I have a solution for this: immediately revocable vote vouchers. You pick your rep from the pool of all people willing to be a representative, and they vote on your behalf until they make a decision you don't like, at which moment you are free to revoke their control of your vote and give that to someone else. We could compensate representatives based on their rolling average of people represented.

You decide who represents you, directly (rather than pooling geographically, which is patently stupid) and representatives are operating with consistent incentive to act in the interest of their direct constituents.
People downvoting... Guys, read it slower or something.

Given I've seen some CMS's double escape html character entities and other such bad uses of sanitation filters, I think it is a reasonable concern to think about. Forcing people to source a library would make it clear what their intent is in terms of cleaning things up.
> For many existing code bases (especially for projects with clearly defined scope) good enough is easier achieved by fixing up C code compared to a rewite in a different language.

I feel like this is because our standards for "good enough" are so low, partly because languages like C and C++ make it so hard to do any better. It's true that there is a high cost to switching languages for an existing project, but the cost we are paying for all of foundational tools and libraries being built in a shaky unsafe way is also huge.

Studies I've seen suggest that ~70% of security vulnerabilities in C and C++ codebases are bugs (memory safety, thread safety, undefined behaviour) that would be caught by static checks in other languages. Think how much time and effort goes into ensuring basic safety invariants in C codebases. Then think how many of the remaining logic bugs we could catch if that effort was spent entirely on finding them.

This is from screening. People in Australia generally understand the importance of skin cancer screening because most people know of someone who's had skin cancer.

There's a number of handy uses cases for this, but the biggest one from my point of view is another layer of defence in depth. This is something that many frontend libraries already do for you (React, Vue, etc) where you have to explicitly render unsafe HTML when you want to. Making this a standardized API simply makes it more accessible and hopefully faster. It is often the case that the backend won't know what data will be rendered and what will used in another way so it makes sense to have a sanitation step before you render what you know on the frontend to be dynamic data. Put another way, even if there is a vulnerability or two in your backend that might sum up to an injection, if you also sanitize on your frontend, you'll still keep your users safe.

It's possible that your bias against believing this means your interpretation is a lot of bizarre takes dressed up as the only possible conclusions.

What I don't get is the arrogance of every side about this subject. We have no answers. We have no understanding. The government seems to be about to admit as much. But the true believers are sure, and the true debunkers, yourself included, are sure. To me, you're both just tin foil hat flunkies clinging to your own special precious version of the coming apocalypse. Your own special cult. Why can't people be more: (Ca) open to nuance and ambiguity and comfortable with their not being a resolution right now, and (Cb) genuinely curious and accepting of other people's perspectives rather than so "sweaty fear sprung" to be full of conviction that everyone who doesn't swallow their brand of belief on the matter is clearly a crank?

More specifically, in your case, you have an actual mirror case of crank-iness: you have a conspiracy for the creation of all the evidence, rather than a conspiracy for the suppression of it. I mean, don't you see that parallel? And aren't you a little suspicious of that?

That's what I mean. I don't blame you specifically. Something about this topic seems to short-circuit everyone to leap logic and arrive directly at certainty. It's a big human blindspot. I wonder why this topic triggers it? Maybe because we don't have any answers, but the stakes, perhaps, are so high.

I'm sorry but your casual debunking, dressed up as reasonableness, is no better than the crankiest of crank theories. Let's all do better, so... meet you somewhere in the middle. :) ;P xx

I agree with you, this situation warrants a breaking of all our rules. And I hope that something good will come of it, other that then increased number of produced vaccines.

I know it's theoretical, I'm just saying, perhaps it will not be all good. But we'll deal with that when we get to it. Maybe viral vaccines should be an organized governmental effort from now on. Coordinated by WHO or something.

So asking for the other patents involved is a reasonable question, especially since your assertion presumably involves knowing - at least vaguely - what said patents might be.

See the spec document for the rationale. In short: The browser already has a good and safe parser, and knows best how it will treat which elements. An external parser written in JS is overhead while likely to be worse than/outdated compared to the browser. (In general security practices, parsers being used for validation being different than the parser used for processing later is somewhat of a smell, because it makes it more likely you can sneak something bad through a special case)

[W]orking through the git history of ZoL I have also discovered that
many races and locking bugs have been fixed in ZoL and never made it
back to Illumos and thus FreeBSD. This state of affairs has led to a
general agreement among the stakeholders that I have spoken to that it
makes sense to rebase FreeBSD's ZFS on ZoL.

This port will provide FreeBSD users with multi modifier protection,
project quotas, encrypted datasets, allocation classes, vectorized
raidz, vectorized checksums, and various command line improvements.

From content, parent reply is correct. ZoL was far ahead FreeBSD's native ZFS port, that FreeBSD devs found that is better using ZoL instead.

It isn't always about actively attacking the lesser species.

For instance, bees. We don't want to hurt bees. But we've certainly done a lot of stuff that's been harmful to bee populations.

There are many other species that are endangered because of humans and their changing of the environment, too.
A combination of both. For the most part just learning in general has been good for me. But it has a positive impact on my overall mood and productivity so it helps at work too. I should also mention that it can also have a negative impact on work. Often I'm more interested in doing non-work related learnings during work time. But so far it didn't get me into trouble. I can still get enough work done to be a valuable employee (although not a top performer which I'm totally OK with). I think what I'm trying to say is that my work productivity is effected by my overall well being. I think that's true for everyone.
It must sting that the (arguably) only successful thing to come out of this America First policy is now being credited to the Biden administration.

For all the mess Biden has inherited, he also inherited a near perfect vaccine production program. The reversals issued in the first 100 days did not reverse any export bans or regulations the Trump admin put in place for the vaccine production and rollout.

LNT has been checked as far down as the statistics lets it be checked (including with animal experiments).

There's always Common Lisp using the popular SBCL implementation. It's not statically typed but you still get compiler warnings about types at compile time -- even cooler is that SBCL uses the types for assembly code optimization, so it can also guide you to write faster code with type warnings, e.g. about places where it couldn't infer the type and is forced to use a generic addition.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14780381 shows a few errors that provide typo protection, no type declaring needed

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13389287 shows the optimization warnings

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12222404 shows it can even delete unused code thanks to type inference

There's also a handful of attempts to bring stricter type checking guarantees on top as a library, but I haven't experimented with those. I'm very much in the crowd that doesn't find static types very valuable (apart from aiding performance) even for multi-million-line projects, but if I can get a few non-strict warnings like SBCL gives, that's a nice bonus, much like running a concurrent linter for extra warnings in <any lang>.

I liked Clojure a lot, but fell out of love once I realized how much it's still missing from the Common Lisp it was inspired from (non-bonkers OOP, condition system, and reader macros being the biggest to me), and also how its pervasive laziness is something I'd rather opt in to than vice versa. Some people feel the same about its immutability-by-default structures, I don't mind either way. (e.g. I can opt in to them in CL, that's fine, and Clojure's ways of opting out of them aren't bad either.)

I fail to understand what you wanna say.
Waiver is a euphemism that implies the states discussing this own the patents. It would more accurately be described as a confiscation. It also seems like the best way to ensure the next pandemic doesn’t get a vaccine.
With all due respect to Stephen Hawking and Niel deGrasse Tyson, the reason humans fight other humans for resources is that we all live in the same resource-constrained environment, and we have developed various cultural and religious imperatives which prefer hegemony, exploitation and colonization over cooperation.

But resources are abundant in space, and there's nothing that can be found on Earth (barring life, specifically) that can't be found in orders of magnitude greater quantities elsewhere. It's like our entire solar system is a buffet but we're the only dish with flies buzzing it. If you're looking for a meal, you wouldn't even bother with that.

I've never fully committed and built a solo product, so take what I say with a large pinch of salt, but from what I understand asking your friends "would you buy this" is supposedly a notoriously poor metric for market fit.

That was my assumption, too. But it's taken the work out of it. You no longer need to think about the card you're making. You probably just click a few times and poof, there's a card.

I'm absolutely convinced that Tor was compromised around late 2012 or early 2013. It used to be the wild west on steroids. You could find deviant material everywhere and had to do no digging. Then the dominoes started falling around the time of the Silk Road shutdown. Hosting companies, hidden wiki's linking to twisted stuff, video sites, bomb-making sites, drug sites all shut down in swift succession.

My experience convinced me that any network that advertises itself as anonymous and is actually anonymous will swiftly be filled with deviant material. That will be my litmus test for anonymous networks going forward.
Very similar thing plays out in MOBAs. CC is always powerful because it removes agency. Getting killed with no counter isn’t fun. Playing against a ton of healers isn’t fun. Yet for all those things in combination it’s a lot better than a counterstrike-like experience of whoever sees the pixel first wins.

Having a mechanic that forces fights during inopportune times helps, that’s why I tend to like Mobas with creeps and side objectives. That’s something that OW could add that might force a less “everyone push down mid” mentality.

TRP concepts I find quite good taken as a whole

[...]

At its core, TRP says to put yourself together and
everything else will follow, but the everything else
is NOT suppose to be your goal.

Some of the ideas there like AWALT are toxic when
taken literally

Is https://www.reddit.com/r/TheRedPill/ ("The official subreddit of TRP.RED") representative of the TRP community?

I'm not asking that facetiously. Sometimes an online forum, official or no, is not an accurate representation of a community as a whole.

Anyway, if it is an accurate representation, I would not describe TRP concepts as "good taken as a whole." The vast majority of top-voted posts are super explicitly sexist: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheRedPill/top/

Some of the ideas there like AWALT [All Women Are Like That]

Based on what I am seeing, the sexist stuff is not just like, a regrettable undercurrent in an otherwise-helpful self help forum. I mean, it's kind of infused into everything there.

I would most certainly agree with the "get your shit together" elements of TRP, at least. And while I wouldn't be bold enough to call stoicism the one true way, there's a strong stoic aspect to TRP thought and that's generally how I roll. However, that's not some kind of unique TRP concept and there's no real reason to turn to TRP for it unless you really require your stoicism to have a heavy dose of toxic sexism.

> Rising the wages across the board raises prices sooner or later.

Does it actually have to though? If a company is still profitable it doesn't actually have to raise its prices just because its profits go down.
This looks like something Common Lisp does better, however I have too little Clojure experience to compare. CL (and SBCL in particular) does "good enough" static type checks, it throws warning at compile time (when we compile one function with a keystroke). We can also precise our function types gradually. It isn't a HM type system (Coalton[1] could be it) but it's already great (compared to no compile-time types at all).

Oh, about interactive development: that's sure, CL shines here. Objects get updated (lazily) after a class change, we can install Quicklisp libraries without restarting the image, etc. It's very smooth.
