Specifically in container space, when I chatted with other developers regarding reasons of choosing Alpine, the top one answer is the size of the base image comparing to other popular Linux distro images like Ubuntu or Debian. Smaller size => faster rollout + minimal CVE exposure, right? What I feel fundamentally wrong about this is, in many cases they probably shouldn't put a full OS in a container in the first place. Take Google's distroless as an example, if you only put necessary stuff in your container, even a debian based image can be reasonably small enough that you never need to worry about image size.

Also, dealing with DNS issues in Alpine based containers (which was caused by musl implementation, iirc) was one of my biggest nightmare at work. Just search for "Alpine+DNS" on Google and you can see what a mess it had brought.

That isn't why Warp was discontinued. (My last change to Warp was 7 years ago.) Even with my C code, it's unsurprising to have to update a few things after 7 years.

Why are you blaming democrats for civil asset forfeiture in 2008 in California? Arnold was governor at the time, he must have approved the executive action that consisted of the seizure.

Edit: not to mention that it was a Democrat, John Chiang, that took on the task of attempting to return the property. I'm not trying to paint democrats as good guys, but I don't know how this event could be used to paint them as bad.
Inflationary cryptocurrency and domain identity: A recipe for a social network
Devil's advocate here. The DNS root servers worked, but don't quite feel up to speed with regulations. AFAIU, the root servers still receive FQDN and IP, which is not GDPR-friendly and technically unnecessary.

Also, I'm not sure what happens if a crazy US president decided to disrupt .eu.

While regulating root DNS servers might be undesirable now, it sure feels like the right moment to start the conversation.
Right!

That's as much as we can manage with chimpanzees - our immediate relatives, who we have physical contact with.

Humans scarcely care how other earth-bound species communicate enough to identify it as communication - how do insects and plants and fungi communicate? What information is whale song (mammal) transmitting? Is the 52 Hz whale communicating, or not?

Alien communication will look far more different even than that.
Devices aren't life, but they're part of ones life. Computers/tech are books, pen, paper, mail, the telephone, TV, radio, music - it is culture. It's the vehicle to connect people to all of that. Dehumanizing it won't do much to help people stay connected to humanity.

I'm not saying it's easy, i've had some epic battles with my kids in how they handle/navigate the complex social structures around technology in the palms of their hands - but i certainly don't think taking that away does anything and may be detrimental.

Society is all of us... There isn't a single one of us that didn't stay up all night reading a book, watching a movie, talking on the phone, writing a letter, sending "beeper" texts out, texting on smart beepers, getting on BBSs, connecting to internet, having phones, then text messages and so on and so forth. It's all connectedness and culture we've always had, but now more readily available.

Help your children navigate it, grow in it and thrive in it. Be there to keep it safe.

Civil forfeiture has its origins in customs law where a ship transporting contraband would be seized along with its contents. This was because in the 1600's to 1800's it wasn't feasible to track down and punish the owners of the goods/ship in a foreign country assuming you could even figure that out.

Of course the practice got expanded to contexts and situations that have nothing to do with smuggling because government will use any excuse to expand its powers.

This seems hardly surprising. Publicly fact-checking someone makes them feel vulnerable and potentially stupid, so if they are not a person with integrity or humility, of course they are going to double down and get defensive. This is always been the case.

It doesn't help that we choose to ride these people for years and never let them forget about their mistakes, so much so that some mistakes can be a death sentence for your future career. So what incentive is there to admit that they made a mistake?

That depends on the size of your other investments. If the property is worth $100,000 and your total assets are $1,000,000 with the rest in stocks, that one property is a reasonable level of diversification. If you already have a house worth $500,000 then taking money out of stocks to buy the rental is a bad investment. The above are but two very simplified examples. You need to figure out what is correct for your situation though - there is no one size fits all.

I know people that feel that way about it. I can't argue, I also had some really great pairing sessions where I learned a lot. On balance though, it was not what I wanted out of programming.

I loath FB Messenger Kids. Because other kids have it, there's huge peer pressure for my kids to use it. I either have to be the bad parent and isolate my kids from their friends, or give in and start them down the path of getting conditioned to use FB products.

But PowerShell feels so clunky and slow to me (disclosure: I'm used to Linux). If you want object-oriented automation tools, Python works much better on Linux. Granted, it's not a shell, but if we're talking automation, then it doesn't really matter.

I think the big issue for Windows is that most "admins" aren't in the habit of automating things, or at most they'll write a basic bat file. They still expect to click around their GUIs, so they'll be fairly reticent to install the Windows Server Core version [0]. "To be able to intervene in case something happens". The main issue with this is that they often aren't aware of possibilities offered only via PowerShell[1]. There's also the issue that when they look things over in the GUI, they won't see the configuration that's only visible through PowerShell.

---

[0] Windows Server Core comes without a GUI, but it can be managed remotely with the usual tools. However, not all server roles work on it. Remote Desktop Gateway is one such example, even though it doesn't have any "desktop" functionality.

[1] For example setting up split-view DNS. This is possible since Windows 2016, but only via PowerShell, and it's impossible to know from the GUI that it's activated. Also, this configuration doesn't replicate through ActiveDirectory.

I agree that this technique of writing my own C compiler isn't going to work so well with C++:

1. Even though I have written a C++ compiler, it's a C++98 compiler and C++, like the Winchester House, accretes new features constantly, meaning keeping it up to date is impractical.

2. C++ semantics are different enough from D that it is impractical to mechanically map C++ to D. You can do bits and pieces, and dpp does that, but seamlessly doing the bulk of it isn't going to work. (C can be mapped nearly 100% to D.)

dpp uses libclang to try and map what it can to D.
All of the modern GUI is just a skin over powershell. Most server functionality/configuration isn't exposed through the GUI.

> I'm always surprised that enormous markets existed before nation states, animal husbandry, before metallurgy, and even before agriculture itself. People were trading obsidian or other resources back into the stone age.

It is important to note that, to-date, our analysis has identified:

This guy commits lots of low level crimes. Something off about him. Like just not capable of making good decisions.
This is only approximately true in parts of the middle east and mediterranean basin. It's very much not true in the rest of the world. Even in Europe, foragers and agriculturists lived in reasonably close proximity for thousands of years and yes, modern Europeans are related to both.
Mac generation? Maybe if you mean those whose first computing experience was with microcomputers in the 80s. Every single program I used for the first ~14 years (1984 to 1998, when I first used Linux) of my computing experience was proprietary.
In my experience, even MSIs can be run from the command line, but the amount of effort required to look this up and write a clean script is definitely way more than the equivalent Linux sysadmin task because Windows is just not expecting users to work this way at all.

My gripe with installing things on Linux is that every project assumes install means “build from source”, and it’s often annoyingly hard to find the exact yum/apt-get name for something (do I need a PPA? is the name thing, libthing, libthing-dev, libthing2, or something else?) But this is a much smaller issue than anything I run into with Windows Server.
IMO (and I'd bet money that) 1000 years ago, if your village was good at <insert tradition> you knew clearly that it was the best choice at the time, and deviating from that was a life-or-death risk. Those who still felt like it left, they walked away, explored, died a lonely death or made it to a new place and came back, some became merchants.. or else.

I still hold the contrast made the decision clearer, if you don't have the vision or grit to go against your local environment then it's simply better for you to follow it, at least it works.
>...I didn't say it wasn't a problem, but 2010 is always chosen specifically because of Madoff. Madoff also shows why that burglary comparison is meaningless.

The article addresses this issue:

>..."In a given year, one or two high-dollar cases may produce unusually large amounts of money — with a portion going back to victims — thereby telling a noisy story of year-to-year activity levels," the Institute for Justice explains. A big chunk of that 2014 deposit, for instance, was the $1.7 billion Bernie Madoff judgment, most of which flowed back to the victims.

>For that reason, the net assets of the funds are usually seen as a more stable indicator — those numbers show how much money is left over in the funds each year after the federal government takes care of various obligations, like payments to victims. Since this number can reflect monies taken over multiple calendar years, it's less comparable to the annual burglary statistics.
Still, even this more stable indicator hit $4.5 billion in 2014, according to the Institute for Justice — higher again than the burglary losses that year.

>...Also burglaries are basically never justified, but sometimes civil forfeitures are justified.

Criminal forfeitures are done after someone has been convicted and are justified. Civil forfeitures on the other hand are done before anyone has been convicted and the victim doesn't get free legal representation and is assumed guilty until proven innocent. Police agencies have to be funded, but it shouldn't be done by stealing from the public.
The US government is no longer in control of the root servers, and even if it were, I doubt .eu would be at the top of the target list.

There's lots of things to not like about big pharma. How much money has big pharama spent on lobbying congress to keep certain plants scheduled so they can maintain their stockholders? The stories on big pharma and their role in the opioid crisis, stories on big pharma pricing structures that are not the same depending on who/where you are even though there's no difference in the pill. The agressive nature of pill pushing (even non-opiods) on doctors. The aggressive nature of advertising to desperate patients to pressure their doctors to prescribe medication that won't actually help but may worsen situations.
Yet, still no official support for running on Apple Silicon Macs on stable channel after almost a year since introducing the DTK for transitioning to the new architecture.

To use a fairly broad brush and a potentially overdramatic example, starving an extrovert of contact with others is tantamount to torture. I know introverts don't understand this on a fundamental level, but the only times I've ever even vaguely considered harming myself are when I was in forced isolation for long periods of time.

To know that there are opportunities to socialize and grow my friendships, and those opportunities are being intentionally and needlessly withheld from me as some kind of "character growth" would evoke a kind of primal rage that would have caused me permanent harm as a child.

I'm extremely grateful my parents saw the value of learning how to build and maintain relationships, and I wouldn't dream of taking that away from my children, or any other children I somehow had supervision over.
