> They should make their own choices

From what age onwards? And what should they do for choices before that age?
So you run a Linux box using Parallels and use VS Code or something on the Mac side to edit files? I'm interested in adopting a similar workflow, so your guidance would be appreciated.
The sourcing of the “database" claims in the few I checked is sketchy and indicates heavy spin (e.g., one cites a news article that indicates that certain claims were made in a just-filed lawsuit, the “database” reports those claims as settled fact.)

This seems to be an attempt to put a facade of neutrality over political propaganda about the extent and impact of “cancel culture”.

EDIT: Oh, and it falsely, with no support at all even in the article it cites as its source, states that the City Manager fired in the wake of the Duante Wright shooting waa fired for his appearance after the event where he said city employees are entitled for due process, instead of because he oversees and is responsible to the council for the police department and its failings.
It doesn't matter how they claim it's being used. It's a slur. The user of the slur doesn't get to decide who's offended by it. It's an offensive term just like the N word.
Those oligarchs are a tiny minority of the country population and their international financial endeavours are almost always tracked by Western intelligence agencies, but the pragmatic interest of the West is to welcome that money. They buy the most expensive real estate in London without even negotiating, send their kids to elite schools, buy their wifes jewellery at outrageous prices.
Since Facebook has agreed to implement censorship on behalf of the Turkish government[1], how long is it until discussion of the Armenian genocide is flagged as hate speech and fake news?

As far as Turkey is concerned, this is fake news. And big tech has agreed to defer to Turkey.

When Is Online Nastiness Illegal?
As someone with an Armenian dad and last name, I’ve felt some interest in this story and my country’s (US) refusal so far to acknowledge it since learning about it.

It’s pretty far removed from me, and I’d probably not live here if my ancestors hadn’t fled the Turks back in the day, but it’s also very sad to see that it’s used as a political token over and over again. Obama promised that he’d be the first sitting president to acknowledge it, but then didn’t. I don’t know if Trump promised to acknowledge it but he didn’t and his admin even rejected a specific opportunity to do so.

Now Biden is dangling it, either as a way to buy points with Armenian Americans (heh not likely, he’s got CA and doesn’t need to further lock in the Glendale vote) or more likely to push Erdogan to do what he wants. My guess is he doesn’t acknowledge it.

It’s really a bummer overall — it’s not like anyone in Turkey today had any part in it unless they are like 120 years old but Erdogan is in many ways basically a dictator that just hasn’t worn out his welcome with the rest of the world, I think largely because of geography and his not so thinly veiled threats re: immigration.
The piece seems to make the most negative assumptions about one workflow and the most optimistic ones about the other. Or rather the assumption that you take the effort to learn the optimal way to use one workflow but take no effort to do the same for the other. Most everything looks great when you take that approach.

Things like making a branch off of another branch being somehow so difficult that no one would ever even consider it. Or that there isn't a Github CLI tool that allows you to avoid having to go to the UI.
Yes, history is full of bytecode formats at any given point have gotten hardware implementation for them.

In some platforms they are even the only kind of format for executables and raw Assembly is forbidden to any userspace application, e.g. IBM i (nee AS/400) TIMI environment, where raw machine code is only available to the kernel, in the POSIX subsystem or special binaries produced via the Metal C compiler.

> how does the presigned URL work? I thought it was this - https://www.backblaze.com/b2/docs/b2_get_upload_url.html

If you want to use Amazon S3 APIs, you do not call ANYTHING that is documented on the Backblaze website, and you especially should not call "b2_get_upload_url" because that is a B2 native API, not an Amazon S3 API. You can always tell if you are using "B2 Native" if the call starts with "b2_" -> then that has literally nothing to do with Amazon S3 compatibility, it is the custom Backblaze protocol.

If you want to find out about Amazon S3 APIs (which you use to communicate to Backblaze's Storage Cloud or Amazon S3) then you can start here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/signature-vers... Make sure you stay ENTIRELY on the Amazon website, and only read Amazon documentation, and use the APIs Amazon talks about (but of course you are doing all of this communicating with the Backblaze Storage Cloud backend). If any of that fails in your application, or in incompatible, PLEASE LET US KNOW!!
I was thinking what if we used buildings built on jacks as our source of mass. Big one are largely built on pilings anyway, and even small ones on softer ground.

Going to be a lot of flexing though.

Nice thing is that some of the “inefficient” heat may be usable on-site: and you may get compressed air as an output that could be usable directly.
I agree. Importantly Space-X’s engines are actually cutting edge. They are the best performers man has made, so we’re not walking backwards. However, that progress was not guaranteed and if we stopped all space travel for fifty years there would need to be another monumental effort to relearn how to build rockets.

I play with CRTs as a hobby. It’s popular these days, but it will never be popular enough to manufacture another CRT. The last assembly lines closed a decade ago. The physics knowledge is there, and electronics have gotten better, but it would take many iterations to make a trinitron equivalent in another 20 years. The people who understood the magnetics (ie how horizontal output transistor and flyback transformer characteristics interacted with the impedance of the steering coils) are dead or retired. The same for the experts in mask manufacturing. We can figure it all out again and do it better than ever, but it would be a lot more work than if we had continued making them.

Again, it’ll never happen because they’re too big and require too much material compared to other display technologies. It’s just interesting how fast they disappeared when they were an integral part of human society for nearly all of the 20th century.

Yes, there is. HTML does not define what email addresses look like. If input [type=email] rejects valid addresses, it's harmful garbage.

Agreed, that's the only reason I've heard of him either.
Absolutely agreed; but how hard have you found it to help someone with their bike's adjustments? I've seen a growing trend of people not wanting the responsibility for such things; they wont futz with it, if you do its all your fault now and they expect you to own their problems.

Its the same attitude that we used to get when we fixed computers for family; but generalized.

Interesting how the article shows how this translates to destruction of capital assets and, eventually, people. That’s not necessarily clear otherwise.
My point wasn't so much that Christianity is a solution, but rather that despite how widespread Christianity became since its founding, one of it's core messages hasn't culturally sunk in.
One might add inherited circumstances that are predictive of outcomes.
Why dont we let historians investigate this instead of politicians?
There is definitely an aversion to email because it creates a paper trail. Messenger apps can be organized privately and not be subject to information requests. Current surveillance capitalism tech could easily keep politicians and governments 100% accountable if we turned it on them. If you live in an outwardly democratic country with strong rules about public service transparency and individual citizen privacy, but your government operates mainly with secret anonymous networks that shield members from scrutiny or accountability, you should have a problem with that.

Without public transparency, government becomes competing cells and factions (often using ethnic ties) who compete for a zero-sum pool of public money to keep their networks loyal. It can look a lot like organized crime because without transparency, that's exactly what it is. The encryption threat few people talk about is how it creates a separate government perimeter that shields them from public accountability. For example, "emergency services," are using military-style trunked encrypted radio systems with encryption. IMO, this tech decision (~20+y ago) was really a backdoor policy decision that de-facto changed the relationship of law enforcement to the public from being a service, to being an occupation / pacification / counter-insurgency operation. If you thought police behavior was a problem, wait until you see what politicians and bureaucrats with secure anonymous networks do.

What people here need to get right now is that Code is Policy. We're building it, forking it, hacking it, disrupting it, and what we reward, we will only get more of.
Watching politicians use encrypted messengers is like watching chimps use cutlery. It's cute and interesting, until they figure out how to stab each other with it.

I recommend watching this issue carefully.
Optimizing Prometheus and Grafana with the Prometheus Operator
NatSort – Simple yet flexible natural sorting in Python
Just like Wine, Boxedwine won't work with games that have CD checks. If it is just trying to find the CD in order to play a video off of it or grab a large file it didn't install, that might work, but only if the code isn't making sure its a real CD device. Seems like my UI should be able to handle the user dragging an installer into it from a CD where the CD will be used again. For that to work it would need to copy the CD and mount it internally so that the program can find it again while running. Right now I don't do that, but I think that would be a useful enhancement that isn't too hard to do.

As for the Putt-Putt, that has the look of flash or Adobe Air. I know that things like Java, and .Net don't work yet in Boxedwine, so if it is doing any kind of JIT then it won't work. I added that to the list of games I should look at.

You got pretty unlucky if you only tried 2 older games like that and neither worked.
These are big companies you would recognize. Shitty policies seem to go with the territory in large companies.
It's not about garbage creation, is about reference cost. With ARC, you pay a penalty every time you pass a reference type, not only for memory churn. You can avoid this using value types, but this often results in a lot of unnecessary copying.

It's not unavoidable, but Swift doesn't give good tools for avoiding ARC-based performance cliffs, so it takes a lot of profiling and effort compared to other languages.
I don't know what the OP meant but I certainly would mean specifically "the pandemic is to blame".

If there were no discernable response to the pandemic from any organized institution in society there is a pretty good chance the pandemic itself could be blamed for a /lot/ of terrible things.

Precisely, this is a bullshit survey with dodgy results. Online self-completion? 1499 participants? If this survey was the basis of this change in law, to be default opt-in, then something very terrible has happened.
...cops being racist...

This is vague and leads to confusion. We shouldn't imagine we can learn anything simply by judging the characters of individual officers. If our laws and police practices are racist, the beliefs and actions of the officers themselves won't matter. Of course, there are racist officers, just as there are racist judges, legislators, grocers, veterinarians, etc. I doubt that Newark has a high concentration of racist police officers relative to the rest of the nation, however.

> Why would android even allow such restrictions to be enabled in the first place?

To enforce DRM in streaming apps, mostly; though other apps have ended up bodging that for their own purposes.

I suppose at least in the context of secure messaging or banking apps (which also do this) it makes you think twice before snapping something, but even so I think there should be a variant of whatever API which lets the user override it / disable it globally.

Only genuine security concern I can think of that it addresses is that of screen recording malware / stalkerware (assuming said malware doesn't already have root access on your device to circumvent it...), and perhaps the risk of accidentally screenshotting/capturing something sensitive like bank details while screen sharing.
Turkey is the one that offered this solution
The original version was actually bytecode as you can see in many 50's and 60's papers, because when computing switched to micro-electronics most CPUs were micro-coded, this was one of the arguments of RISC against CISC, no micro-coded needed and all instructions should be implemented as hardware gates.

After all these gates it turns out that while RISC had some nice ideas, the flexibility of microcoded CPUs won the war anyway, and nowadays stuff like FPGAs makes it even more flexible than traditional microcode languages.
The problem with wind is storing the energy. I live in the Pacific NW and when you drive through the Columbia Gorge you see hundreds of these windmills. I have have visited the Wild Horse Wind facilities and they store energy using batteries -- terrible. The dams below can back up water, but wind blows whenever is may. The dams also provide safety from flood, a waterway, recreation, ... windmills just pollute the sky, kill song birds, and can not produce energy on demand nor store it effectively. Talk to engineers for Bonneville and they mock the windmills.

If they are going to use wind why not pump water up from the Columbia River up to the top of the surrounding hills? Use the potential energy at least.
Why use anything else?
Why reply like with insults like this ("pathetic", etc), and most of all, why did people flag the comment? Assuming your own stats are correct, you refuted his comment really well, and using abusive language only diminishes your response.

If HN is going to actually engage in these political debates (and I question whether it's wise to do so for the community), then people are going to have to stop flagging comments that go against whatever they believe, and just refute them like you just did (using your facts, not your insults).

If you believe (like I do, increasingly) that HN should avoid the political topics, then flag the whole article, not individual comments.

PS: the reason why people use throwaways for unpopular opinions is because they are well aware that there's a large group of people out there who will go after their jobs.
You can watch one of his talks here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAGwol-keXM and here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xneBjc8z0DE

He always had a certain eccentricity to him. I never met him in person. He always was the prototypical nerd judging from his talks and mannerisms.
The problem with all this data is that it doesn't inform us of who is actually committing crimes.

If we are overly fixated on racism by the police and confuse correlation with causation, we might entirely miss other structural/systemic factors that might be leading (or forcing) black people to criminal behavior more often than white people.

I am aware of some research that tries to estimate propensity to actually commit crimes using victim surveys instead of police data, but I see so many conflicting results from different academic fields that I don't feel like I can form an opinion.

All I know is that measuring disparities in arrests is not enough and cannot possibly be enough to distinguish police racism specifically from other racial disparities.

There's little recourse to fake DMCA complaints. The reason the DMCA exists was to placate content owners who wanted a way to get infringements taken offline quickly. There does need to be something done about fake complaints - this is especially affecting creators, journalists (I'm including small time bloggers and vloggers in this group) and others who can't afford an army of lawyers to protect a small revenue stream. The problem is that it will be hard to get anything done because bigger media companies will loby to get even more power than they have today.

TVs are sold on refresh rate, color accuracy, contrast, backlight localization, and panel resolution. This stuff is written on the box and promoted in marketing material. They are unavoidably differentiated on technical specs, even in the eyes of a layperson. Some of those specs depend on the panel (itself a semiconductor product) and others depend on processors/ICs.

I'm not suggesting that no parts can ever be a commodity (like capacitors in a laptop), but as I spend more, I increasingly tend to look for a technical advantage that justifies the marginal price.

I'll give you an example. If you want to buy a docking station for an Apple TB3 enabled MacBook, you have a couple of controller options at the higher end: Alpine Ridge and Titan Ridge. Better chips exist but they haven't found their way into truly well engineered consumer docks. I have a multi monitor setup with one superultrawide screen that can do 120Hz, so I opted for the Titan Ridge dock. It was buggy, so I ended up returning it and buying an Alpine Ridge dock that lacks the ability to push my big monitor at its best-looking resolution. And that's for a sub-$300 peripheral.

Like most of us here on HN, I'm one of the "few" that GP mentioned. But these are consumer products and they are mass marketed based on their technical specs.

Apple itself markets technical innovations in its 6k IPS monitors. The back is designed to dissipate heat, the monitor works with TB3 (ie, an Intel chip)...they even market the glass treatment in a deeply specific way.
I don't know. But it really should. If it turns out that it doesn't, there's something very wrong with the entire situation.
While that is true for certain denominations, it is most definitely not universal[1].

I think it's a little different across sects, but I grew up around a lot of baptists and the line was that anyone who asks was forgiven at any point, so I think this falls into the repentant category, though I don't think it actually requires repent. Lots of tough questions around someone who lives a virtuous life who asked forgiveness at an early age versus an evil person asking for forgiveness on their death bed and them both ending up in the same place.
