You keep saying authoritarian a lot but you don't seen to have any logical arguments on why the proposed solution is bad. How on earth is preventing users from making 1000s of bots and influencing the public consensus bad for the democracy? I don't work for government. I don't want random people with 1000sof bots to manipulate the people around me and turn the democracy into a shitshow. I don't know how the tech companies will do it. But there should be only 1 account per person. 1 persons voice should not be worth 1000 times the voice of other people. That is not democracy.

It's incredible to me just how quickly "not wanting to live under house arrest" has become a "freedumb", and sad how quickly people are willing to throw away hard-fought liberties in the name of supposed public safety.

To briefly address your point - how did India, which certainly did not wear masks, distance, stay at home, or avoid crowded spots, only just have their "second wave" (such as it is, as it is very hard to find any actual data instead of emotionally-appealing news headlines and pictures), when countries that largely followed the rules (like the one I live in) had one over the winter?

What happened to South Korea, once lauded as the example of what can happen if everyone would just wear a mask?

There is very little in the way of a clear indicator that one approach is better than another.
Some sources e.g. http://www.fao.org/world-banana-forum/projects/good-practice... assert that ~2/3 of banana GHG footprint is caused by transportation and storage, including things like refrigeration on ship.

It's probably still more efficient (both money-wise and GHG-wise) than growing bananas locally in UK; now that would need a lot of extra energy; but on the other hand it would be more efficient to eat food that normally grows locally in your climate instead of bananas.

If you are powering off a very old system that spends most of its life powered on, don't let the hard drives or power supply cool down. Do your best to keep your work as brief as possible and get the thing turned back on before it assumes room temperature. These components tend to run the hottest, you can have cold solder joints contract and stop making contact when they cool down.

Also check any socketed chips and make sure they are fully seated. Chip creep happens when frequently thermal-cycled boards cause the IC's to slowly lift themselves out of their own sockets.

HotSpot was not the mainstream JVM
I see now its been opensourced, and apparently, np longer in active development, and I dont know how much of it made it into mainstream Java

Java is one of the top 3-5 most popular languages, and have huge backing

So its understandable that people found a way to make it fast, and honeslty, i dont really know how much effort does this require, but it seems from your example, it less than what C++ need

This all in all, seem counter intuitive, if Java is really as fast as C++, why is it that mainstream knowledge suggest otherwise

Either, your example is hiding something, or there is other reasons people still use C++ when they need high performance

D was meant to replace C++ not be a fast Java like language, I would argue, it achieved neither

D wanted to be a mainstream language, this is why the adopted the C/C++/Java style of programming, and again they didnt achieve this objective

D is not instinct, it still have a small dedicate user base, I just wholeheartedly think, today, you have far better options: Rust, Go, OCaml , C# , Kotlin
I mean, if I I'm understanding what you mean by this, it just feels too much by productivity. Writing a service to read from and endpoint and calculate some probabilities and output some action, that's just work. It's not going to make me a better or worse programmer. Teaching someone bash-fu, helping programmers remember flags for grep or curl, these are useful skills that could be gamified just the same as bot/agent logic.

I think too that these games always kinda fall into a state machine pattern. I don't need the expressiveness of javascript, the bot will end up being a state machine with different states, and it'll just churn through it's inputs. It's always kinda of the same ultimate end pattern.
So it's a tossup: either Autopilot will save you or kill you.
You would need to use zero knowledge crypto on both sides so the state doesn't know what platforms you're subscribed to, and the platform doesn't know your real identity (or what other users you have, only that you're below the limit).

It's hard but it shouldn't be impossible.
I was wondering that myself. Here's an Ajax example: https://github.com/purescript-concur/purescript-concur-react...

It could use some type signatures, but it makes sense.

As for managing state, my understanding of the Elm Architecture is that there is one "global" state data structure, and various parts of it are handed down from parent to child. So my question would be the opposite of yours: what if I want local state? Is that possible? There are situations where some toggle being on or off isn't very important and keeping track of it in a global data structure is burdensome

German people demand a safe permanent solution simply because time has shown over and over again that nothing is as permanent as an unsafe "temporary" solution that ends up being permanent because of inertia, budget cuts, insolvencies or whatever.

It's the same as with tech debt, with the difference that your average startup's tech debt can't be turned into a dirty bomb by flying an airplane into it.
The main thrust of the "antiracist" movement that is gaining steam in many sectors of society, including the tech industry, can be summarized as: "whites are perpetuating a global racist conspiracy against people of color."

They see Israel/Palestine through this lens, as well as the racial justice issues in the US.

It doesn't take much of a leap to get to, "Jews are perpetuating a global racist conspiracy..."

Any introduction of a false timing signal whose time offset from the existing measurements is greater than the local clock's uncertainty can be flagged as false.

If your previous reported satellite time is Sp, previous local time is Lp, local time uncertainty is U, current local time is Lc = Lp + Ld±U, and current reported satellite time is Sc = Sp + Sd, then, roughly speaking,

if Sd > (Ld + U) or Sd < (Ld - U), the reported signal is a spoof.

So the original spoof signal as well as any subsequent spoof signals are subject to the stricter constraints offered by your higher-accuracy local time source.

"Under fire" from whom? A random twitter user? NYPost is literally a tabloid on the order of National Enquirer.
But is it right that the issue is fetching resources from a different domain than the current one? As a user, just because I've connected to domain A, it doesn't mean I necessarily want my computer to connect to any domain B that A links to. Also, I'd rather developers focus on making small pages that are easier to fetch on demand, and am worried that they'll use prefetch to justify bloated pages. If a page is large enough to need prefetch, then I might not want to spend the data pre-fetching it especially if the click probability is not very high. Between all of these, I'm not convinced of the need for cross-domain prefetch.

Apologies that I'm not a front-end person so this may be naive, but it would be great to hear your thoughts!

Two lines today. CSS has come a loooong way... One could argue that the main advantage of CSS is that is a living standard, constantly adding and improving features and seeing a competition between implementations; whereas more traditional technologies are typically mono-vendor and, for one reason or another, have long stagnated.
It could be a situation where it's "how bad are you hosed" - for example a bit flipping in a text document can pretty easily be fixed by hand (though it could be completely missed, and critical to be sure) - but a compressed format could either recover losing a "sector" or so, or simply be impossible to restore anything from it.

There's an argument that you're better off knowing you lost data than having most but with a hidden flaw - but either way you want multiple copies and preferably in a format that contains error detection AND correction - and itself is stored on a filesystem that provides similar (ZFS for example).
Bootstrap was effectively the jQuery for CSS, in terms of standardizing what layouts looked like across all browsers.

It gets a bad rap because it's so easy to use for non-designers that a lot of sites that use it don't bother customizing the UI elements like buttons or expand/collapse accordions etc. Or the layout of the page, for that matter. The famous "Every Bootstrap website ever"[0] site outlines this nicely:

There's nothing unsafe in this particular temporary solution. It's the other way, if something leaks, you can relatively easily fix it. It's only problem if you bury leaking stuff underground.

Hey everyone, our team is working on open-source tools for data scientists: dvc.org and cml.dev. These two products help ML teams track ML experiments and run training in the cloud using Git & GitOps approach.

Today we are launching DVC Studio - User Interface for DVC and CML. This UI works on top of GitLab, GitHub or BitBucket and extends it by ML specific scenarios:

- Visualizing dashboard of ML experiments

- Graphs for your ML training

- Manages connections to your clouds - data is not stored in Git, but cloud storages :)

- Modify hyperparameters in UI & run ML experiments in clouds or Kubernetes

All of this through Git, GitOps paradigm and with connection to GitLab, GitHub and BitBucket.

Looking forward to your feedback!

Not clear at all. I looked up the company, opened the website, and there are some "get the app" buttons, but the website does not indicate that the product is an app-first experience at all.

The submitted article even mentions it as a "shopping site", not an app. And looking at play store reviews, it doesn't look like the app is any better. It's filled with various technical issues and 1 or 2 star reviews.

So excuse me for having this crazy assumption that if something is being sold for over a billion dollars, it should at least somewhat work.

If I were Etsy, I would probably buy it for the community and marketing talent, fire every single dev and start from scratch.
