Open SO, choose any popular tag and just wait. In a hour you will see a dozen of "do homework for me", "what's wrong with my code" and "explain this very basic thing to me eli5".

It's so sad to see you receiving hate comments for a simple, completely unrelated comment.

Rest assured, not all people think that way.

When an Islamic terrorist group deliverately uses human shields of women and children, and they get killed, the blame falls on that terrorist group. Not on Israel.

And your comment was unrelated, you shouldn't have faced the hate you faced.

Funny how a similar comment aimed at a Chinese person for treatment of Uighurs will be anti-Asian hate speech.

Serious question. How much of this is due to “move fast and break things” and incompetence as opposed to discrimination and biases caused by white people?

I keep hearing the narrative in podcasts that this is an issue caused by having white people be involved in tech, but I’ve seen many cases where developers just ship something out and expect the users to do testing.
While Level 3, as currently implemented by some APIs, is a cargo-culted version of Fielding's idea of HATEOAS, Level 1 and 2 of the model have some usefulness for some types of APIs.

What you get by implementing what is called a "RESTful API" nowadays is something that is very different from the original concept of REST, but is still useful to some applications, over plain RPC.

Let's unpack it. Fielding RESTful system as a system which implement the following constraints:

1. Follows a Client-Server model

2. Is Stateless (request-response model)

3. Indicates cacheability of responses

4. Has Uniform Interface defined by the following restrictions:

Identification of resources (URIs); Manipulation of resources through representations (media types); Self-descriptive messages; Hypermedia as the engine of application state (HATEOAS)

5. Isolates access to non-adjacent layers

6. (Optional) Supports code on demand.

Applying all the restrictions stated above, lets you immense benefits: for instance cacheability, stateless and uniform resource identification make your system easy to distribute and scale to handle large amount of traffic; self-describing messages, manipulation of resources through representations and code-on-demand let you have a system that can evolve gracefully without requiring a big bang protocol upgrade.

The half-assed "RESTful APIs" of today implement only a subset of the constraints listed above. They are always client-serves, stateless, isolate access to non-adjacent layers and implement two of the uniform interface restrictions (URIs and manipulation of resources through representations). Sometimes they also indicate cacheability. However, they do not support HATEOAS (including most of the level 3 wannabes), code-on-demand and most importantly self-describing messages.

The lack of the constraints above means our modern APIs cannot achieve some of the benefits the web browser does: most notably flexibility and open-ended evolution. But they do have some other benefits over traditional RPC systems.

I think the maturity model itself is quite useless, but the following properties are useful:

1. Correct HTTP verbs: Differentiating between PUT and POST will let your intermediaries know when the request can be retried.
2. URIs uniquely identify resources: beyond the obvious benefit (cachability), it allows for easy sharding, distribution and smart redirection by any intermediary server.

With traditional HTTP-RPC (even with a standardized protocol like gRPC or SOAP), your intermediary has to be fully aware of the RPC schema to cache or know when it can retry. If you want to add a sharding gateway you need to especially develop a customized solution. A Level 2 "RESTful API" still has all these benefits.
> This is a bit of a public secret, but quite widely researchers don't really trust articles anymore, if they ever did. Maybe some plot or dataset may give some insight and maybe some discussion has worthy information to ponder on. But mostly they're just some ads to put in a yet another funding application.

> It should be noted that there's sort of a "parallel reality" in academia behind the publication show.

So what should be the guidelines for someone who is not a researcher, but an engineer, and hopes to stay informed by reading relevant papers from a specific field. (You know the folks who should apply some of that in practice)
Having worked with GIO just yesterday I've got to say that the name GIO on it's own is not great in this modern age of the internet.

Because searching "gio menuitem" returns a lot more pizza than development docs :). Prefixing my search request with glib (which gio is a part of) solved that for me.
The type of "uint8_t << 1" being "uint8_t" would be confusing because it would always lose the top bits (unlike the current definition), but presumably the intent is to insert it into a larger bitfield or multiply by 2.

An alternative safer model called as-if-infinitely ranged integers solves this problem:

This is a nice thought but applying corporate manslaughter charges in this way within government would have a raft of unintended consequences.

The unfortunate reality is that governments have to make life and death decisions on a daily basis, so making it illegal for them to make decisions where more people will die would have a highly restrictive effect (examples below).

If a reallocation of NHS budget funding in the future causes an increase in a certain illness, could the chancellor be sued?

Could ministers be put in jail for smart motorways, where motorways have become more dangerous and cause more death in order to increase their capacity? (It was cheaper than doing a full widening)

I'm not sure your point anymore. According to Trulia that is a 11 bedroom, 10 bath, nearly 6k sq ft home. Was it switched to 9 apartments because the place fell down market as it aged or was it retrofitted because there is very little market for a single family house like that in SLO? Also are we even sure those individual apartments are truly down market? Like you said, the house still looks great from the outside. It certainly doesn't look like a "slum" like you mentioned in your first comment.
This is pretty neat, I have just finished wiring a basic RPi zero / camera / GPS / barometer setup [1] for an electric RC glider and have been wondering about real-time video. Cheap FPV systems use essentially analog TV NTSC broadcast which limits the quality quite a bit. I have been wondering if I could use off-the-shelf wifi hardware and use it with some kind of broadcast protocol instead and they do exactly that! Eager to try it out if I manage to get the right adapter.

I also considered using a USB LTE adapter and just push the video with RTMP which would make the entire setup much less complex (although with some data charges) but coverage is a bit of a problem in rural areas where I normally fly.

This comment, including the part about Europe, prompted me to research this issue a bit. I Googled 'European homelessness' and came across articles[0][1]that suggest that while there are a few cases of success in cities like Helsinki (or Salt Lake City[2]) with 'Housing First' policies, homeless is getting worse in Europe. Denmark and Finland seem to be doing well[1][3], and could serve as a model.

I'd like to learn more about if Europe overall is doing better than the United States. I couldn't find comparative numbers with solid data. Thank you for sharing your story, I am glad you found a light at the end of the tunnel.

Coming from the natural sciences, I was really surprised that reviewers get to pick what they review! Despite the deeper problems discussed above, removing this glaring bug in the system would be quite easy. If editors have to choose the reviewer assignment may be less efficient, but at least editors have to think more about who would be a good reviewer, and mostly they also know the players in their field and who may have conflicts of interest.

I agree with one of the other posters, the result of the study does not highlight a problem that the acceptance of the work is unrelated to the quality. It's more a fact of the distribution of the "quality".

Essentially if you look at review scores for a conference which has say a 40% accept rate (and this is quite similar across fields I'd imagine), you find there's 10-20% (depending on conference) of papers that are clear reject for all reviewers, then there's probably around 10%-15% of papers which are very clear rejects now the rest of the papers are very similar in scores so the cut-off becomes quite arbitrary (and depends on luck as well). This is actually well known for grant applications and a sign that there is likely not enough money in the system.

2020 reaffirmed to me that people are only interested in "their truth".

News in the U.S. became entertainment. Facts take a back seat to a strong opinion. If eyes and ears were on real news nobody would have ever cared about what is being shared on Facebook.

Long gone is the standard bar set by the Journalist's Creed [1] in 1914. To quote parts:

"I believe that the public journal is a public trust; that all connected with it are, to the full measure of their responsibility, trustees for the public; that acceptance of a lesser service than the public service is betrayal of this trust."

"I believe that suppression of the news, for any consideration other than the welfare of society, is indefensible."

"I believe that advertising, news and editorial columns should alike serve the best interests of readers; that a single standard of helpful truth and cleanness should prevail for all; that the supreme test of good journalism is the measure of its public service."

We have a number of news outlets just this week going back in time and quietly adjusting/censoring their own stories because they got some covid-19 "facts" wrong.

Truth embraces truth. Intelligence clings to intelligence.

We needed the scientific method last year. Many intellectuals were forced to hide in a figurative hole.

Yeah asciidoc is pretty slick. I wish pandoc had more love/support in the SSG world as it can handle basically every doc format known to man with ease, and even enable fancy logic with AST filters in lua scripts. Why not use md, asciidoc, rst, etc. wherever you want.

My dream setup would be something with simple file-based routing like MkDocs, all of the rendering formats and power of pandoc, and the ease of deployment and speed of a Hugo-like static binary in Go (just one exe and you're done).

There's nothing wrong in growing trees, I love trees. My point was that tree-planting initiatives for carbon capture seem incomplete if they don't address the actual capture (the stockage of the dead wood somewhere safe and inaccessible to decomposition). At that point, you realize that you don't need to wait decades for the trees to grow, you can cut them down and store them right away, letting new trees grow in their place.

Even worse, a focus on tree-planting often feels like an inconsequential feel-good movement, that deviates attention away from the real problem: that every year we are unearthing millions of years worth of captured carbon and putting it back into circulation. Growing a forest while we burn thousands of oil tankers every year is like trying to remove water from the sinking titanic with a bucket. It doesn't harm, but it gets stupidly in the way.

I don't know why you think I disagree with the idea of liberalism. I simply think if someone is a liberal, they should believe purely disagreeable speech should not have consequences; else, they are an idiot.

There are of course more complexities where speech should result in consequences, but in general, if someone says something than another otherwise unrelated person simply disagrees with, the speaker should not have their relationship with their friends, family, employer, customers, businesses they use, etc harmed. This should be enforced sometimes by law, and sometimes by culture, depending on the rights in play in the particular situation, as you outlined above.

Your info is out of date - that's exactly what's happening.

One police officer dealing with homeless in Portland or Seattle recently said 100% of the people he dealt with were on drugs and living in tents.

In SF, rents are so high that you won't be "transiently homeless" - you're priced out of the market without already having a pretty good job.
There is an assumption you're making that is missing from your analysis. Yes, it does seem likely that an abuser or what have you will be highly incentivized to defend themselves, more so than you'd expect people to falsely accuse people. What is in question is how likely you think someone being an actual abuser/creep/etc is in the first place. You're not comparing apples to apples.

Because effectively you are saying that this kind of bad behavior is more likely than the bad behavior where one person would lie about another. And it is not clear why you think one type of antisocial behavior is more common. People lie every day, oftentimes to their own detriment. Likewise people are creeps every day, again often to their detriment. I think it is far from clear at this point which behavior is more common.
It's extremely easy to hurt yourself with audio, it almost feels like cheating. Just regular audio work provides plenty of opportunities to do that. Here's a random note from Supercollider, a platform for audio synthesis [1]:

I would also argue that with the increased importance of the (mostly) commercial "high-impact" journals this has become worse. I know that some of the professional (non-expert) editors of these journals specifically look at the citation counts of authors before accepting to send them out to review, because their main aim is to get people reading the articles, not necessarily good science.
