campaign as well as future campaigns.
Plus depending on news source Apple supposedly can get close to a hundred thousand apps submitted each week.[0]

That staggering number of apps is bound to have leakage of the bad sort and as long as Apple has in place a means to report them then they should be given some leeway. If there is no process (I really don't know) then yeah we should call them out on it.

Yeah ok, makes sense. (Apologies for making you spell out the question again; I could've probably inferred what you meant and answered that in my earlier reply).

I have a history of self-employment and little formal education in programming per se. It might put potential employers at ease to be able to exhibit some conventional chops, and that kind of interview segment would give me an opportunity to. And algorithm-questions being more or less role-agnostic might mean less preparation rather than more for interviews when one is doing a bunch. OTOH if you want a particular role you should probably better brush up on what's needed for that role and show each application you make some individual love rather than hoping that you can carpet bomb tech company interviews in your city with algorithm-knowhow-powered interviews and get a job out of it.

Given how theoretical this discussion is for me, I feel like I'm slipping into being some kind of devil's advocate role now. I would like to apologise to anyone (basically everyone else here will have more experience with tech interviews than I have) who's reading this rolling their eyes.

You can use a demultiplexer to turn e.g. 4 pins into 16 chip select. But the fact that the number of wires has to grow at all to accomodate additional devices is certainly a big downside compared to I2C, and for wired networks that basically makes it impossible to daisy chain devices.
The problem is you could have a huge legal battle over it.

I'm frankly surprised that ANY lawyers signed off on the GPLv2 (as in, picking it for a company sponsored project) as the "any later version" and "similar in spirit" are quite open to interpretation.

And all we'd need to see in GPLv5 or v6 is some line like "nothing in this license shall be taken as being incompatible with the BSD/CDDL" to open a huge can of worms.

Honestly, if you want to do "or later" I'd instead just assign your code to the FSF to do with it what they will.

> Who comes up with this total garbage?

Johns Hopkins University. I don't feel like that's typically considered a bad source. Maybe it's a bit high or they're looking at different data sets.

But again, and I cannot overstate this enough, even if I accept the 0.5% number, that's still a lot of deaths, about 1.5 million if everyone in the US gets it.

According to the NYTimes [1], there's been about half a million deaths from COVID. If your provided number of 100M infected people is correct, then that would be consistent with 1.5M dying if everyone gets infected (US population ~= 3 * 100M, 3 * 500,000 = 1.5M).

This is not, in any way, similar to thalidomide. Thalidomide was an issue because it is enantiomeric and different effects were caused by each enantiomer, only one of which was noticed. That is not an issue here, as we are talking about proteins. The primary difference though is that there was no treatment imperative with thalidomide, but there is with this.

Again, we are talking about introducing something that is guaranteed to be in your body anyway if you contract COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2 is viral to the point where, without perpetual lockdowns/mask-wearing/vaccinations, you will get it. So it is still definitely better to get vaccinated, at least with an mRNA vaccine – please stop spreading FUD. Your concerns could be more warranted for vaccines like J&J which use modified viral vectors, but again, exceedingly unlikely that this could be any worse than the virus itself.
The scam really is about the iOS Subscriptions and how its easy to have a free trial then auto-bill you for some absurd amount. Very easy to trick people into doing this.

Apple should just remove Subscriptions completely and have app developers turn them into consumable IAPs that you have to buy every X months.

The app developer can still do a free trial in their own code.

Games do this all the time with "premium". You buy 30 days of Premium for $5. 30 days later its done and you have to buy it again. No auto-recurring subscriptions.

In answer to your last sentence: almost every single one of his critics has lived a real life, with real bosses and colleagues, etc. The difficulty is that if the problematic person is in control, the only way to "move on" is to not deal with the organization that person controls. If this is what the FSF wants, they can go in that direction.
