That's a great question. FWIW Gitlab does have merge train with similar baseline functionality. There's two part answer to your question:
- even though it's trivial from the face of it, since we specialize in merging process, we are able to provide much more complex workflows, such as batch mode.
- starting with MQ, our goal is continue focusing in engineering productivity and build as we understand the use cases better. We imagine a world where every team has the toolset that is built internally by developer productivity teams at the likes of Google, FB. We have to still start somewhere right :)
Programming in C++ today is very little like C++ in the 90s.

With "dweb" do you refer to getdweb.net or to one of the many other alternatives that have sprung up?
Can you explain how it works, is it available via the regular browser by typing in an url? What's the selling point? Sorry, I know I could do this research myself but I did that several times now with various alternatives and it just doesn't seem like any of them are good enough. Does dweb help against DDOS?
Sigh.

I'm annoyed by articles like this where the subtext is that the people involved are either fools or evil. And, there's no doubt that much of the Trumpverse has detached from anything I recognize as sanity, but there should at least be some effort put into _why_ the people interested in it might feel the way they do.

Made in China? Sure. Everything's made in China. So what? Some company in China making budget phones isn't the one taking their "free speech" apps away.

Its App Store is insecure? So what? It's like people have forgotten that this is a group with strong overlap with the people that complain about the liberal nanny state.

Is it really too hard to see that the "Freedom" this is about is freedom from the US tech sector and not China, or that the US tech sector might be a more immediate problem in their minds?

Now, is it a scam? A grift? I don't know. Overpromises from a guy who doesn't really know what he's doing but has strong feelings served with a side of self-benefit is what I'd expect from the Trumpverse, but there's no actual analysis beyond stating that these phones can't do what phones backed by trillion dollar companies can do. This kind of article is just lazy.
Oh man this is extremely bad news. The highway should not get to decide which color cars are allowed through. Google et al, are only going to make the internet's underground railroad larger. Users aren't supposed to be slaves to the preferences of the companies that provide the products.
Maybe turn it into something like a game of capture-the-flag? Anyone who stores sensitive information must also store an unique flag value which, if reported to the 'referee' by an external actor would constitute proof of a security breach and requisite payout.

>More likely, he did what was good for himself personally, to stay in power etc. Whilst saying to others that he did what was good for the USSR. And then, seems many people still today believe him

Stalin remained true to the Marxist ideal of a classless and stateless world society until his death in 1953. This is the conclusion of researchers at Amsterdam University (UvA) who studied Stalin's annotations in books by Marx, Engels and Lenin in his private library.

The notes originate from the period between 1917 and 1953 and show that the dictator continued to adhere to such Marxist goals as the abolition of the state and the creation of classless society. Moreover, Stalin's correspondence and discussions with such Communist leaders as Mao Zedong and Palmiro Togliatti show a continuing faith in the spread of communism and "world revolution".

A false preacher using his power for selfish purposes will carry a bible for show, maybe have a few stowed away. A false preacher certainly wouldn't have accumulated years of theology literature in his personal/private library over his lifetime. Seems like a true believer to me, but you may see it differently. Him being a true believer and having done what he did makes his particular flavor of human nature even more frightening.
Fly has become a serious contender. I remember the early days where they were more of a reverse proxy with javascript workers but have since evolved into a fantastic platform, solving for both compute and data.

Jimmy Maher criticizes the gameplay aspects of Full Throttle, saying they pale in comparison to games like Day of the Tentacle. However, I remember Full Throttle's simplified gameplay as one of the reasons I liked it so much when I got it. It was a breath of fresh air compared to the enormously complex Day of the Tentacle. In that game, you had to control three characters at once, each with a full inventory of items (and they could exchange items!). With Full Throttle, the story held my attention the entire time and the puzzles were just difficult enough to require some thought / trial and error, but not so much that it seemed hopeless without a guide. Sure, the action segments were rough, but they were a tiny part of the game.
Pharo, like its siblings Cuis, Squeak, and NewSpeak runs on a VM called Open Smalltalk. It is written in a stylized version of Smalltalk so can be debugged with the tandard Smalltalk tools (i.e. you can have the modified VM you're working on load and run an image - but your VM is running in a debugger!)

Then when you're happy with your revised VM, you can spit out portable C code, compile it, and BAM you've got a production VM! Most plug-ins and primitives are also written in the Smalltalk subset (called SLANG), so they will likely be similarly portable.

There is also an FFI for interfacing beyond the standard model.

You may be able to intercept a firmware update and load a binary poisoned with your own CA cert. (Lots of factors at play here, of course.)

I'm working on a similar problem (https://github.com/elahd/esp2ino/issues/16) with a project I maintain to sideload IoT device firmware (https://github.com/elahd/esp2ino).

I've been using both mitmproxy and IOXY (https://github.com/NVISOsecurity/IOXY), an intercepting proxy made specifically for MQTT. IOXY is a small, less mature project, but it's definitely worth checking out as a compliment to mitmproxy. Many devices managed via AWS IoT phone home over MQTT and, my limited experience aside, it looks like many don't bother validating certificates when authenticating over this protocol.
Offhand these "jigs" appear to be no more than a particular (yet not fully defined) set of relations.
This was fascinating read, my take away from it was; there need for social media regulation by an 3rd party organization(s), e.g. mass social media needs regulation similar to relations between financial industry and organizations such as FINRA, CFTC, and SEC with reporting/access standards.
Whilst it looks like it will be well clear of Earth, from the trajectory, it does seem to cross the orbit of Mars.
Looks like we need to fund an organization ... let's say it's called OSIt ... that such a developer can turn to. It would offer to sponsor community-beneficial software - subjected to such corporate end-runs - to convert to open-source.

Perhaps there are orgs that would understand the necessity for OSIt, and would be willing to endow the sponsorship fund.

Mine failed last week after working since around 2014. It didn't give me any alerts except that it was unable to make backups. Trying to format the thing completely wasn't fixing it either. Ended up following an iFixit tutorial to replace the HD with a 1 TB SSD and now it works fine again.
Fakespot is one of the more atrocious extensions when it comes to data collection. It sends everything you look at, everything you add to cart, while you are logged out of everything it will also persistently track your viewed items with a unique identifier. I understand that the below may be in PP/ToS but come on, a normal user will not.

It does a lot of things completely opaque to the normal end user that are well above a "please tell me if item X's reviews are good or bad" - it practically sends Fakespot almost every single page interaction or click that you do on an Amazon property.

It does the same on every other site it supports - whether or not you want your item inspected, it will notify Fakespot about what products you viewed, what browser, what you clicked on, Add to Cart or Buy Now clicks, Sort clicks, every product visible on page (by ID and seller).

They also use the same unique session identifier across sites, so items you look at on eBay/Walmart/etc can be tied to the same person as items viewed on Amazon. If you choose to try to opt out of automatic item detection, that choice is also sent back to their servers (where it then returns a 4xx and tells you to sign up or sign in to fakespot with an account to save settings).

The extension itself is many megabytes of heavily packed and obfuscated JS. If you have it installed, I would recommend not doing so.

Edit 3: I originally referenced https://www.submarinenetworks.com/en/systems/brazil-us/arcos... which claimed the following:

> The application for license for the ARCOS-1 Cuba Extension is still pending for approval.

However, though this page is a good resource about the cable itself, this quote appears not to be correct. See below for the edit history containing what I think is the most likely current publicly known state of the project:

---

Edit: a quick google for "arcos-1" "cuba" site:.gov yielded the following which may be relevant. I'm still parsing.

https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-368065A1.pdf

Edit 2: from above,

> By letter filed October 26, 2020, ARCOS-1 USA, Inc. and A.SurNet, Inc. (together, Applicants) notified the Commission of the withdrawal
of the request to modify the license for the ARCOS-1 submarine cable system - SCL-LIC-19981222-00032, SCL-MOD-20010302-00007,
and SCL-MOD-20020701-00056 - to include a new landing point in Cuba.

So uh... dead in the water unless anyone finds anything more recent. That quote is more recent than the linked article.
As someone naive to Red myself, I just read through the 5 different compile methods mentioned in the parent comment, and while that's quite a bit more than other languages offer, it seems to offer an interesting set of tradeoffs that balance the needs of different real-world scenarios against the language design.

It sounds like you're describing an edge case. To better understand it, what's the actual context around your requirement of static builds?

To be clear about my question, I am genuinely curious - perhaps there are workarounds that could be used, or optimizations that could be considered in the long term.

However (and critically), there is not nearly enough semantic detail in your arguments as currently presented for developers to potentially extract actionable work items from. This is why everyone else is annoyed.

Most smart missiles in the past 2 decades attack tanks by detonating on top. You don't really need classified tank data for this well-known vulnerability.

A-10 pilots fire into the ground obliquely to ricochet into the bottom of tanks.

Neither the top nor bottom have much armor in tanks.

In WW2, the most successful aerial tank attacks were to drop a 500 or 1,000 pound bomb on or next to a German tank, turning it over. (You can ignore any tank attack claim numbers that were not done by large bombs or specialized anti-tank planes - P-51's just couldn't "shoot up" German tanks.)

The BalticaBeer channel has remarkable videos of the Sidewinder and Wall-eye missiles (the Wall-eye II could destroy anything with its 2,000-pound shaped charge. Most of the Gulf War TV footage you've seen is from Wall-eyes, which used analog edge detection for precise targeting of buildings, bridges and vehicles, and could fly through a single pre-selected window - in a train even!)

The idea anyone's freedom of speech is silenced because they can't say what they want through their preferred megaphone is ridiculous.
We know very little about the actual interaction but there's no claim I see that there was coercion when the coins were sold to the undercover cop. Cops are allowed to setup chances for people to do illegal things, that's what stings and bait cars are all about, basically the fact that the person is a cop isn't really material because there's the assumption the person would have committed the crime with another person in the same situation.

> How money like does something have to be for it to be 'laundering'?

It has to be a fungible store of value, that can reasonably convertible into cash.

> Do stores need to not sell anything to someone they know does illegal things because they could sell those things on as a form of money laundering?

If a store is selling something that itself can be effectively resold, yes. Gift cards, for instance. Loaves of bread, not so much. Real estate, yes. Automobiles, yes. A cellphone, not so much. A cargo-container full of cellphones? Maybe.

> The implications seems pretty broad for all sorts of businesses if they sell anything to a criminal.

No, the implications are not broad if you sell to a criminal.

They are broad if you sell to a known-to-you criminal. This is not a strict liability offense.

This isn't that complicated a concept. If a killer hires an Uber to drive him to the scene of the crime, the driver isn't an accomplice. If that same killer hires an Uber, and tells the driver why he's taking the trip, he is. If I ask to crash on your couch, while I'm running from the law, you aren't aiding a fugitive. If I tell you that I need a place to hide from the cops until things blow over, you are.

Don't knowingly[1] help people commit crimes, and you'll have a lot fewer legal problems in your life.

You only need a few thousand km of orbital change to move a direct impact to well clear of Earth. You can use the momentum of photons to get this orbital change. The effect of paint is a very small delta-V, but it works out that it's enough if done a few decades before the expected impact. This works out since it is extremely unlikely that a large asteroid would impact Earth without first having a series of near passes.

If you stopped there then you missed the parts where the author moved on to ranting about the Soviet and Maoist ideology of Big Tech!

I'm a big supporter of free and open source software but this article is way over the top.

The article misses how much of a golden age we're in. There's tons of devices available where the operating system and full app suites are open source! Desktop Linux and even an un-Googled Android smartphones are the best they've ever been. Good dev software stacks are FOSS and competitive! The web is built on open interoperable vendor-agnostic CPU-agnostic OS-agnostic standards! We no longer face the threat of a closed-source OS (Windows) eating all computing with no alternatives, open or not, as we used to. Programming becoming a very lucrative career path has insured that there's a strong "computing culture" and no shortage of resources available to get started. Newer programming languages that are much more beginner-friendly than C yet still powerful have taken off shortening the on-ramp for people to competently contribute to software they use. The computing world has changed in the last few decades, and some people have failed to notice the many huge positives. Almost every sentence in this paragraph represents a predicted doomsday we avoided.
There is a reason why they don't tell you "anything you say can and will be used either for or against you in a court of law".
With virtual short method you set + and - terminals to the same voltage but 0 current between them.

It is easier in most cases than infinite gain model IMO. Once you have voltage and current of that location figured out, everything else in the circuit is solvable by freshman level analysis.

It was 10 person, but my point is people can still negotiate, even when they are young. And there is still a big gulf between a 300 person company (the startup I was at at its peak) and a 150,000+ person FAANG (where you will have less leverage as a non exec hire).

If we are being honest, there is no actual competition between C++ and Rust. Rust is a darling of HN, but practically unheard-of outside these four walls. C++ is the workhorse of industry, and it will be for many years to come. The difference between last week's population of professional C++ coders and this week's is larger than the total number of professional Rust coders. That will be true next week, too.

At this point, it appears that Rust could well survive and become a mainstream language, eventually, but that is by no means assured. While that puts it well ahead of any other language created in this millennium, it is very far from ready to raise a family on.

Remember, Ada had far more investment and industry backing than Rust will have for a long time to come, but was wiped out. Fighter planes are coded in C++, not Ada.
