He did come off as a little harsh but he's not entirely wrong depending on how you value your time and priorities. for the record it is perfectly possible to eat healthy without having to spend(waste) time cooking. I steam vegetables, eat fruit, and eat a lot of lean chicken and sardines.

I can definitely relate to him because I hate spending time cooking, I don't like the prep, I don't like the drudge work, and I don't like to have to clean up afterwards. I have a finite lifespan and I don't wanna waste any of it on things that I fundamentally do not enjoy, particularly if it's entirely avoidable.
Akka, Erlang, Service Fabric and so on are based on the Actor Model. You can implement that pattern in any modern language I would say. It is good when it comes to concurrency handling and it can be very simple to understand and to use but async programming is the modern way to solve many of those problems.

I happen to have never liked mushrooms and don't eat them. I don't have cancer. At least not that I know off. Sample of 1, so obviously meaningless. And I might be wrong. Statistically, unless something else kills me first, I believe I have 100% chance of getting cancer and dying of it. Just to put the overall claim a little in perspective. It's more a matter of when than if.

45% sounds overly assertive; so does the very specific number of two mushrooms. Not one, not three: two! Reminds me a bit of a certain scene in Monty python and the holy grail. Anyway, what did they do to the poor control group that the cancer incidence (and I suppose mortality?) were so high? Were there other factors they did not consider? Etc. This article raises more questions than it answers. The answers are probably quite a long winded way of saying that generalizing these conclusions to the overall population of humanity would be premature based on the inevitably small subset of it that they had to work with. At best the conclusion should read as "mushrooms probably not horrible to add to your diet if you can stand them".
Steve McConnell wrote the Construx Estimation Tool way back in the '90s. It made use of Monte Carlo simulations. I still have a copy.
We tried this at $OLD_JOB and what I've found is that when there is a larger disparity between estimates, it hints at information asymmetry, but that asymmetry can still exist when everyone has similar ideas about timelines, and so you can still get drastically wrong estimates when everyone thinks they're in agreement.
You seem to have a very strange definition of theft. Other countries are perfectly entitled to do similarly, as Netherlands does.

Why is there not a focus on countries such as Bermuda here? They are the "tax havens" who make this possible in the first place.

The main narrative is the usual war mongering. You're doing it in your post.

These are criminal actions, as they're not endorsed by the state.

But it doesn't have to reach the scale of war to be bad. The broader narrative is We Have To Do Something. And that Something is always grant the government more power. Why is it a good thing, for instance, that we're taking "unprecedented" steps?

The US has been dealing with ransoms, piracy, extortion since its founding. "From the halls of Montezuma, to the shores of Tripoli," the latter was one of our first expeditions to deal with piracy.

As there is plenty of precedent for dealing with this stuff, we should be very skeptical when the government insists it needs new powers.

I'm not sure that an Apple targeted ad platform would be seen as very different from Facebook's targeted ad platform by consumers. It's true that Apple have a better track record of keeping data private, and there's been no Cambridge Analytics style atrocities. But providing tracking ads of any kind (whether bundled by cohorts or what ever privacy enabling methodology could be added) could tarnish their reputation.

Just because a business can destroy another huge companies business model it doesn't mean that replicating it is a good idea.

If look at all the products you like that are already out there, probably few are first of their kind. E.g. React was proceeded (and followed) by numerous JavaScript frameworks. It’s totally fine (perhaps preferable) to improve on an existing idea — build a better mouse trap.

Are there any software products/services you want that are too complicated and expensive? Maybe build something easier, cheaper, and more niche.

The real apartheid in Israel is not against its Arab population (although by various means a good part of it doesn't even have citizenship). The real apartheid is what happens in the occupied territories, where Jews enjoy all the benefits and protection of their citizenship while Arabs are deprived of any rights.
That seems unlikely, when you consider the advertising market and how it works. Fundamentally, the providers (i.e. the chainsaw store) don't tell the advertising platforms when a person buys a chainsaw (and often they can't tell themselves).

So, what ends up happening is the situation that many people complain about is that the provider shared a list of people who looked at chainsaws, and then the advertising platform shows them ads until they run out of money/find more profitable ads to sell.

From the perspective of the ad platform, it doesn't matter that you already bought it. From the perspective of the provider, this is acceptable waste.

Of course, it's like many people in American health insurance are making a buck off a system that bankrupts the sick or maybe people who are worried about climate change but still work for a company that disproportionally exacerbates the issue because they have too many other personal priorities to account for.
Also like these other issues, there's creeping normalcy and once the effects are apparent, it's very difficult (if not impossible) to rollback. This is more a systemic conversation in that individuals who find themselves having to choose between concrete, personal growth and more nebulous (often controversial) public good can't be expected to be accountable on both levels in many cases. I don't understand the argument that people raising ethical or even general concerns about their work/industry should quit and get replaced, and then point to their replacement as the reason the original concern was unfounded.
Apple is fooling everyone into thinking they are providing privacy when all they've done is restrict cross app tracking. Facebook, Google etc can still track anything you do in those apps at the user level which is tied back to a real name most likely. They're losing insight into what you did post click into other apps, but it doesn't change the basic information they track about you in their own applications.
Sure, it may be a controversial change to this competition —- I am saying that state of being a “competition” has nothing to do with whether rule changes might be spurred by a particular competitors dominance.

Not even a little bit. There are vast numbers of free, ad-supported apps in the iOS App Store. This is accepted, intentional, and mostly fine (because it's nearly impossible for malicious in-app ads to either compromise your device, or exfiltrate data the app itself doesn't already have access to, due to iOS security & sandboxing).

Usually the argument I see online is that criticism of Israel isn't necessarily anti-semitic.

But this is just straight up criticism of Jews, based on the actions of Israel. He's saying that Jews in general should atone for their inherent bloodlust.

That's not "harsh", he's picked a bad thing that some members of a group did and tried to apply it to all members of that group. In other cases we would say that's sexist or racist, and here it's anti-semitic.

> How do you do this without containers?

So I'm mostly in the "dev" rather than "ops" space (without containers I can stay out of it), but I believe our (non-container) machines are running nightly updates of OS and other packages via `apt-get update` etc. That is definitely a pre-immutability world, which certainly has it's own problems.

Alternately, perhaps you deploy to heroku, where you hope [right or wrong] "that's heroku's responsibility, I'm not sure how they deal with it, but i assume they do"

Of course, the more "modern" alternative to heroku is some kind of k8 host (or using heroku's docker-based instead of traditional process)... which I gets puts the "patch vulnerabilities in OS" back in your lane again, even if you are paying for hosted K8 of some kind? That's among what I'm trying to get out of paying for PaaS!

Looking at other comments in this HN post discussion (I confess I asked versions of this question a couple times)... it seems there is some controversy over how people actually do this with container-based infrastructure, especially on small teams...
Did you see the FPGA which had an "ineffectual" circuit created while using Evolution Algo to optimize design for calculating integrals? Turns out it wasn't ineffectual but had EM effects between circuits that the calculation required!

There's nothing broken about parseInt. The problem is, it can take a second argument(radix), and .map will feed it current item's index as the second argument(and the whole array as the third, but that one will get ignored).

const arr = ['1','2','3'];
arr.map(parseInt) is equivalent to: [
parseInt('1', 0, arr),
parseInt('2', 1, arr),
parseInt('3', 2, arr)
];

I don't dispute that most of this immigration was non-ideological, I wasn't trying to suggest that it wasn't. Nor am I opposed in any way to Jewish immigration to Israel.

Moreover, racial & ethnic separatism is a very common and understandable reaction to oppression. But I still remain critical of it - just as I would be if Black people in the United States established a separate Black state in North America.

The crime, in my view, was the insurgency, bombings, and driving out of the British following their announcement that they planned to transition Palestine into an independent, multi-racial state with majority-rule. Fighting against that goal in order to form an ethno-state is, in my view, analogous to what the white minority in Zimbabwe/Rhodesia pulled after similar British announcements around their colonial state. The primary difference is that Israel remains, Rhodesia no longer does.

> I'm also Irish, and have never heard such a criticism of Irish Republicanism. Besides that, lots of countries' have rights of return, ethnonational symbolism, etc.

My understanding is that Irish republicanism is not based on the same principles as Zionism, namely there is no opposition for a multi-ethnic/racial state with majority democratic rule.

I think this misses the nuance that makes BTC so great. BTC has a limited supply. It's designed to hold value. Zimbabwe's currency was used to print it's way out of debts.

With BTC you don't have to worry about someone siphoning value from your currency. It's not just coincidence that BTC increases in value YOY. Bitcoiners call this 'number go up' technology.

When all central banks are tripping over themselves to devalue their currencies, BTC's value rises.
> in a culture where all white people are guilty for slavery, this mindset makes sense to me

Not all white people are guilty of slavery, and virtually no one thinks that they are.

Essentially all American white people continue to materially benefit from a long history of systematic racism in America [0], including slavery, state-mandated and state-tolerated post-slavery subjugation and segregation. Heck, many living white Americans are direct beneficiaries of overt discrimination in public programs, not to mention systematic, coordinated private discrimination.

People who oppose acknowledging the latter point like to set up the former as a convenient strawman.

[0] which is not to say all are in a good absolute position, or even not structurally disadvantaged on balance; systematic racial discrimination isn’t the only structural bias in American society.
Obviously - that's why the prompt says "Allow <app> to track your activity across other companies' apps and websites?" instead of "Ensure privacy within this app".
I was homeschooled k-12 and my recommendations are much more nuanced.

1. Homeschooling is an enormous investment both in time and money. Not every family can afford to do it.

2. Done incorrectly homeschooling can have an adverse effect on the child. (See point #1 about the investment). On the other hand done properly it an escape route for families who may have no other way out. I would not be where I am now without the advantages of my homeschool education.

To do it well you have need a few components:

1. You need at least one parent who is able to focus on the education. It takes planning and preparation. In many cases this could mean that a family loses all or part of one of the parents income.

2. You need a good support network. Your child will need interaction with both other children but also other adults who are not their parents.

3. To get the most out of it you need to tailor the education for each child.

The benefits can be huge but it's not a slam dunk for anyone. I'm glad the option exists for those who will get no other better outcome though. Not every public school is equal. And homeschooling can sometimes be an overall financial win compared with private schools.

I know a lot of people whose experience was not as good as mine though so I include a lot of caveats when someone asks me if it's a good idea for their family. It's not something to jump into blindly.

"That's fundamentally an issue with homeschooling. There's nobody to say "hey, we have a problem here" when Sally can't read, or Johnny doesn't understand geometry because Khan academy isn't working and mom can't explain it."

Three things:

1. There are lots of private options for this, at least in any major metro.

2. From my experience with homeschoolers, the sheer amount of parent attention they tend to get lends itself towards figuring these things out (especially with help from a homeschooling community or the aforementioned private options).

3. From my experience as a public school teacher, most of the kids who needed services didn't get them, and I saw very few situations where the services seemed to make a significant difference (though there were some). I've seen more success stories around learning disabilities from homeschoolers than I have from kids at public schools (and in fact often the learning disability was a key impetus for the switch to homeschool).

So the question is, "compared to what?" Kids with strong parent advocates are likely to get what they need in whatever environment they're in. Kids without them aren't likely to, but there's selection bias against that in homeschool. Yes, one can have a great result with public school, and sometimes that's the right call for a family, but after my stint in the public schools I'm much more confident in a well-meaning parent figuring out the solution with a kid they spend lots of time with than I am in that same parent spending much less time with the kid and rolling the dice with public school specialists and support services.
