To me the best path for "side-loading" is still the web browser. I don't know of any messaging apps that will fail to open a properly-formed URL in Safari.

Granted, Apple have gone out of their way to make this as miserable as possible if you need native device capabilities. Even so, you can still build a lot of super valuable things as a simple website.

Lack of ability to create custom ELB security policies are frequent pain I run into. Customers I work with want to hand pick the supported TLS cipher suites to confirm with internal security policies rather than take one of the pre-defined AWS ones, which tend to support the odd "weak" cipher.

Ha, well even if there's an argument for that, it quite often leads to (and is even more reinforced by in terms of votes) the original asker 'accepting' the solution; then the answer that 'fixed it for them, first' is forever ranked highest, even if it rarely works for others and something else is more up-voted.
Executing a kid for protests that didn't get anywhere is an indicator of fragility. Do they really think it sends a signal of strength to go through with this? This makes it seem like when there's a proper insurrection organized by adults it will have a real chance of toppling the regime.
Such a tragedy, to execute a teenager for such "crimes". It makes me sad, and angry... Not only they kill children in Yemen, but also their own citizens.

What can we do about this, maybe not much, these tyrants are supported by their friends in the West, but we can surely try. Pressure politicians to stop supporting them, selling them weapons, allowing their dirty money into the financial system.

Maybe even smaller steps could make an impact, like what if Muslims stop going to Hajj as long as these monsters are in powers. They earn big money from that.

Nothing to see here, while he shifts goalposts, and distracts people from the actual discussion.

How about we get to the heart of the matter, is this vaccine safe to use? The answer is, there are NO long term studies (obviously) and that this is pretty much a game of Russian Roullette.

The media spent years gaslighting the public to associate anti-vax with idiot suburban moms and rednecks. Now they are cashing in on that label to brand all evidence to the contrary as anti-vax hysteria, when in fact, this "vaccine" is the first of its kind to leverage this new method of delivery, and there is no way to know whether it is safe to use.

The VAERS data on its own is enough to warrant SERIOUS investigation, yet somehow, the unsafest vaccine in the history of the planet - at least by this metric - is heralded and protected, and any opposing views are silenced in true orwellian fashion.

I however have come to believe that this is the first time the majority of the population are starting to see through the lies.
You can see it in the way the threads now have active engagement, and people are willing to risk their safety (yes, literally we have to RISK our own livelihood to engage ANYWHERE online), to step up and voice their concerns.

So, ultimately, lets not pretend that YOU have the answer to whether this "vaccine" (literally labeled as poison by the Australian government) is safe to use, or not, as in the absolute best case of your position, you would be able to say only: We don't know if its safe, there are 0 long term studies.

All references to "You" in this comment are in reference to "boredprograming".
I think it would depend where we draw the line on Earth's history and the time distribution of these impacts. During the early days of the Solar System huge impacts would have been part of "the old normal", but there's a limit to how many massive rocks there are to go around.

On a side note, I didn't find that video particularly impressive–of course the impact of an asteroid whose diameter is larger than the width of bloody Japan would be apocalyptic! I also found it a bit gratuitous when they showed recognisable landmarks looking a bit damaged when the whole world is lava, and pointless that they talked about the effects "a month" later. What is even "a month", if not even the extremophile archaea survive?
> #1 Make EC2 Auto Scaling decisions faster

Fuck yeah. The autoscaler is almost certainly a distributed, fault tolerant, highly available system that is deployed across multiple availability zones. Presumably they trade consistency for other attributes so there's an intentional delay to avoid making constant flapping changes. There's also the metrics granularity to consider. Take SQS for example, another distributed system. Many of the useful queue metrics are averaged over time, which adds a delay on top of the metric gathering period. The result is that a scale-to-zero ASG that scales based on SQS queue depth takes about 3 minutes to produce an EC2 instance from a cold state. If you're lucky.

These Phase III vaccine trials also do weekly symptom monitoring. In order to qualify for lab evaluation for COVID-19, there's criteria for how many symptoms are required and for how long.

The Pfizer trial results were based on 170 confirmed cases but there were “3410 total cases of suspected, but unconfirmed covid-19 in the overall study population, 1594 occurred in the vaccine group vs. 1816 in the placebo group.”[1]

It's all a scam. Nobody, but bots click those ads. Without those bots, Google and Facebook would be bankrupt.
There were ideas thrown around to do one big study of various vaccines instead of multiple ones. Didn't happen, probably was too much of an organizational challenge and would've required all companies to comply to a protocol made by a third party.

Scientifically it would've been the best idea.

The challenge now is that the more the world gets vaccinated the harder it gets to do any meaningful trial.
Conspiracy theory:

1. specification authors want to make sure the extended grapheme cluster algorithms are widely adopted so that implementations can correctly deal with devanagari
2. they notice no one gives a shit about brown people and their writing systems

This looks like a direct competition by to square
I don't if useful but there are also existing projects like https://github.com/schollz/raspberry-pi-turnkey and https://github.com/sabhiram/raspberry-wifi-config which have the Pi configure an open WiFi AP if a network has not yet been configured which then allow the user to setup their network through a simple wizard-like web interface.

> That is weird argument, just because it didn't happen then, it doesn't happen now?

If you try to do it the exact same way, without even bothering to look at what happened before, let alone learn any lessons from it, then no, it won't happen now, either.
> Short of war, there’s absolutely nothing that can be done

Here are some things that can be done:

- Stop exporting weapons and military and police equipment.

- Support women and them starting their own businesses, so they'll make money and get more influence in society. Women are, when looking at large numbers of people, more often altruistic minded (compared to men) and less likely to be psychopaths.

- Education, provide for free over the Internet.

- Support pro democracy organizations. But I guess one would need to be careful, if doing this, so people won't just start protesting on the street and get shot down, for example see in Iran recently (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-iran-gasoline-protests-id...).
And good old Uncle Sam sells 10 billion a year in weapons to these pricks - along with billions in aid for Israel to "mow the grass" (IDF phrase) in Gaza. Disgraceful.

Germany is on our shortlist too, though the cycling infra seems poor compared to NL/DK/Nordics. Would love for the kids to learn German (and ourselves!)
You need huge trials to do this.

The power of your trial comes from the "events", i.e. number of people who got symptoms of covid-19. Have 2 vaccinated groups? Not many events.
The confusion between between a zero and an O would only happen to a human. The software would always consider them fully separate characters, would never, for example, silently convert all the zeros to O's during a copy-paste operation.

Also, zero-O confusion can be remedied by simply choosing the right font. But by definition, different types of spaces all have to look exactly the same when rendered as text. To inspect and diagnose the problem, you have to switch to a different form of character representation, like hex or Unicode code points.
Bear in mind that the modal Linux kernel dev is closer to a cubicle dweller than a basement dweller. For large, important projects it absolutely is 9-5.
I think there are two issues with trying to get adoption for this in mainstream products:

1. Loads of products that have this problem use a wifi hotspot to do that transfer instead. Yes it sucks, but they don't want to pay for BLE that is only used for the connection process.

2. Both Apple and Android already have wifi-based connection processes built into the OS that have the enormous advantage of being able to fiddle with your WiFi settings and access your WiFi passwords. If you use those systems the connection process is actually reasonably slick (and if you don't it is the most awful thing ever).

Good luck though. I worked on the WiFi connection process for a product and the whole thing is a complete mess. Any improvement is a good thing.
How JavaScript works: the “this” variable and the execution context
We have plans to investigate adding global strong consistency in the future but we/Fastly don't currently support that!

The purging takes ~150ms in the same datacenter that the mutation passes through, how long it takes globally depends on Fastly's bimodal multicast system — they've written a fascinating article about it that I'd highly recommend reading: https://www.fastly.com/blog/building-fast-and-reliable-purgi...
It's exactly like that. Even being 'innoculated' with stories of how it's a relic of a feudal show-off doesn't work. I resented mowing the lawn with my chores as a child, but then once I owned some grass, I saw every weed as a personal insult, and I became a lawn addict within a year.

But even if it's a memetic virus, I don't resent it.
We hoped that this would be our experience moving to the EU (Ireland) but due to housing issues we wound up in a field in the countryside. They DO get free reign of the field and the lovely walking trail, but the road is full of high speed drivers with nothing but a dense, tall hedgerow to jump in to. Ireland copied all the mistakes of America with regards to urban design, too.

What I get reading over the years is on land anything that couldn't crawl into burrow in the ground didn't make it.

I think the answer with birds is they already existed as separate species from dinosaurs.

""Birds evolved from theropod dinosaurs during the Jurassic (around 165–150 million years ago) and their classic small, lightweight, feathered, and winged body plan was pieced together gradually over tens of millions of years of evolution rather than in one burst of innovation. Early birds diversified throughout the Jurassic and Cretaceous, becoming capable fliers with supercharged growth rates, but were decimated at the end-Cretaceous extinction alongside their close dinosaurian relatives.""

In practice these big trials are run as sloppily as possible to get the desired result. There’s a whole cottage industry of consultants. Think unclear instructions leading to dosing mixups and such. The type of trial you’re proposing is notorious for sloppiness.
How can you leave out von Neumann from such a list?

Also, I feel like Schmidhuber tends to be German-speaking-centric.

And overall, acknowledging that this is his signature shtick and it's good to have a voice like this too, he does a lot of anachronistic reinterpretations of early discoveries in light of later results. It streamlines the story as if it was always headed towards the today, culling aspects that didn't pan out or magnifying aspects that were at the time more minor and not considered the central issue or angle.
I remember when our teacher of "African American Musical Civilization" in college used to say "Davis didn't invent anything, he was an opportunist that improved what already existed".
I don't have great memories of that teacher and, regardless of if what he said was true or not, doing what he said Miles did, is not a trivial and/or bad thing at all.

In any case, I wish there were more "basic guides to X", being X whatever artist that has a certain level of fame and recognition which I fail to understand the reason for.

> We spent months building custom caching for our GraphQL API from scratch

Could you not abandon GraphQL? Returning non-customized responses, while taking more bandwidth, is much more cache friendly for the client, proxies and particularly servers - where you can do simple yet powerful things (e.g. version-based invalidation and pre-generated payloads).

Like, I went to https://spectrum.chat/explore and clicked on "Tech. It uses GraphQL to load the communities.

Why not just hit /v1/communities?category=tech

which would loosely translate into one of:

-- if you want to serialize the object on each get

select * from communities where tags @> array['tech']

-- if you can look up the communities in a cache by id

select id from communities where tags @> array['tech']

-- if you have a high read / write and can just pre-serialize the payload and then glue together the response

select summary from communities where tags @> array['tech']
So say this while offering zero other alternative.

How else would you place a value on a company or product's explicit worth to humans?

Yeah, this is less than optimal, and that's why we are working on adding zones. It just made sense to start with Europe while we are in just one (due to compliance). We also plan on having our API endpoints on many different zones so that for our customers API calls are immediate.
I would trust neither of these solution not to have first-party tracking. Outlook might be the exception, but we know MS forces telemetry on its users.

A good answer would be to use and SMTP/IMAP client like Thunderbird. Google allegedly stopped reading your mails now... don't know why Gmail is that successful to be honest.
Isnt this just a way to bail out when facing too much complexity (and the universe is indeed too large for us to use logic at this scale) ?

I kinda feel like you beside the notion of God. I understand that living in anxiety (my previous way of living) is not optimal. That things are too chaotic, and often relying on paradoxically blind trust can yield better solutions. Paradoxical in the sense that trust also help you to see things calmer and clearer which is a requirement for reasoned thinking.

I guess this ties into the problem of living in chaos[0], which is how the world used to be, and probably how humans managed to go through with such high levels of uncertainty.

Especially when Apple has Apple Pay. Which is sort of a competitor.
For your home setup: sure, it should be resolved soon, not too big of an issue.

What's much more annoying is that this breaks CI/Docker builds. Right now you can't deploy new container images that depend on a MS repository. I hope it's resolved soon.
Depends on the API and how much testing you need. You want to test your code, not the API's availability or correctness.

But it can be as easy as using a fake http library and mocking the responses, or using a httptest server: https://onsi.github.io/gomega/#ghttp-testing-http-clients

If the API is complicated and you have to write your own fake server, that might not make sense for small projects.

Sales depends mostly on sales tram ability.

In software it is much easier to scale sales: the infrastructure costs when selling 1M copies and 1.4M copies are quite similar. Maybe some devops will have to spin more servers.
But programmers allready did their job.

Compare this to selling physical objects. If you can make 1M cars per month, you cannot easily make 1.4M per month: it requires more workers, machines, supply. Those are quite neglible in software.

Also your workers can make cars 2x faster than everyone else (better productivity) but nobody will buy them, since they are poor quality

And yet you bring up "mowing the lawn", which is an unfortunate reality in which Israel has to sacrifice soldiers every few years in order to keep fighting this genocidal organization which does not respect the lives of its own, uses them as human shields and is happy when the Arab death count is high because it just brings negative coverage on Israel.

Stabel is staticly typed with strict control of side effects (they're present in the type system). Since Stabel compiles to wasm, it can and will eventually be run in the browser (the playground at the Stabel website works by compiling code to wasm locally and executing it).

I'm kinda hoping that Stabel will fill the same niche as Elm, but also be able to run outside the browser so you can use the same benefits for other things than just making SPAs.

If you are a little aquinted with Elm, you can read this article about how Elm inspired Stabel: https://fossils.stabel-lang.org/compiler/wiki?name=How+Elm+i...
