> If he was so dangerous and a dictator, why did he step down!?

Did he? When? He had endless court battles going, he was getting shot down in state after state after state but endlessly starting new litigations.

When did we ever feel like a real transition was ever going to be allowed to happen? How many days after January 6th? How many days before January 20th? When if ever did Biden's people get allowed into the White House, when did a transition actually start if ever?

I 100% agree with parent, the rhetoric is absolutely warranted. Truth matters. What's happening has been deeply deeply anti-democratic, has been ardently fascist. Factually fascist. There's a lot of situations where we need to try to come together. A wide part of the American political spectrum has been one of snakes & liars for my entire life & truth & democracy has fallen too far down their ladder of concerns to be engagable with honestly. At this point, civilization's mandate to defend ourselves against this persistent harm is paramount. We must prioritize seeing the situation real-ly over trying to build bridges, for, so far, it seems like a radical extremist element only wants to burn every bridge they can & incite zeal & anger & violence.
They probably just don't want a repeat of the mis-steps that characterized early covid response. Early information changed a lot and resulted in distrust, and poor adherence to recommended measures. Rolling back precautionary measures is a one time thing. They don't get to say "hey we messed up, put those masks back on" because nobody will comply. It just makes sense to come up with a sure consensus before natural immunity is bandied about.

The lab leak theory is still not proven. Collected evidence over time points to it being more likely. The "narrative" was there early on, but attacking China as leverage in a trade war surely cemented any desire to hide their own faults. What did we stand to gain by pointing fingers without proof or even a preponderance of evidence? Even now is it likely to lead to reform in virus and gain of function research?
Any idea how you can mute/ opt out of topics like politics? Many of my trending topics are about politics even when I do not follow people around politics, have blocked words like Trump, Boris Johnson, and corresponding local variations, tell twitter I am 'not interested in this', and actively modify my twitter 'interests' once in a while.

OTOH it is the reason I moved to iOS. Privacy is important, but so is having full access to your own data. You don’t get that on Android these days without rooting - adb backup barely works and more than half of apps opt out
Firstly, thanks for providing an explicit criticism to the argument. It's more helpful than a dismissal (or an inexplicable downvote), and it's appreciated.

As I see it, the subject of the OP, and this broadly this thread, is about the downsides of using SPAs (e.g., React) vs SSR for applications that require server-side persistence. Of course, pre-processing (or display post-processing) client-side makes a lot of sense. Such client-side offloading doesn't require an SPA, and also it can be part of an SSR driven application (as you are doing) using vanilla JS. So the distinction here between SPA and SSR is moot.

The cycle of data retrieval -> user transformation -> data persistence to server, is where SPAs vs SSR have actual tradeoffs. And this, I believe, is what zozbot234 was alluding to. As for Hadoop, I don't personally know how that fits into modern web apps.
> defend the harm their software does to society all over town

I accept there are people who feel that an argument in defence of certain types of software is in bad faith, and an argument made deliberately to hurt and exclude others.

It’s not much of a leap, given that harm obviously exists to many in society, and software isn’t helping, or at least that some people get much more benefit from it than others.

However, not everyone believes that software harms people. Not everyone believes that that harm is deliberate. Not everyone believes that anything can be done, and even if they do it’s probable that they have differing ideas on what is to be done.

I get that when people see problems, and they see others ignoring those problems, or arguing with them, that they feel that those other are being callous, cruel and disrespectful. As the saying goes, if you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem.

I sympathise, but I can’t agree. There are so many solutions to the world’s problems and so few who agree on any of them. I can’t just assume that everyone who adopts a contrary position is deliberately being cruel, deliberately acting out of selfishness or deliberately acting to exclude and suppress other views.
Oh so on Android the location services system provides non-anonymized info to G?
Nope. It 100% came from Counter-strike. There was a typo in one of the messages and that's how it got famous.
NAT enables dogshit endpoint security, yes, but that's the problem. Without NAT as a crutch, endpoint firewalls and service security wouldn't suck. Compared to other feats of security engineering the industry has undertaken in order to make centralized cloud services happen, namely JavaScript and the ability to safely run untrusted code from the nastiest corners of the internet at high performance, this would be downright trivial. It just never happened because we had NAT.
Agree totally. My experience with NVim 0.5, which is what most configs require, was errors and instability all over the place. I also don't like telescope which froze nvim on me completely.

Eh. "Friend" in English just isn't a good translation, it should be something like "BFF". You aren't expected to have 50 friends in Slavic countries because it would be too much of an investment and in English people call others friend after they waited together for 20 minutes at a train station.

But the concept exists, it's just a different word.

"Science" gets thrown around a ton to refer to about 5 billion different things. There's the scientific philosophy; the results of an experiment; the consensus of a peergroup; the entirety of all disciplines that require consistently, repeatable evidence before thinking of making a claim; the entirety of all disciplines that think one-off but repeatable in theory evidence is a-ok; baking soda volcanoes...

Some other really weird ones: engineering, design, art, math

And my favorite: programming

I generally find conflating any two of these different things to be problematic enough that "science" is a useless word.

I think there's two parts to this: first, if you know your input meets certain constraints, then there's no benefit to over-complicating the solution. Second, this is a teaching tool. It makes sense to start simply and save the harder version for later.
This is also why you never want your DNA to end up where it can be used for false accusations against you. Lab work isn't trustworthy against mistakes.

Modesty is a very personal preference. I imagine a scientist with a Nobel Prize and world renown is comfortable with something like this. And not much can go terribly wrong with a computing cluster. It may have bugs I guess? Or the whole building could catch fire? Not really reasons to weigh too heavily.
Please note that a field that "satisfying the fundamental theorem of algebra" is not really a thing. The term you're looking for is algebraically complete field. The fundamental theorem of algebra states that the complex numbers are algebraically complete.

Also note that every algebraically complete field is infinite. So the finite fields used in CS applications such as cryptography are never algebraically complete.

There is an artificial universal sign language used at deaf conventions. It isn’t particularly popular or well known (to fluency) though.

Most deaf people that know separate sign systems or sign languages will figure out ways to communicate across those language barriers at extreme speed. They are unmatchable charade experts.

I have seen deaf people from different continents have entire conversations in pidgin they bridge together over a few minutes.

ASL is perhaps more universal than English in one way. Most missionaries that established ASL Brought it with them as their primary teaching tool to deaf children.

So from Jamaica to Ghanna, Canada, many places in Africa, there will be many locations that sign a local variant of ASL. Perhaps maintaining 50-60% of the parent sign language.

ASL’s parent sign language is French, it is one of the older sign language and so has maintained less of its French roots, but we still use French twos and threes in our signed numbering system.

Anecdotally, I've known at least three people who have caught Covid twice during the pandemic. This runs contrary to your statement that natural immunity "is strong and long lasting". Rather, it is a forgetful, fickle thing to rely upon. Get vaccinated.

Yes, definitely. I was replying to:

I do think the Apple execution and hardware is generally better, but really I was just comparing the benefits of wearing a smart watch vs. not wearing one.

When rising tides can lift all boats, individualists are effectively cannonballs.
Remember that across the globe, there are many complex political affiliations. As it turns out, the governments that tend to be more authoritarian, such as India, the U.K., or the U.S. during the last cycle, denied the efficacy of wearing masks or getting vaccinated. Boris Johnson went as far as to suggest he get Covid on stage with the cameras rolling, to show the dangers were exaggerated. Now he's well on his way to early retirement, thanks to the damage it's done.
None of those people were saved by the EKG or O2 features (other than that one person noticed a slow heartbeat while playing with the EKG feature). They are talking about the "fall detection feature, heart rate notifications, exercise tracking and even the ability to make a call from your wrist."

>...but the real problem is that young people believe that the world should be a fairer place?

A common argument with this statement is that a lot of the behavior coming out of all of this doesn't align with the sentiment.

As mentioned in the article and found elsewhere are many instances where people have been "called-out" or "canceled" followed by incessant attempts to cause harm such as contacting the university at which they were just accepted to ultimately be rejected; pressuring their employer until they're fired; "doxing"[0] on social media, leading to, among other things, death threats, obscene messages, having a SWAT team arrive at their home; etc. These actions leave little room for an opportunity to hear their story or for them to make their statement of apology or be given time to adjust their behavior. These people aren't just being made aware of their otherwise inappropriate behavior, they're having the rest of their lives ruined. Some folks don't think that's fair and I have a hard time disagreeing with them.

I often see examples here on this message board of people being shut out of conversation by being flagged or down-voted to such an extent their message is no longer readable (without further action). This same behavior is seen in "real life" when people aren't given the opportunity speak or defend themselves in the proverbial public square.

I share the desire for a more fair and cohesive society. It's because of that it upsets me to see this otherwise unfair behavior potentially impeding progress toward that goal.

I think Gab and Parler should face no legal sanction for hosting content that is legal but awful. But people critical of that also have freedom of speech, and everybody involved has freedom of association. Telling Gab's vendors that maybe they should stop helping Nazis is just as much "in accordance with US laws" as anything on Gab, so I don't see on what grounds you could object to it.
Yes, sort of like the old chestnut "Women earn 70% of what men do" It's ideological marketing
I don't think that's true at all. ECC wasn't designed specifically with this attack in mind, and it's still a pretty effective mitigation.

There's nothing defective about RAM, it's never going to be the case that errors won't happen, it's just that before we were worried about heat and radiation and now we have to worry about attackers too.

If you want fast Ruby it seems Crystal is your only option. Ruby is an interpreted language released in 1996 for scripting. Why are we surprised when attempts to shoe-horn it into something else (Ruby 3.0, JRuby, Truffle Ruby) fall flat?

There's a rule in linguistics, that the more often a word is used, the shorter it will be -- almost like Huffman coding.

In that light, comparing the one-syllable English "Why?" to the three-syllable Russian "почему?" says something about the safety of asking questions in different countries.

> But in no way can this type of rhetoric - and the violence it intentionally stokes - be seen as the only remaining possibility.

I think if you don't see how it's the only remaining possibility, then you might be lacking empathy.

Imagine getting insulted by someone and when you want to verbally defend yourself, you can't because a mob of people don't let you speak. This happens again and again... what are your options in the moment? I think it would be either keep getting verbally assaulted, or try to somehow defend yourself. Now imagine that when you start giving out verbal warnings that you will physically defend yourself, the other person uses that as justification to continue the verbal assault. At that point, it's almost like both parties want to fight. One is provoking, the other is ready for it.

I want to work at the graph level, not the text level. My belief is that we could avoid a lot of artificial complexity and yak shaving around parsers, name resolution, and particularly collaboration/version control if we worked at this higher level.
ECC is at best a temporary workaround, and at worst an implicit approval of the creation of defective products. It's purpose is to prevent transient bitflips due to cosmic rays and such, not consistently reproducible errors from what is otherwise perfectly normal operation.

Plus you can detect attack attempts as the memory controller will report increased error rates.

Now you've turned specific access patterns into "attack attempts", and by discriminating against them as such, entirely destroyed a fundamental part of general-purpose computing. What's next, CPUs that are only guaranteed to do certain operations correctly, and everything else is considered an "attack"? That is NOT a direction that we should be heading. Hell fucking no!!!

RAM should always hold what was last written to it, under all conditions of software accesses. To expect or imply that anything less is acceptable, is to destroy one of the foundations on which general-purpose computing is built.

Where manufacturers are trying to sell 2-4x the capacity with 1/4 to 1/16th of the endurance? That's a rant for another thread...

We know how to solve this problem.

This problem didn't exist 15 years ago. It only got created because the RAM companies have forsaken correctness, and somehow managed to convince everyone else that it's not their own fault.
> Ruby is an interpreted language released in 1996 for scripting. Why are we surprised when attempts to shoe-horn it into something else (Ruby 3.0, JRuby, Truffle Ruby) fall flat?

Because Lua (1993) and JavaScript (1995) can be very fast.
What's telling in your response, is that you didn't refute what I said; with enough of a verbal altercation, violence is inevitable and justified. Everyone should be free to express their opinions without the threat of violence. To say that people do not have a choice, in this country, is farcical. The more I can ridicule people who threaten violence when their demands aren't met, the happier I will be.
