Isn’t the ponzi designation entirely correct? Nobody gets rich holding USD - it’s a medium of exchange. People get rich holding Bitcoin iff they can generate more future demand. This sounds like stocks, except with equities you also can get rich by claiming your stake of cash flows (ie dividends or buybacks), but there’s nothing of the sort with Bitcoin. What am I missing?

Can't speak to e-scooters in particular, but cold weather gets cited as a problem for bikes as well, so thought I'd bring this up: for bikes at least it's as much of a question of infrastructure priorities as it is the weather itself. Plenty of people bike in places with much colder weather than New York all the time: https://youtu.be/Uhx-26GfCBU

...they just have safe paths to ride on, and those paths get maintained. (So: not a painted bike lane that all the snow gets shoveled into.)
Here ice skating rinks are closed (outdoor-only ones are open to a maximum of four 12 year olds on the entire rink at once, it's fucking absurd).

I've not skated in seven months. My weight is stable thankfully because I spent 400 bucks buying a VR system and beat saber, not all my (mostly younger) skating fellows can afford that luxury. Running is out of the question, and gym at home is awfully boring.

Point is, do not just assume people will "find other ways to exercise". Sports centers should be considered health necessities, not recreational, in the context of the current pandemic.

I agree that there’s probably not much value in just retreading the old specs, but I’d argue that just having the knowledge that it has been achieved in practice still puts you ahead of the engineers in 1961, and that the intervening decades of progress put you even further ahead.

There’s no reason to think that an equally well funded greenfield effort couldn’t land on the moon from a standing start within a decade; it’s not like we’re living in the shadow of an ancient advanced civilisation with no present day industrial capacity.

As you allude to, treating a compiler as an isolated batch process is an outdated strategy. Any compiler started today should be designed such that it can be used in an IDE from the start, even if you don't implement it in that way until after you've reached a certain level of maturity.

For error messages in particular is a very expansive topic because a compiler might have the following components:

Lexer
Parser
Macro Expansion
Name Resolution
Lowering
Type Checking
Privacy Checking
Lifetime Analysis
Code Generation
Linking

and all of them can produce errors. If you introduce error recovery in your parser, then you better make sure you're carrying that information forward to name resolution and type checking. If you introduce a error type placeholder, better account for it during the rest of your analysis to avoid complaining about non-existing methods on something that wasn't resolved in the first place. Error deduplication. Exploring the grammar space to identify things that a human may attempt but isn't allowed for good reason but that will not blow up until some quasi-random stage. Now that I think about it you could write a whole book about these topic.

Debuggers don't have to halt execution on hitting a breakpoint. They can do other things, like print the contents of memory, letting the host system handle the formatting. They're actually usually better for timing-sensitive prints than printf debugging.

That said, most people don't know this is possible (the learning curve issue you mentioned), even though it's an important part of how to use debuggers!
Dell was amazing at this 10-15 years ago. They had less than 24 hours of production volume of harddisks (and other components) on their own shelves, but forced their suppliers to have them ready. Which resulted in the suppliers building warehouses close to Dell manufacturing locations, essentially offloading some of the inventory costs upstream in the supply chain. They could do that because suppliers were competing for Dell order volume. And Dell to their customers never specified the brand of the components just generic specs like 7200 rpm, 100 GB.

Nuclear Detection System
The Nuclear Detonation (NUDET) Detection System (NDS) consists of space, control, and user equipment segments. The space segment consists of NUDET detection sensors on the GPS satellites. The Department of Defense and DOE now have a full constellation of 24 GPS satellites in 10,900-nautical-mile orbits capable of detecting and locating nuclear detonations worldwide, 24 hours a day.

The NDS provides a worldwide, highly survivable capability to detect, locate, and report any nuclear detonations in the earth's atmosphere or near space and in near real time. The NDS supports NUDET detection requirements for AFSPC (Integrated Tactical Warning and Attack Assessment [ITWAA]), USSTRATCOM (Nuclear Force Management), and AFTAC (Treaty Monitoring).

The NDS control segment consists of ground control hardware and software known as the Integrated Correlation and Display System (ICADS). The user equipment segment consists of the Ground NDS Terminals (GNT).

The Lockheed-Martin Sandia Advanced Radiation Detection Capability Data Unit (ARDU) was delivered to the Air Force during FY94 and the Integrated Correlation and Display System (ICADS) began operations for the tactical warning and attack assessment community. The ARDU processes nuclear detonation (NUDET) detection data from sensors on the Defense Support Program satellites and creates a NUDET report. ICADS correlates the ARDU report with analogous data from sensors on the Global Positioning System satellites and creates overall assessment displays for Air Force operators. These reports are forwarded to national command authorities over a wide area network.

It's scary that this could have happened without substantial corroborating evidence. I don't care how reliable you think the software is. Software has bugs! For any enterprise system of any scale, no matter how tight the development, and especially once you start to evolve the system, is going to be full of them. This idea of proving reliability is fantasy. Proofs might work on mathematically-based algorithms ie certain discrete bit of code like a cryptographic function, but you can't ultimately proove anything about any system of any scale. You can use heuristics like tests to gain a high degree of confidence but "proofs" or anything even in that ballpark?!
> Perhaps you can point out how explicitly how they adjust for shifts of how definitions like "consistently liberal" shift over time?

Once again, the questions are just policy questions. They don't mention anything about "liberal" or "conservative". They ask policy questions, which is exactly what you seem to have wanted initially. If you've read the study methodology, then you should be aware of exactly what the survey respondants are asked.

> Additionally being "fiscally right wing" is an overall right wing position

If you believe that, then the coming years are going to be a big surprise to you. The GOP of Reagan is on its way out. People like Hawley, who are happy to work with Bernie Sanders on certain fiscal policies, are on their way in. You may well still hate them because they are populists, but they have a different outlook on multinational corporations and the ultrawealthy than the old GOP.
> Get a judge having a bad day in France and your case could go belly up regardless of merits, customs or precedent.

You're spreading FUD. 1) Few civil actions are decided in a day. 2) You can almost always appeal a decision. 3) Statutory law in Civil Law countries tends to be much more detailed and comprehensive (compared to statutory law in Common Law countries), precisely because no one likes to "retread the same legal wheel over and over", so law makers at some point decided to codify what already was (or was supposed to become) common practice. So judges have much less wiggle room in their decision than you and OP are implying.

This is also the reason why "commercial agreements drafted in civil law countries tend to be rather brief […] since there is no reason to restate codified law"[0].

It's a "guilty until proven innocent" story, and I'm afraid there'll be many more in the future when the black-box software so prints out and whomever is in charge refuses to question the legitimacy of the claims for whatever reason they may have.

I've heard part of the problem is that the Post Office were allowed to conduct their own prosecutions. If the public prosecutor (Crown Prosecution Service) would have been involved, they would have asked the Post Office for any material which would have benefited the defence (this would be passed as disclosure). Because the Post Office were "victim" and prosecutor they never did this and the defence didn't get this material.
It seems like this scheme was unraveling before Trump came into office. If it hadn't been, Trump may have proved to be good for him, in driving renewed optimism for domestic steel production and simultaneously stripping regulatory bodies like the EPA of oversight and enforcement capacity.

The lead in car batteries is one of the most recycled materials on the plant. Your link is talking about lithium, not lead. Lithium-ion batteries only make sense in portable applications like cell phones and electric vehicles where weight is a major consideration. In stationary applications, heavier batteries like lead-acid are infinitely more practical.
I feel like the author gets close to the point but fails to drive it home: step-through debugging is unbelievably cumbersome. During a typical step-through debugging session, 90% of the time is spent on lines you are completely not interested in. Oh, did you accidentally skip the important point because of how tedious it was to keep spamming step-over/step-in? Better start over again. With print debugging, you set up your print statements strategically and -zing-, you get your results back. Feedback loop shorter. 100% of the lines are the ones you are interested in, because you put the print statements there.

I'm still waiting for the feature where you can conditionally stop at some breakpoint -only- if some other breakpoint/watchpoint was crossed over. It's not a conditional breakpoint, because conditional breakpoints can only watch variables, not other breakpoints. You could of course set some variable depending on whether some section was entered and then conditionally break based on that variable. But then you're back to print debugging land, having to manually insert code in order debug the program.

Debuggers are superior when it comes to interrogating the exact state of some variables, as well as the decision paths the program takes. For anything simpler, print debugging simply offers the better developer experience.

I find it hard to believe that the approach taken - to prosecute sub post masters in this way - didn't make it to board level (indeed if it didn't then that by itself would be a corporate failure).

Individual managers may have had incentives that would lead to take this approach but the PO Board should have had an overview and have been able to correct this.

In any event a great scandal and very sad as you say.
It's usually rare though.

The largest fascist/ultra far right organization in Germany (by far) are the Turkish Grey Wolves, while ethnic Turks make up about 4% of the population. There are approximately the same amount of ethnic Russians living in Germany, but Russian far right groups aren't known to be relevant in Germany.

I grew up with quite a few Turks in Germany, and all but one were extremely nationalistic and supremacist. It appears that Turkish culture and their historical narratives are different from others. You don't e.g. hear about the Japanese today talking about Koreans as vermin, but it's common to hear those tones from Turkey.

Print debugging is essential in distributed systems. Sitting in the debugger waiting for human input often leads to timeouts and not covering the case you want. Of course, sometimes adding the prints, or even just collecting values to be printed later also changes execution flow, but like do the best you can.
What a bogus headline.

If you don't want to try to sync with others publically, don't airdrop in a place where you think someone is waiting to steal your information.

Reality though - your email and phone number is probably already out there.

I'm waiting for the headline - thieves who grab the phone you stick out in front of you while you walk / sit / eat / drink / ride bus / ride train - may get PII. They really can - and likely lots more than whatever apple is leaking.

No excuse for apple's idiocy, just some perspective perhaps. You can easily avoid this - I can't remember last time I used share pane in public.

> I think the scooters being left in the middle of the sidewalk is more a function of people being shitty, inconsiderate, and lazy. Unless the scooters self park themselves or people who dump them get shamed I don't see how that fixes itself.

I wholly agree. I think it's just like trash on the ground, it mostly doesn't get itself there on its own.

But maybe companies should take the habits of local people into account. If you know people won't bother to leave them out of the way, maybe don't deploy your service there? Just as if you know people are going to trash your scooters, steal batteries or anything else, you won't enter that market because it will be too expensive. But I guess the latter affects the company's bottom line, whereas the former is, at worst, just bad press.
> it's a government organization

You're conveniently overlooking the role that Fujitsu, the software contractor, played.

The issue is concentration of power at large organizations, relative to the rights of individuals in society.

It is problematic when any organization accumulates too much power and runs roughshod over an individual citizen, whether that organization is government or private enterprise.
