You could try OCaml (it does have exception but they're usually "opt in"), it's a really nice language and probably one of the closest to GC'd Rust. There's also Swift that inspired some features.
Yup, the FBI arrest affidavit didn't mention the dots. There could have been some parallel construction to avoid testifying about secret printer dots in court, but on the face of it it appears that the government found out who it was in more conventional ways:

>The U.S. Government Agency conducted an internal audit to determine who
accessed the intelligence reporting since its publication. The U.S. Government Agency
determined that six individuals printed this reporting. WINNER was one of these six individuals.
A further audit of the six individuals' desk computers revealed that WINNER had e-mail contact
with the News Outlet. The audit did not reveal that any of the other individuals had e-mail
contact with the News Outlet.

>On June 3, 2017, your affiant spoke to WINNER at her home in Augusta, Georgia.
During that conversation, WINNER admitted intentionally identifying and printing the classified
intelligence reporting at issue [...] WINNER further admitted removing the classified
intelligence reporting from her office space, retaining it, and mailing it [...]
WINNER further acknowledged that she was aware of the contents of the intelligence reporting
and that she knew the contents of the reporting could be used to the injury of the United States
and to the advantage of a foreign nation.

The dots were used afterwards to see what happened to the document. By showing that the document she had printed was given to the press, they are able to take her in. Otherwise if multiple people had printed the same document in the past several weeks, you need to investigate each of them.
SpaceX had no RUD or any problem whatsoever because of software during the commercial crew test missions.

>if they weren't so huge those people might be making living wages working at Bills and Jims and Franklin's sewing shop.

I'm skeptical of this. If anything amazon's push for minimum wage makes me think they're better able to afford the increased cost of labor than their competitors.
In a way, the fact checkers and deplatformers are a regression to Orwell-world. These stick out as something out of place or even wrong. More subtle methods like hellbanning and promoting irrelevant content aren't as noticeable. I almost have a little hope, that the bastards have to show their hands now, even if only a little bit.
Find books you like. Give up on ones you don’t. I get so absorbed in books I like I forget to sleep. Books I find dull can induce me eyes to have difficulty focusing. It’s ok to skip forward if you aren’t liking a chapter, there’s no test at the end.

Vary it up. I read deep technical books, classics, and serious non fiction, but I also read humorous sci-if fantasy novels directed at teenagers.

Be ok that you got distracted. I mostly read on an ereader and it’s absolutely delightful and incredible to be able to go look up a reference you don’t know or understand on Wikipedia to get context. Just make it back to your book your own time.

And finally, as others have said, just read. Preferably
just do it before or in bed.
I'm sure the voting public was aware of this, too, many of whom might very well be employed by the coal plant.

Why is this article even on Hacker News? How many people here have even lived in a small town where coal mining feeds families before casting judgement?

It's easy to be on a high horse when you have a cushy remote FAANG job fixing CSS bugs for six hours a day at 200k+/year. My grandfather was in the coal mines, black lung disease and all, and I am very fortunate to just be fixing CSS.
It is possible chaining promises (as in my first example), just just need to wrap it all in a `.then(value => value.[operation]())`, but this way you can just use the `.[operation]()` straight on the data like you would do if there was no promise in the way.
> For WoW, as an example, it's inarguable that it's the biggest MMO of all time with a super active playerbase, even now.

That isn't clear at all that, right now is very different from a month ago. Final fantasy 14 could possibly be larger and if it isn't will very likely dethrone wow as the biggest mmorpg in the near future.
Don't forget the "probable cause" for lost gold either.

Or letting your printer run out of yellow ink.
Network admins and software developers have different goals, and pretty much every company bigger than three had us in different sections of the org chart. Calling it all “IT” will be misunderstood.

This is basic. It either calls into question GP's long experience, or completely proves Chomsky's point. They only hire people with no self-awareness.
To my understanding there is no data sent from my Brave client to any Brave servers. So my data are not stored or used by Brave servers, so I don’t care too much about their source.

Of course, there’s nothing magical about open source that makes it more privacy respecting. It’s just that open source let’s me know what my browser is doing. For example, Chrome is reporting everything I do to Google. It’s possible to know that by looking at the code for Chrome. Brave doesn’t do this and it’s possible to know that by looking at the code for Brave.
In the case of the NSW Law Enforcement Conduct Commission (LECC), its conduct is inspected by a separate agency known as the Office of the Inspector of the Law Enforcement Conduct Commission (OILECC). And OILECC's conduct, in turn, is reviewable by the NSW Ombudsman. And all three (LECC, OILECC and the Ombudsman) are overseen by a parliamentary committee.
And on the right, Fox let go some of longtime staffers who were not sympathetic to the networks coverage of the 2020 elections.

If you want to claim that the NY Times is left-leaning than I would agree. It's a newspaper in one of the most liberal cities in the country. Its ethos are probably more reflective of that than any elite orthodoxy.
This comment is a ridiculous. Your claim is that a few almost-imperceptible yellow dots are causing your ink cartridges to go down faster?

Your printer uses 10-100x the ink these dots require just by powering it on when it has to do a flush. These make effectively zero impact.

Thanks for noticing this, I fixed it on github. However, it seems that browsers are simply ignoring CRs. So that "\n\n" is enough.
Simple:

1. Destroying bitcoin as a free market network would put the final nail in the coffin of crypto as an alternative to fiat.

2. They would have no obligation to buy bitcoin from anyone they don't like.

3. They can funnel a lot of wealth to the elites who own the lion's share of the bitcoin.

4. They're just printing the money. The cost to the government is zero. In fact, a 51% attack is probably cheaper than the bureaucracy required for a complex legislative effort and worldwide enforcement. Not that cheaper has any sensible meaning when you have a money printer in your basement, LOL.

5. This involves no messy legislation, no courts, at most a special purpose vehicle or two. The Fed can take it from there with their own "private" resources.

6. The bitcoin network has no legal protection against a 51% attack like this, there is no legal obligation for a miner to process any particular transaction they don't like.
I don't see how that absolves Apple.

Apple gets the bigger headline because of their claim to support environmentalism and human rights.

I believe this has been common in journalism shortly after war. Whilst it may not be bad for you as an onlooker, I can imagine someone to whom this has actually happened, who perhaps is still suffering from ptsd, may not want to be graphically reminded, but does still want to read the article.
Yeah. But there is no fundamental reason to assume that the externalities of a cheap option are different from an expensive one.

And price is generally an extremely good indicator of how much energy it took to produce something.
Yes, that's a vulnerability, I have fixed it on github.
Agree to disagree then I guess.

"When it comes to performance, I was referring primarily to e.g. cross-domain queries. That continues to be challenging in data virtualization / federated query engines."

Have you tried Trino lately? Data virtualization like Denodo still relies on moving data back between engines to execute a query, Trino pushes the queries down to both systems and processes the rest in flight. The fact that you use both of those interchangeably makes me think you may not have tried it.

"Data mesh targets analytical workloads - and surely you do not suggest e.g. hooking Trino up directly to operational, OLTP databases?" Not operational data. Are you saying teams aren't allowed to store immutable data in PostgreSQL?

"Not only are the domain teams free to build the aforementioned pipelines and model data in any way they see fit"

You will organically see teams build data infrastructure with different tooling. This happens when you don't tell a team they have to use a DW to play the analytics game. I have never seen a company that has multiple teams that organically land on using the same tech. So naturally (that is without forcing the to use one substrate i.e. DW) you will have different teams (or domains) using different databases. This is why we have DW to begin with. They were literally created to be a copy of domain data that naturally lied in many operational databases.

I get that in an ideal world, there would be some magical one size fits all solution that everyone would just use. However, that system doesn't exist. It's certainly not the DW. DW can be one of those solutions, just not THE one.
Ditto. The product is here: https://chibitronics.myshopify.com/products/chibitronics-chi...

Caveat: I probably will not end up going for it since the book ($10) doesn’t come with the LEDs, the stem kit is a reasonable $35, but with shipping (to Canada) and tax it comes to $63.47USD.
>In the US, life expectancy at birth was around 53 in 1921. Today it's almost 79. That's a nearly 50% increase.

This has nothing to do with productivity rise and where do we see its results (what is discussed here), but about the merits of technology.

Even so, the raise in life expectancy at birth is about those low hanging hygiene practices (nothing to do with post 1950 techology) and a few vaccines (most of which available before 1950s).

Not any big technological breakthroughs, like artificial hearts and so on (which hardly make a dent), and with extremely little to do with any post 1950s tech.

So the question of the article in the domain still remains, where's all this benefit from the productivity rise.
The idea of paying for aerospace jobs lead to steady losses in the aerospace market, until deeply capitalistic (in a sense) SpaceX came and lowered costs.

Once again: the idea that USA would keep competing on international aerospace market of launch services wasn't working before SpaceX started launching Falcon-9. Maybe the market losses are because of paying for aerospace jobs, or maybe it's just a coincidence, but USA was practically pushed out from the market, until - heavily vertically integrated - SpaceX put the launch price on their website.

I think the idea of paying for aerospace jobs in this way doesn't work.

The first Macs were 8 MHz 68000 chips. The GUI was still very responsive. The menus popped down and Quickdraw (the graphics library) properly handled arbitrarily shaped overlapping windows. There was a demo with a round window and windows in the background updated perfectly. Bill Atkinson invented the Regions data structure (and the rest of Quickdraw) that allowed among other things, background windows graphics calls to be clipped to arbitrary combinations of foreground windows super efficiently. Atkinson is one of the greats.

Ask a working single mother is she would trade "inexpensive, effective appliances" to 1960s era healthcare, housing/rent, and education costs, and working/middle class job availability.

The answer might suprise you...
I also think a lot of people aren't aware of the situation, since each company has a multiple of different brands under their umbrella. And it doesn't hurt that since these companies control so much of the media they can, at least in theory, suppress any press that might result in such public outry.
The fact that more entertainment is available is the growth in wealth, not that it is suitable for your tastes.
It's likely that patents on suitable materials used for neural electrodes will have to expire before they can be more generally used in publicly funded research.
The main thing people lost here is hope. Before they were angry with Blizzard products but hope remained that the next game, the next expansion or the next patch would fix things. But now hope is lost, the community views this event as the final confirmation that Blizzard is run by really shitty people and their releases will just continue to get worse instead of shaping up.

I can't speak to the others, but Twitch as a heuristic is going to be extremely misleading for WoW, since it's centered almost purely around the competitive aspects (raids and M+), and almost in sync with every other part of the game going to shit, those two have grown in popularity with proper "e-sports" style coverage being introduced.

The WoW devs are still very good at making raid encounters and competitive dungeons. And they have literally zero competition in that area. So as long as they don't do anything catastrophic, they'll maintain that segment of the playerbase by default.

there are places where you get to pay what you want. you should pay something, but you decide how much. the one we have been to looked like a high end fine dining restaurant, and we were treated as such. it was driven by some buddhist philosophy and it effectively allowed those who could afford it to subsidize the meals for those who couldn't.

it doesn't need to be fine dining, but i like the idea of having a place where less and better off can go to eat and noone has to be ashamed that they can't afford their meal.

There’s no indication that happened either. The court docs say an investigator went to her house and questioned her, and she admitted to printing the doc and sending it to the press. That’s how 99% of police work is done in the real world.
> NSW also employed the Fixated Persons Unit (a terrorist task force) to arrest a journalist who was critical of John "Pork" Barilaro

A guy who worked for a YouTube comedian as a producer, and who allegedly was following a politician to public events and harassing him there, was arrested and charged with stalking. The "Fixated Persons Unit" has a broader mandate than purely terrorism offences, its mandate also extends to stalking and harassment of a "public office holder or internationally protected person, or other person/s nominated by the commissioner of police"

> So far, there's been no word from the "Law Enforcement Conduct Commission" on whether the arrest was lawful (hint: it wasn't)

LECC is unlikely to investigate an arrest while there is a pending criminal prosecution. For them to do so might be seen as interfering with the Court process.

I don't know if the arrest was legal or not. But the police unit which carried out the arrest is irrelevant to the question of its legality.
Craig Murray addresses this in his latest post:

> I want to touch on one other aspect of liberty in my own imprisonment that appears not understood, or perhaps simply neglected, because somehow the very notion of liberty is slipping from our political culture. One point that features plainly in the troll talking points to be used against me, recurring continually on social media, is that I was ordered to take down material from my blog and refused.

> There is an extremely important point here. I have always instantly complied with any order of a court to remove material. What I have not done is comply with instructions from the Crown or Procurator Fiscal to remove material. Because it is over 330 years since the Crown had the right of censorship in Scotland without the intervention of a judge.

...

> What is even more terrifying in my case is that the Court explicitly states that I should have followed the directions of the Crown Office in what I did and did not publish, and my failure to not publish as the Crown ordered is an aggravating factor in my sentencing.

> If the Crown thinks something I write is in contempt and I think it is not, the Crown and I should stand as equals in court and argue our cases. There should be no presumption I ought to have obeyed the Crown in the first place. That Scottish “justice” has lost sight of this is disastrous, though perhaps as much from stupidity as malice.

At somewhere like NSA the print server can introduce small variations into the printing like margins and whitespace that can be used to make each print unique.

The Intercept knows all of this, which is why I suspect that for whatever reasons they had, they intentionally threw her to the wolves. The Intercept is not run by dummies.

If you can save a million or two in salaries for testers for all Docs products, for software that in most cases just works as well as in Chrome, why waste the money? Google is a company.

Automated tests can help with this, but you also need to maintain and write those in the first place.

Just trying to follow the thought process as an economist. It's likely hard to justify, especially with admins being quick at noticing these things and employees on docs products usually being receptive on bug trackers since it is a business offering.

This was a really enjoyable read and actually helped plugged a few gaps I got from Graeber's work. I personally think his model for where money originated is very solid. Early human tribes work on emotional kinship ties and obligations within the family without a need to precisely account for debts. Money first appeared with city-states as standardized clay tokens used to account for grain taxes owed to the state. Give grain to the city or provide labor and services, get token, give token to tax collector on tax day to keep your city-assigned plot of farmland. But after this point in his book he jumps straight to how gold currency appeared with the rise in warfare in ancient Mesopotamia, but doesn't really give a good explanation why.

Based on what I got from this post, humans are evolutionarily wired to like shiny things, and this gives us a competitive advantage. Instead of lazying around to enjoy the sunset after a good harvest, our ancestors would have used the time to make elaborate collectables for its artistic qualities. Despite collectables not being something you can eat or live in, they happen to be a good insurance mechanism during hard times. Other tribes, though untrusting and hostile, also like shiny things and will share their food with you for collectables during emergencies where you need to depend on the kindness of strangers, turning them into a way to store the value of the leisure time used to create them. I wouldn't call this currency because collectables have no standardized value, its value being entirely subjective based on artistic preferences. One hunter might really like the color of your beads and give you two pheasants. Another might only give you half, but will give you three for your ivory comb instead. But this system is enough to sustain basic barter circles between foreign tribes and account for social obligations over time.

This evolutionary tendency to like shiny collectables combined with standardized states is what I think creates our first metallic coins. King Croesus of Lydia is facing a major war crisis as the ancient near east enters an age of chaos and decides to hire foreign mercenaries. He can't pay them with standardized tax tokens since they aren't his citizens to tax. He can't negotiate a tribute with their leader in luxury goods and jewelry because they're ragtags gathered from all over the land with no single leader. What he can do is melt down his golden collectable statues, divide them into standard units reminiscent of existing tax tokens, stamp them with his symbol, give each individual soldier a coin for every battle they fight, and appeal to our inherent love for shiny things. And so the first gold coin based on the existing idea of clay tax tokens is born.
