Now we need an analog of Shannon in social sciences to offer a Theory of Meaning. Then perhaps a century or so where there are still incompatibilities with the theory of information that prevent a bigger picture from emerging, and eventually an all-encompassing theory ushering humanity into an Era of Meaning.

Ted Chiang could probably write a plausible future with that as a writing prompt.
Java EE is incredibly stable and backwards compatible, but it might not have all that you're looking for in a framework.
Anecdotal... my peers (upper middle-class in the US) generally realize the taxes they pay fund all the stuff we rely upon to stay upper middle-class. Good public schools, roads, etc. We just want the rich to pay their fair share too.

Or, if you're a jaded cynic, the rich are mostly just greedy sociopaths. They want to minimize their own tax burden and give zero fucks about the betterment of society. They got theirs, screw everybody else.
I have a clip for a regular xbox-style controller (SteelSeries duo) and I gotta say the top-heavy weight is extremely awkward, and my phone is pretty small (pixel 4a).

Exactly, because if you are opressed that is fantastic excuse for not taking responsibility. And they don’t care about people who are really oppressed.
How sure are you that the 61 character limit won’t change in some future DNS improvements? People used to think TLDs would only ever be up to 3 characters long.

More importantly, what problem is this even trying to solve? Someone accidentally typing a 300 character domain? If they are intentionally feeding you gibberish they’ll just give you more realistic looking gibberish.
yes, since this works for most useless projects, I know a developer that uses gitlab for this purpose.

I suspect it's the other way - they have his prints on file already from some previous arrest, and the image linked the incriminating EncroChat account to his real identity through the data already on file.

> One of the fundamental differences between macOS and Windows is the menu bar. There's only one at a time, and it belongs to the program which has the focus. A corollary of this is that you don't need a window to have a program.

The core difference is that macOS is (originally) document-oriented. You could care less if an app is opened or not, window == document, whereas on Windows, window == program.

Each progressively grew into the direction of the other (e.g Finder progressively losing spatial features and Explorer gaining them, MDI interfaces on macOS vs the win7 taskbar being actually more of a Dock...)
It is how it was designed to work, to an extent. The Dutch are very deliberately allowing foreign corporations to negotiate their corp tax rate with them, which benefits the Dutch and no one else. It's also a regressive tax
There will always be a small subset of people that get mad at what you do, that doesnt mean you shouldnt try to be inclusive in what youre doing.

Your comment itself is just another version of someone who wants to be outraged.
You are right, under the assumption of anonymity, that alternative does not work. Prints on file for a different reason, such as a prior conviction, would give you an ID.

According to a link from the article, however, EncroChat was cracked last year. Stewart was presumably not one of those arrested at that time, which implies that either this crack did not yield enough information to ID him, or did not yield enough evidence to proceed against him. The former case could be solved if his prints were on file, and in the latter case, his prints might have led to additional evidence which had previously not been attributed to him.

As the article says he was identified by his prints, the former seems much more likely.

The notation really isn't as bad as it originally looks, trust me. I was in the same boat recently, but after cracking open TAPL, on page 26 you basically get all the notation you need for the rest of the book.

Agree. Especially if you can control the image quality, background, etc, this can be done with less fancy methods. Heck, they probably don’t even need an image based solution. They could have also used mostly mechanical machines like how coin counters/sorters work, or used a bigger version of their old counting plate method but with detectors in each slot.
I don’t agree with a lot of this post but I think it does a good job pointing out that porting a library from ecosystem A to ecosystem B is not always a good idea. A good API design in one language can be a horrible one in another.

Python doesn’t expect you to share references to things - it’s just that the API that was being copied follows an imperative style that mutates objects.

The article answers your question: A prominent fact-checking organization examined the document. You can then question the fact-checking organization, and eventually nobody can say anything.

Housing evaluations are very straight forward -- the market is what decides the price. Unless your house is something exotic like a castle or something. Every year the city or region you live in has a process to evaluate this value, and then asks you to pay a tax based on this. Generally if you feel the taxation is unfair, you can just sell the house -- if it doubled in value from the year before, according to the market, you'll probably be happy to pocket that profit. Otherwise property taxes are just how it goes when you're a house owner. Also you normally have a year to pay the tax, so there is lots of time to make a decision.

>It’s even worse in the Microsoft world

One of the reasons I stopped using Windows was the complexity pretty much forces a support contract for anything other than a toy business.

Funny how distros offering support contracts are taking linux down the same path.
It's still a great mystery to me why it seemed like the swipe keyboard (Word Flow[0]) on Windows Phone was so, so good, and yet even SwiftKey which is owned by Microsoft doesn't measure up (but SwiftKey co-existed with Word Flow...)

At this point, some seven years since I've used Windows Phone, maybe my memory isn't that accurate, but I remember the transition to using Android keyboards to be very painful.

It's interesting to see a thread where even going from Windows Phone 8.1 to 10, the predictive keyboard got worse.[1]

Nothing is perfect, but what are you referring to specifically?
Why would deep copying be difficult?

Even in Rust, the `Clone` trait produces a deep copy.

Copying only up to a specific depth in a general way is what is difficult.

I would argue that shallow copies, id est the depth being 1, are far more difficult to realize that copies of unbounded depth until a value o trait `Copy` is reached, id est a type that is purely encoded by the data it takes up on the stack and owns no further data and can thus be fully be `Clone`ed by copying it's stack bits.
They could even make people count them by hand!
Passing pointers around is a pretty common pattern. It avoids allocating memory and copying data unnecessarily. Seemed like a decent choice in the late 80's and early 90's, probably all the way up through mid-2000's. It's still fine as the default for many situations.
Why the Sad Face?
That was my thought initially too, but on further reflection, there are plenty of games that have input that's not time sensitive (or not that time sensitive) that having a built in (mediocre) controller is better than not having one and needing to put finger over the display screen for the same controls.

And you can still pair a controller. I think that maybe makes this "better than other phone devices for xcloud" at least, which is something.
Just have to figure out how to make it cost less than other energy sources.
Conflict-of-interest.

If your business model is based on artificial obsolesence and 100% of the cost of e-waste and disposal is externalized, then anything that truly encourages effective continued use of older models is directly opposed to the business model.

And while it's something to have marketable trust-building by taking some responsibility for the waste and longer life-span, that also invites people to start thinking about how bad the fundamental business model is. If you get people to actually care about this stuff, that's building demand for a different business model, something closer to Fairphone.

At this point, the only really scalable way to solve repairability and e-waste is probably to mandate it legally. Force the costs to be internalized. Require a deposit on all electronics, like some states do with bottles. Adjust the numbers at each end to actually discourage waste and to actually cover real-world recycling costs.

And figure out how to require companies to unlock unsupported devices.

It doesn't work to have one company do these things while others don't. That puts the one company at a competitive disadvantage.
This happens with me when I don't really want to learn the subject to begin with. Sometimes I think I want to know about it-- when I get in I realize I only superficially want to understand the subject. In these cases, I either move onto something else, or try and satisfy that superficial understanding to scratch that itch. As I result, I find that I am more of a generalist than a specialist in a lot of things. This comes in handy for me, but I am in awe when I find someone who had the desire to really dig into a topic.

Edit: All in all, I think it has come down to me being honest with myself about what I want to learn and why. This helps me to have realistic expectations about learning some new things.
You will never close all the loopholes. It is impossible and the real people in power don't want it. High taxes, like in most of current society, will always mostly keep the poor poor and eliminate the middle class; politicians just dress it up as redistributing money from the rich.

For the Sieve Email Filtering Language, yes. Which is not actually part of SMTP.

I agree with your sentiment overall.

Very cool. I signed up and uploaded a notebook and was impressed with the stylesheet and presentation. Right out of the box, you're making the notebook output seem more like an article that someone might want to read (less distrinction between code blocks and markdown blocks).

Naive question: in Python, isn't this solved by .copy and .deepcopy if you really have to get a copy of an object rather than create a new instance of something? I'm curious where the bad API design is, unless you're saying that Python's assignment behavior itself is bad and everything should be immutable by default.

That's great to hear! The issue I take with your story is not that you got help, but that a government mandated retirement program should never have been retrofitted to provide socialized health care. It is an absolutely terrible design.

Observations on Internet Scammers and Frauds
Sorry, out of the loop; what comment?
It’s strange that you recognize new stable equilibriums emerging as unanticipated consequences of global capital liberalization but you advocate for trying to maintain a new unstable equilibrium instead of thinking about viable strategies that may work. As a piece of advice, if your solution requires 100% compliance by random nations in order for you to tax your own citizens/corporations, then your solution is squarely in the “hopes and dreams” bucket and I’d think at this point we had enough of that.

Instead, ask yourself why you can move funds so easily across borders and decide whether allowing these capital flows is a good idea or not. The inevitable cost of allowing them is tax arbitrage but it’s not close to the biggest cost - financial instability, trade deficits, a shrinking middle class and deindustrialization are much bigger costs, and are equally inevitable once you allow these cross border capital flows.
